I didn't get the drop either, my ass was wore out from the weekend. I didn't even open my platform until the US Session.
at least you had a good weekend, sometimes worth missing a big drop if you are enjoying yourself
please DON'T copy my trades I am still learning

I hate missing them, but we can't always be at the monitor. I wish she would hurry up move now.

Hi Eo

172 pips today under difficult trading conditions, your system is really starting to work.

Currently flat as it seems to be going nowhere in a hurry

Thanks for the help so far.

Here's a 1h chart as well. Notice why I want us to get above 3900 for a further move north? You can see it on both 15m and 1h charts.

Morning everyone! She's steadily walking up the 1h trendline...but the 4h bothers me. We've already reached the upper trendline on the 4h and the 10ma seems to be rejecting price.

Exactly! That's another reasonI want above 3900, we will have cleared the 10ma. We still have 1h 8m in our 4h candle.

Don't really like the 1h close. A lot of long top wicks showing price getting rejected by the sellers.

From what I'm reading there's a very real possibility of a worldwide depression. It might be years before the economy turns around. We may hit $70.00 short term, but I don't think it'll last.

My TP on my shares has been at $70 since November. I started buying when she dipped into the $30's, willing to go to $25 and buy, but stopping out if we broke $25.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a worldwide depression. Just like trading, the econonmy can only sit in one place for so long, then it's going to move either for the good or for the worse.

We both are. I'm sitting on some longs, but not looking like I'm going to get the TP I was looking for. Waiting to see if we cross the 15m 35/50. Should we cross it, I'll add to my current positions long.
