Guys - Im still running shorts even though picture is unclear and im running losses. There are many export based economies that will find the appreciation of the dollar against their local currency problematic considering the recession and will take steps to buy greenback to appreciate it. The US banks want the dollar to appreciate and NY mellon has been one putting speculating bets and driving prices up - their MacDonalds analogy was ridiculous (Bloomberg etc)- there are several many reasons why a burger is cheaper in the UK than in US and Europe...
I agree with you on this and am only shorting into rallies. Where are you short from? I have one today at 1.5135 targeting 1.5090.

Multiple shorts - 1.498, 1.509, 1.515, 1.525 and 1.535 - obviously some stupid ones in there which Ive left running. I did go long in between but am making sure I keep closing the longs in profit. My strategy though needs a complete overhaul so dont follow this example. My S/L is high 1.545 - I think 1.538 is a major resistance even on the uptrend. Im keeping my fingers crossed but may be bad strategy.

She is going to go down but I think he has 180 in mind due to

1. There is a head and shoulder pattern on 4hour that needs to be completed
2. There is a retracement due to 4 hr 5 sma

A perfect entry would be short @ 5180 and take profit of about .14950...by close of play friday....

Good Luck....

1.5111 will be my confirmation level, if she play below this level so 1.4871 area will be my target. But if she play above 1.5207 (lime line) i think she will continue her move up...

Yes jack, all positions are short... i will add more position when the price move as my prediction. Actually, base on my system GU is stay arround critical level (1.5111) and bounce could be happened here but i saw sellers still dominant.... and time will talk. That's just what i see now.. everytime everything could change...

Hope it's help

Well so far the trend remains bullish until a lower low is formed in price on the higher timeframes (1 hour/4 hour), essentially, bearish below 5100.

I am going to take profit above 5150 and below 5200, and then look to short 5200/30. Can't be greedy on this one and hope for the moon. It's in a tough spot right now so take no chances and when you've got say 20-30 pips, don't hesitate to lock in a bit of it!

US retail sales were shit and that prompted selling, equties fell and now the asian markets are following suit. One would expect the european markets to fall as well, and this will weigh on the pound and provide some strength to the dollar.

Ideally, we may see a run up in the pound and then heavy selling that hopefully breaks 5100. Just a thought, don't hold me to it!

no good reason just learning from experience
when it try to reach 5200 last week, it falls to 149xx then rise up to 5300 (as we know)

now it try to reach 5300 but falling again to 151xx (150xx)... so i just thinking it will going up to 52xx or even going more far to 54xx
