now who is holding on longs?
Hit long at 1.4304...

Might be a little premature, but looking at a possible completion of bull flag on EG, and a grand fall on GU, I figured I would try for a GBP soft hedge....

There is also a potential Evening Star on the Daily Cable.

Can you provide me with details about your idea of trading the daily ?

Quoting AJspeed
Chart the pair, trade the system and stay with the trend of the moment and you will be fine. Don't try to trade a mini account with under $10,000 in it and stick with the Daily timeframe. If you have less than that then trade a micro account, the bottom line is trade off the daily. And if anyone thinks they don't have the assets to trade the Daily, then contact me and I will show you how to do it. All that other crap you really dont need.

I am thinking we may have a small retrace here and maybe a run down to 4200 before a major retrace. News at ten will redirect also. Gonna hang with this for now and catch the news and see what it does however, when trading the daily, I don't care much about the news since I ride the waves anyway and that is an advantage of trading the daily.

Call your broker and tell them to switch you to a micro account. ( You can still trade mini's with a micro if you want). If your broker don't do micros the get a real broker. Its simple really when you trade .010 micro lots and need a 500 pips stop on the Daily it only amounts to $50. You don't sweat trades anymore and you ride the waves. My trading improved 100% when I went to a micro. You trade the daily without noise and stick to basic fundementals, trendlines, wedges and channels and stuff and TRADE WITH THE TREND. You will be fine. I will be starting a new thread trading long term majors so just look for it Sunday night.

My Daily Chart is showing a Major drop is on the way.

We have now hit the top of the Daily Trend line at 1.4600 and hasn't been broken so 1.40 and 1.36 could be the next target.

too early..but that one made me laugh a healthy bit.

well..long predictors do have a bit of pain today...
I'm just sad I did not keep my short longer then I see it now...

oh well...I guess Obamas speech was a real barn burner last night...and todays followup may be in similar fashion...

best thing to do is hold off on long gents..and wait for actual upward movement...hmmm

remember...this pair does not have to follow any type of rules...never has and well..you know..

If they are drawn right by using 3 points touch method and use some common sense along with it. And stay on the Daily.
