I would sell usdcad if it comes to 303 as per chart, and aim for 127. It just might happen as last nights sign off post did really well and I was not there, just as I will not be tonight if this comes off. Not really game to put in automatic settings so just have to miss all the action as it is late here. goodnight all.

Hi Shermenater
I would like to ask you a question about this trade. There is a 1.2395 option expiry on this in a couple of hours. Does this mean that the bounce you hope for might be stalled till later. Or because it has broken that level now, does that mean the expiry is over. I wonder about this often and whether it must be taken into account. thanks.
Where is the option expiry information available?

It's always a little sick seeing the trade run nicely in your favor, minutes after being stopped out.

Things I'm watching, feeback welcome as always:

USD/JPY short @ 95.60 -- obvious SR; long-term SR in this area (95.70-80); 38 fib of drop down (95.61); trend continuation of the death of the dollar

EUR/USD long @ 1.3540 -- obvious SR with previous reactions from both sides in January, October, etc; 61 fib of this last surge up after consolidating a bit, trend continuation

GBP/USD long -- kind of torn here. 1.4340 is the closer, more obvious one, but 1.4240 has more confirminations -- "bucket" formation; 50 fib of the surge up from 3/18 and 38 fib from the swing low on 3/11. Something I'm never sure of -- if it drops that low, by that point wouldn't a bounce really be counter-trend?

Hi Here is my gbpusd chart. I will buy at 1.4278 if it drops that far. I dont really care about counter trend at the moment because the weak usd alters the dynamics a little I think. I am just looking at the S/R levels and the strength of the movement, and the confirmation of what the dollar is doing on the other charts at the time I take my trade.

I am only looking at 2 charts tonight and then calling it quits. The audusd for a buy from 6840, target 6942, which I am in, and the usdcad from 1.2403 for a sell which I am in, target 1.2303. I will babysit both and get out if sticky. Nothing else on my radar tonight.,

Watching 1.46 & 1.466 GBP/USD for a sell.

*Also keeping an eye on the EUR/USD 1.378-1.38 for a sell area.
