am a bit saddened though that my Big Mac vs BMW offer wasn't ever addressed again as I am fairly convinced I've got a good shot at not having to spend postage to Igrok's villa and may just get to ride bavarian this year if it were to go through

Best,

Cable seems likely to trade above 1.49 on Friday and to reach 1.52 by Tuesday next week.
I consider it hard trying to guess when in this market. Do you use anything else than i.e patterns or ATR to define ?

"Behavioral profiling" is another great thing which is hard to explain but fun to apply on practice.

Unlikely. Also think think I will be out of this thread pretty soon. Too busy and don't have much time now.

The feeling of having you here on limited time have been present since I entered this thread. Well, I guess we cannot cry, even though I'm very tempted, since I think we've milked you pretty good and we just should be grateful for the time you've given us here.

Well, I've offered my "assistance" (read;coffee-boy). That could save you for a minute or two everyday

Hi Igrok,
taking a look at GBPUSD I personally also would think that we go up to at least 1.5150 where we have a gap that needs to be closed. Taking a look at the overall price movements I would see the overall target within the next weeks @ 1.6650. Tough... not sure whether we go up to 1.5150/1.52 area and then go down to 1.456 area (year open) again.... or whether we directly go up.... I would favour going down again....

Anyway... always when I try to do such kind of "predictions" I am completely wrong. Would be very interested in your thinking about that... and especially... any one-word hint you could give whether it's profitable to do such kind of predictions or whether that's complete nonsense in your opinion and I should be more calm and wait how the formation plays out. Slowly I start to recognize that the biggest enemy between me and making profits is my unpatient behaviour I have to get rid of. Any honest critics are very much welcome!

1. Very likely outcome. I have almost the same view on this particular issue, but the good thing is that there will be no need to predict it. It can be tried and achieved by purely technical means such as stops, reverses, line breaks and so on.
2. The market (the charts) are quite readable. Pretty much like any text written in any common landuage. This reading can even provide information about the events that might happen in the futere. Understanding of this "language" comes with knowledge and experience. The more "words" and "sentences" you understand - the easier is the process of reading. Personally I don't thik that this have something to do with "predictions". It can certainly be profitable for someone with skills and knowlege and more or less useless and even quite dangerous for someone who is doing just a guess work.

So far so good on cable. I guess there is a lot to be learned.

Another quadruple divergence? This time on eur/gbp 1h chart. Having a small déja vu from last week where it hunted down weekly low. Seems like the same scenario on lower TF.

Strong support for cable @ 1.35 exactly.

Might make sense to look for a short in EURGBP?

Possible channel forming on the 15m.

I'm looking for an excuse to short it but can't find it yet, maybe that channel can play out.

Yep will be watching how it pans out.

What do you think of Monthly Cable?

I've got a TL from 86, bit dim though. Would be nice to have data going back further.

Don't got much. Possible a 3 TL touch around .3300 area.
