Looking on this day chart, if we close here or higher then we would have a reversal chart pattern. It would also indicate that the previous day was indecision as to direction (doji) and today the direction was established, also stochastics are oversold.

So, if we are able to keep above the hr 50 ema, then longs should be good. Long at 1.6145, stop just under hr 50 ema at 1.6115

, and I must say I love Deboooo's utterly and unashamedly naked chart, with the support / resistance levels based on price action, such beauty in simplicity.

I came out at 1.6205. The daily average range of cable is about 200 pips, and from my server time, that would put it at about 1.6220, and about 1.6270 for other servers, but I'm good for now.

Anywho , time for

Cheers

Nice trade Godfrey.
I am watching 16240 for potential reversal. Prev Support and resistance, Technical bucket trade, and intersects exactly on the H1 200sma. It is also a 161 fib extension of the morning leg and often respects that extension.

Also $index has done some good mileage and often tends to bounce off the 80 level. Currently at 80.10 which may do it too...

It looks like she is starting to fall I will keep watching, I am not in a trade right now, waiting for BOE announcement

Yep, 16210 is a good level but did not get an immediate reaction so I thought I would wait for a potential spike into 16240 or just stay out.

I'd like to get a short in and be 25 clear and locked ahead of the BOE. They can say/do some stupid stuff and the poor GBP tends to dislike that smug old geezer King when he opens his fly trap. I cant get the last 2 or 3 meetings out of my head with those beautiful red stripes.

It looks as if this time he did not put his foot in it, are you still looking for a short as it seems the bulls are gaining control I must admit cable has me confused right now

Yep. She has cracked her daily range in my opinion. She has spent the last few days camped well below her H1 Ma's which have been pointing to 5'o clock for several days. Even if we are going to reverse the mid-term trend, we are likely to return to the H1 MA's so unless she touches 6150 where my H1 10ma is trying to kiss the H1 62ema, I would be reluctant to buy. The m15 35/50's should be there later too. My short at 16240 was filled so I have taken most off that and locking the rest to see. I dont expect we will head down till this bull H4 is closed in 40 min as it would be a nasty bear pin for then so I may just wait till then for another trade.. but we do have some data which may bring some risk aversion at 13:30. Very risky to buy here in my opinion so I am not.

Thanks Bud

My thoughts exactly I had a nice long earlier closed at 1.6204 I got out when R2 looked like holding, flat at the moment looking at some of the other pairs for potential setups

Sorry Davids I was away from the computer. I have some longs from below and have added on a couple of times and taken profit along the way. The one hr. pin bar from London is strong at the moment and we are in a consolidation. May be playing a little Gump on her. We are stuck between a 38% and 50% fib.
