1.5592 break had strong follow-thru all the way up to well-above 1.5683.
Market liked Geithner speech .
Expanding momentum and pressure.

One of the trickiest times to trade is when someone of impact speaks...it can be cataclysmic.

If you wanna short, short yourself and lose your money. Don't confuse other guys just because you are losing money and you hope it goes down. I was almost sure that it was going up. I freaking lost my chance to long cause of all these losers who said it will go down but its flying high and that you hope won't happen

i guess a good idea is to look at the premarkets numbers .if are green the move will be targetting the resistance if numbers are much more than minus 110 before starting the trading session on equities we will be heading to suport cause i am thinking the big guys know ahead wht the important guys want to say.

EUR/GBP is falling and EUR/USD and GBP/USD are both rising.

The EUR/GBP should be used to compare the strength of the pound vs euro and vice versa, and if the dollar is weak, like this week, you match the strong and weak currencies together and away you go.

Who do you think makes the trend? The big money. We have no influence on it.

The FX market has been extremely correlated to stock indices. The DOW double topped today.

These bear market rallies can only last so long before they fade.

I discovered some small 60min breakout strategy which i would like to share with some traders who are upset on losses.

What we see is the 60min chart of Gbp/Usd. Since yesterday`s trend was "UP", we will concentrate only on buying. This is a Breakout strategy and hence we will try and construct our chart with lines. Just use a vertical line and place it at 24:00 or 00:00 when the day ends and new day begins. Now look back and try to find the most recent high in the chart. Mark it as "A". Now find the most recent Low and mark it as "B". These are the points you should place trades. So, mark them with horizontal lines for your own reference. Place two trades as follows:

1. A long entry at point "A", with stop loss at point "B".
2. A short entry at point "B", with stop loss at point "A".

A good way is to trade little if the breakout is against trend and trade a little more, if the trend follows...

And now, we will see where to take profits...

1. Once you see a 60min candle completely away from the point of entry of the trade, be clever and move your stop loss to the entry point.
2. Wait for hours until you find 1 anti-trend candle (Bearish in this case). Don`t rush... just go for a walk and come back and look at the chart. When you see that the anti-trend candle has formed over the 60min chart, just close the trade and wait for the day to end. In this way, you limit your losses and grow your account over time.

Hope you find peace and wealth from now on. Remember, as i`ve said earlier, patience is the key to success.

good luck to all!.

hey jack
I was reading the geithner speach and i had an idea pop into my head...could it be possible that this strong rise in the gbp is the banks selling there shorts to raise that 75 billion after the stress test?

Hey Jack How is it going? My most conservative uptrend channel had said 1.545 as the upper limit to the upside - thats clearly been broken - I'm thinking now that Banks had a nice plan to get rid of their bad assetts by unloading it on tax payers - i.e. if the situation really wasnt as bad as everyone thought - so now everything is so excellent that they are paying TARP money back by causing a major dip by saying depression imminent and now going back up saying oh we didnt really need any money - weve made enough on the stock market and currencies and written off our bad debts by using tax payers money - plus made huge bonuses - doesnt that infuriate you guys? I still think lethargic recovery as I certainly am happy wearing my old clothes and making sure I make everything last 10 times longer as who needs to buy all this crap that these banks and companies are throwing at us. Buy cheap - no one cares anymore except in LA.
