AK4X and the others scared me out of more short...
Didn't mean to do that, just have to be very very picky about your entries so you can use much tighter SL's and cut your exposure time to absolute minimum in this kind of a market.

I'm holding one short from 2692 from what is developing into an apparent right shoulder on a dirty shampoo on 15m/30m tf's... the rest were 5-10 fixed pip scalps between the BB's. And you're right short bus, it has been work...

FULL ARTICLE: http://www.gold-eagle.com/editorials...lie021909.html
Interesting article
Snapshot:

Not only will the USDollar not provide the global highway for all to travel, but new barter systems will be dominant soon in working around the commodity price systems dominated by the US-UK corrupt price discovery systems. The other painful consequence to the new system soon taking root is that the global commodity supply routes will bypass the US destinations, enough to create mammoth shortages. Such is the fate of a nation thrust to the Third World. Its people and its leaders still do not realize it, as denial is ensconced in hope. The US credit supply has already been severed and cut almost completely off. Reliance upon the printing press to finance its own debts is a primary trait of a Third World nation, a shocking fact soon to be recognized.

15 min- slowly grinding down now under the 55 ema with the 5 ema following and 21 getting close. (big move in the next hour? maybe)

4 hour- 21 and 5 ema holding strong squeezing pa between them and the downward pressure of the 15min

One last touch.

I'm saying up, 700 to 720 at least, before down again. Four hour trendline is what I'm looking at.

So I'll wait. But if those Asians take it there, to get one last deal, I am ALL OVER IT.

I will hop in, and cheer for the Shorts like I'm at a naked Midget wrestling match.

My last activity.
Blue = closing shorts
Orange= Open

I was waiting to see some resistance around 1.2500 area, but My feeling was to see a slow break yesterday.
I was so focus on that that even without exposing my account more than 3% I opened too many 5% short trades to my account.
My symmetrical channel was broken at 1.2650 and here it was my biggest error done today, because I opened there 3 short trades around this area with more than 25% of my average and started to close some 1.25xx 5% short trades too late.

I could revert that situation opening 3 short trades more than 25% of my average around 1.2750 area, lucky or not my line resist there, Thank god, if not today would be a very nasty to me!!

My average shorts now above 1.3200.

Actual trades Open=all shorts
1.3740 50%
1.2745 25 %
1.2606 12.5%
1.2588 12.5%

No more than 1.2% margin used, so I have same amount to short again, hoping to catch right moves!!

This is MM, even if today was not my best day!!

I saw that some of you have their day today, nice one!!
When feeling is wrong I have more work to limit the damages!!!

My view is still intact!!

I am monitoring PA this week very careful, and until now my view it is to see new low.

I will only short nice rises now, mo more break trades for now, even small ones. I have my strategy to never let new trades to kill my margin.

This is forex my friend, you stick with your view, Neutral, bullish or Bearish for some good Term!
