Another 5 long. Same strategy.
I'm sidelined for the moment.

2.0104 (early Europe high) is now a support level. Prop points below include 2.0089 (today's Asian session top), 2.0074 (yesterday"s peak), 2.0063 (today's Asian session base), 2.0035 and 2.0000. TP in the distance at 2.0510 - I'll lock in manually 1 lot at a time on the ascent. SL 2.0062.
It's dropping below 2.005 - tempted to go long again with 30 SL with entry around 2.0035. Anyone else?

I agree but I think a retracement to say 2.0050 is imminent, perhaps in the next two to three hours? Anyone agree with my (newbie) opinion?
I should have gone with your judgement. At the time I disagreed with you. I answered by going long - suggesting my disagreement. If praise is what you wanted, Sir, consider it done. I can't write more, my keyboard is getting wet from my tears.

Again. TP in the distance at 2.0510 - I'll lock in manually 1 lot at a time on the ascent, hopefully! SL 2.0000.

nice profit taking... About time..

Previous 4hr formed a nice pin-bar with all overbought indicators... That was an easy trade at breach of R1 0080...

I got in short at this level... Took partial at 0030 and I'm looking for test of fib-pivotal area 0011/0017

I don't belive in cable below 2.0000 today.

Thank you. Sorry but I'm a bit excited about going live later this week. I don't know if I will be able to put my real money where my mouth is. Currently: Buy limit @ 2.0012

I thought I knew it all when I had early success. And I'd brag terribly to whoever would listen. I'm a little better now. Age I guess.

If I'd called it right like you did earlier I'd be pleased. Like you were. No apology needed. I wasn't having a go, just a laugh. Not at you, with you. Nobody had expressly commented on your view before it actually played out. Have a great day and successful trading live.

morning all,

sorry I dissappeared yesterday, message for active x kept popping up, then this site's server went down, then I kept getting an admin username and password pop up..I gave up.

didn't go short gbp yesterday after your warning cesar went short this morning, but just closed them and am waiting to enter again

hoping for a nice euro correction, 13440-60 area would be nice to go long again.

There is some talk in the market that a U.K. clearer bank was the supplier in this retracement. Apparently this U.K. clearer bank made such a thing to help undermine the effects of a wrong-footed cable hedge-fund trade.

Unconfirmed, but for me, this is very likely.

What do you think?

What a brilliant welcome. Thanks again. But did you notice by how much my buy limit order missed? I'm scaring myself - Soon I will be taking orders for Forex forecasts...

My friend Fibo tells me that this retracements stops at 2.0024. I might go long there when we get there

Stops below 1.9964

Any other ideas?

EDIT: Cesarnc, you think 38.2 fibo will hold?

Carry trades unwinding reported, too. Ahead of "European bond redemption from Apri 19 to May 1st", whatever the hell this means.

You saved yourself a good $, then...

Now Cable is retracing more technically, too. We can see where are the supports and resistances.

Carry trade activity is likely to get thing crazy yet. 14GMT and 16GMT fixes are likely to show the way.

Closing > 0044 fib is bullish. (and then I had missed a hell of a dip 0015 to buy )

09:23 Rumors are maiking the rounds that a CB was checking rates in the GBP/USD. There are times when the "where there smoke...." makes sense, but do we really think a CB will intervene in GBP? Mr. S are you listening?

Dont ask me who's Mr. S. The analyst is gone nuts, too...
