161.60 area is getting hammered but has been the main area of support for the past 14 hours. Rememeber, the overall trend is up, so this is to be veiwed as a retracement. Key levels to watch are a break of .59, then the psyche level of .50, the daily pivot, and then 161. A 50 pip retracement would be decent.

That's what I'm seeing right now. I won't make a video of this one. If you want, you can review yesterday's, as it is the same sort of set-up.

It looks like the break down is not going to happen. It is at the top of today's range. Still could break down, it's still early. Though, the uptrend looks like it wants to continue.

Hey Folks,

I posted a video review of the set-up post from yesterday's London session on the GBPJPY, and what transpired after the post. Also made some commentary on Forex trading and having confidence in your methods, my 2 cents anyway.

(It usually takes a few minutes for the video to finish uploading on the youtube site before it can be viewed.)

I took the video down for now until I get some issues resolved with it. Plus, I totally lost track of the days, and was thinking that we were going into Friday! LOL! I had too many family distractions this week, and not to mention, it was slow on the trading side for me. Maybe I was having a bout of wishful thinking and wanting to squeeze another trading day into the week! Hahaha!

Have a good weekend everyone!

Good Morning Everyone!

This morning, some key players are talking about a drive toward Risk Aversion to start the week. The USD has already gained some momentum this morning as reports of a rise in the sale of US Treasuries for the month of April, over the same numbers in March.

This may bring in some buying of the Yen.

Hope you all had a good weekend. I'll check back later.

You are right Des!

Just remember the trend is your friend everyone, so if you see any opportunites to go short, don't expect the normal 100, 200 pip moves. Be happy to take the 30, 40, or 50 pip moves on a short of the GBPJPY. That is, until the overall trend starts to reverse.

How's the painting coming along Des?

Well, if you leave the laptop on the TV stand, and get a wireless laser keyboard and mouse, you will be able to make money, while relaxing on the sofa! This way, she can't get mad that you have wires running all over the house!

Hey Everybody!

I posted a video going over the set-up I posted Friday if you're interested.

Anybody take a trade today? I took a short on the GBPJPY at 160.87. Moved my stop to B/E. I'm watching the Cable to see if it will break down to carry the GBPJPY down. I still have a long term buy open on the EURCHF.

Where is everyone today? I'm headed to bed now. My GBPJPY trade almost stopped out, but I've left it open to see what happens through NY. Cable is consolidating a bit. NY is a little slow right now. Have a good day everyone.

Wow!

I wish I would have stayed awake so I could have watched the PA. Oh well, can't win them all, or I'd be filthy rich! LOL

yeah today is a good day... currently sitting on eur/gbp short and gbp/usd longs both with 1% locked in each.

yesterday was one of those almost days again, where i was holding trades looking for a run and ended up giving alot back (up a small % but could have been better) ah well.

both my above trades where inside bar triggers looking for trend continuance.

hope your all well and tradings good

regards

Hey Guys,

I was spending time with family and missed todays fun. I was looking at the 157.40 area for a break up, but was away from the comp and missed it. Been my luck these past couple of weeks. I've missed out on a few pips, but at least I haven't given any back.

Alright Links! You're back in bachelor status for a while? FUN! FUN! FUN!

Nice trades Ic. Glad someone is making money today! I missed the boat yesterday , and today. I've got too damn much going on.

See you all again tomorrow! Cheers!

S/R levels to note......

Price is approaching the weekly and daily pivot, which are almost right on top of each other. (159.73-.88) There is also a prior S/R level, between the two, at 159.78. It is already showing some resistance getting up to that area by a bounce off the Psyche level at .50, but keep an eye on PA. If it makes the approach, and breaks through quite easily, it could be a sign of a fast run back up. If it makes another attempt at the pivots, but find resistance, it could then take a bounce and make a nice retracement. It also could find a range between 159 and the pivots, as it did earlier, at the end of the NY session. Then watch for a break of the range.

The yellow lines on the chart are the S/R levels, I drew that past week and a half, during the uptrend.

Hey Guys!

I posted a video reviewing this post and some setups going into Tokyo session. Sorry for the delay, moves already happened, but you can at least see what I was looking at before the moves happened.

Wow! The moves going into Tokyo are bigger that I thought they'd be. GBPJPY already moved 100.
