I'm looking for a long position around 4000. Notice how she's playing tennis across the ma's on the 15m. I've already played it down and up, now it's time to play it up again I believe.
Good morning EO....I am on the sidelines waiting for that seat...

Good morning! Cash is an excellent position to have until you find it. Did you get the short off the 1h 50/62 during London? She paid out nice!

Hell yeah it's better than negative! If it closes green, it was a good trade.

That makes two of us! I just woke up right in time for it as well. The prior 15m hangman we got before she rushed up and touched it was nice.

Good job bro!

You got exactly how many I got. Let me guess, your entry price was 4150? That's where mine was at. I took 50 off, then set the rest at +3 and final TP at 4000.

Outstanding to ride the whole way down fully loaded. I wanted to secure positive pips before I went to bed.

I woke up and secured the position about an hour after it was triggered... I was pretty confident based on the pa that I saw that it would retest 4000... did'nt expect it to be filled so soon though...

My son woke me up a little early this morning, so when I saw my position was closed and how price reacted at 4000, I went back long at 4029 and closed at 4125. About like the same position I'm in right now.
