The daily 5sma is at 390x as well... I think we will see this area if we break out of the channel....maybe in asia..
Agreed, as well, being that we're above the 15m 200sma, we could see the 1h 200sma which is at 4035 atm. Sellers will be ready to pounce should we see that price I believe.

It was an excellent call! I took it for 10 quickies, but she's moved very nicely since.

Good job yourself bro! I'm currently flat and waiting for another setup. I might be done as well, but probably not.

Have a good day on the road, I'll be on tonight late Asian early London.

Thanks for sharing your scalps tp's.

Knowing when to hold and when to tp when the markets are like this is difficult for us new guys. I seem to hold on to a +15 - +30 pip trade and end up with +1 and cash in +10 - +20 then watch them move to +50 - +100.

Knowledge is power as they say..

Sorry, I was away from the computer. No, I didn't take it. I wish I had. I got a phone call and by the time I finished, she took off. I was hoping price would pull back enough for me to get in, but it didn't. Now I'm left at the bus stop with nothing to do...dammmittttt!!!

Don't feel bad! I took it for a quick 10 and now I'm kicking myself for not holding it. Shit happens and we find new seats!

we're about to hit an old trendline at 1.3885 on the 15m, plus, we're less than 30 pips away from yesterday's high. Might be an interesting area.

I did not! I'm staying outta her way til I get the PA I'm looking for to go short. I do have a trendline on the 15m that comes into play around 3895 that I'll be eyeballing for a short. She's got steam from the DOW I believe and the EURO.

I didn't take it, either. I'm waiting to see what happens to the trendline area and yesterday's high.

Good. Coz I just did Took half lots for this since it's parallel to my 4hrly resistance & coincidentally being at the top of the channel.
Thank You
