Hi Guys, This is too choppy for me too. every m15 looks so spiky on this hedge and every trade I take returns to entry. Somethings gotta give, but at the moment that something is me. C yall. Have a nice weekend.

Cheers mate. Should be good.

I was just gonna say, this PA is actually a continuation Bull pennant, but I cant get a reliable entry and dont want to play a break. Then we get this little run...

I am up 244 pips on my long from yesterday + another couple of positions along the way so I am getting pretty exited.

I am £14 short of hitting £ 2300 with this trade
I had the tp set to 1.6560 so am a bit annoyed I did not see it it hit 1.6534 earlier

Ive been wondering if we might form a head here and drop for the right neckline

Nice one! and well held. If only the Dow short squad would back off, we could see a little more pressure on the USD. Looks like it may soon tho.

Carefull not to risk 100 to make the next 60 tho mate. it is Friday.

I am going to give it a couple of 15m candles to see what happens all the postions are secured so no worries there

I think if we can get past 1.6517 it could get interesting

Of course now that I closed everthing it will probable go up another 100 pips, not that this concerns me as it could easily drop too.

Hope everyone is making some pips today, I still got my long open from 6250 and s/l @ 6400.

I want to see how this day/week ends. I got a couple of trendlines that broke to the north on my Daily/Weekly charts....

Also want to see if 6550 might break and hold on the 4hr.

Grass is cut.......Bob is ready...beer is nice and cold...time to party!!!

Well my 4hr closed about 25 pips short at 6525. Will move my S/L up to 6450 and let her ride over the weekend.

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend.
