Hi All,

i have some question, i live in california, and the recession is very bad, state of california just laid off 22,000 their employee and a lot from private sector too, so what will happen if the next event about unemployment claim from US is greater than 620K, is the GBP going to north?, but i heard that now the GBP is tied to USD. so any opinion from economic expert here

thanks

you can't tell who is who because people use their real names in F.B.
Unless your Navin, now that was easy to figure out

I've had some questions as to why I took the long at 4188 (BOTH TIMES), so here we go. Notice the candles circled in red. The first candle typically would tell me to go long on the opening of the next candle except for one thing. We were sitting on the 15m 35sma/50ema. So, patience has to kick in and wait for the next candle to form. If I missed the entry, I'll get another seat somewhere else. Notice the 2nd candle circled in red continued it's journey south. Now, once this candle closed, we had a clean movement through the 35sma/50ema. My system...

Great explanation and clarity. Total logic. I like candle formations
and I love SMA /EMA's. Time to dig back into the archives and read
about your trading system.

I've developed the figurative "Inspector Clouseau" eye twitch, vertigo
and strabismus after trading the GBPJPY for several years and need
some serious calming and continuity therapy. Not ready for something
as boring as the USDJPY or EU.... so I been focusing on and studying
various GU strategies.

Always expecting the unexpected with this pair.

On another note:
Earlier, anyone following his method want to tell me why they didn't
initially take the 1.4265 BUY trade off of Abuawad's 2/18 daily analysis
before going south at 1.4205?

GJ is a beast to trade. I can understand why you've developed the eye twitch.

Candle formations, and ma's are outstanding. I absolutely love them. I wish my thread had more to it, but I'm bogged down too much atm. I do plan on adding to my thread and taking it to the next level.

Cable has the movements you'll be looking for, I'm sure you'll enjoy trading her.

Anyone favoring a break up? Dow diverging to the upside, dollar index diverging to the downside and the 4H G/U is diverging north off the 4100 level.

Hey Buddy,

Just a quick "hello" to you & Eo & crew.
How've you been?

I've been off trading, except for (1) paper
trade i threw out (6) days ago, for a "short",
on what 'see as a H&S to the downside on '3hr,
and Day chart, that's just dying to pop south.

-I've held short @1.4208 for six days now!!!
Ahh the life of a paper trader!!!
'Been too busy taking care of parents,
and family to throw real jack $$ at this mkt.
-Thank goodness the way it's looked!!!

How's the new home? Hope all's well Nav,

Jeff !

I think if unemployment increased, indicate that economic/industry growth decreased --> USD decreased in the market --> USD goes stronger --> GU go south.
During Global Ression, people who live out of USA including me choose to safe their money in USD, because more believable than Poundsterling.
I only trade XAU/USD. Based on USD news & Fib SR & BB20

Risk Aversion!!!

I think it will come to an end someday though. I believe the USD will loose it's status as the world's reserve currency, someday. But for now, it holds the title.

what are you doing hedging a position?

If you want to talk to someone who can tell you the pain of a hedge, just ask our resident navin. He'll fill you in.
