Sorry guys, fired up the computer when I got in and only just had chace to get back to it. not been missing much by the looks of it..

I know you dont look at the smaller timeframes to much but the 5min is showing conformation of buyers drying up..

anyway I've got to shoot off now to play footy (soccer) may drop in later if I get chance to see what I've missed..

Cheers.

Hello ; EOhater..and everyone,

Just finished reading the thread and saw the pin bar, Took the trade didn't get filled great but didn't jump in with both feet so added to my trade higher up bring my entry average to 65. area.. The area I have circled when the red candle opened they were both flat tops. Was that a signal for a short also ? . I then added to my position once more .. Unfortunatelly my wife locked her self out and I had to take her some keys.. So closed with a
-4, Before trade could complete it self. Took same trade off another pair got 18 .. so all good.

Thanks Ken Lee

Good Trading To All

What's your take on cable atm?

She is as tight as the Euro, which means we could see this until after the rate decisions on Thursday or even longer.

But when she does finally break either North or South, then get your popcorn ready!!!

I feel like ive been left behind, I've just discovered this thread........

Having spent an hour digesting SOME of this thread I thought I'd pop a post in of something I'd like to see and I'm sure others would too.

I get the impression you don't like metatrader, but do you have a MT account you are using for which you could provide an investor password for followers to see your trades.

While I'll leave it to EO and others to speak for themselves, I'm not sure what it is you're looking for?

The goal here is to "learn to fish", not to blindly follow anyone else's trade signals. There are many different trade setups detailed throughout this thread, and the goal (at least in my view) is to share insights on the market so the readers can learn to see things from the other more experienced traders.

Good luck.

I shouldn't have gotten into this trade. My boredom overcame my common sense. Trading at this time of day is risky, at best.
