Hey Ic!

I've been wondering where you've been! Glad you got to have some leisure time! Add about 2 more strokes, and that is about what I shoot!

Welcome back!

Hey Guys,

I had some family commitments today, but I'll see what's shaping up tomorrow, and probably post something.

Right now the GBPJPY is in a range of the .50's. I'd be watching those levels for a clean break, for a possible entry. Nice 600 pip move on the GBPJPY yesterday! I got out a little too early with my 100+ pips.

Trade safe guys!

Hi Ic What course did you play? Yep those doubles and triples can really hurt your score! How good you get usually depends on how bad your bad shots are! Everyone hits good and bad shots in a round, your score is determined by how destructive your bad shots are, not how good you good ones are. Lose a couple of balls or hit them OB and you need a whole lot of good shots to make up for them!

I missed the move, seems an odd time, 4pm here, no anouncements or anything, perhaps it was something from the G8. Ok Dad catch you soon.

Played "the bristol" just off junction m4 j17 I would say it's a fairly easy short course only about 6000 yards but the holes i had trips on was just me not really knowing where i was going lol then getting up there to see i really didn't need to drive 280 (into the rough) where a nice 3i 220 would have been perfect ah well felt good as the ball was going where i wanted...i just didn't get the "i want" bit right lol

as for forex i'm not in anything atm may play a break of the low (usd/cad) @ 15830 though i'm not really committed depends on the timing

Hello All,

I had to take some personal time to take care of some family issues... ex wife, and the kids mainly. All is fine, but I'm physically and mentally drained. Had to take a few days off from FX. Will be back at it on Monday..... Have a good weekend!

Thanks Brian.... of course I'm not yet asleep. I can't keep my eyes off the charts. I feel as though I might miss something.

I'm looking at the Cable, and I think if there is a break below 1.6250, it could be good for a 50-80 pip move. Just have to watch the News coming out of NY in a few hours.

I think Icarus, you need to go play that course again, now that you know which clubs to hit! Then give us a full report on Monday!

John, (Des) tell the woman your Yank friend said to take the weekend off, and to put the paint brush down!

Take Care Guys!

well playing on sat @ my club course i'm determined to get one single figure round this year!

well was short on euro today, hit my first tp then stopped the remainder at b/e so +<1% but i'll take it.

currently watching usd/cad for a short but i missed my entry on lunch doh

have a good weekend guys

regards

hey linksman what would you recommend driver wise? i've currently got a titlist 907d2 that i picked up as i didn't have a wood and though i'd better have one lol I know enough now to know that it really isn't the club to have if you've a natural fade (read slice with it every 4 shots or so lol) i'm 6'3" and have hit 300 plus afew times mostly 270 so i don't need something super fancy distance wise just something a bit more forgiving for my left to right. plus getting the 907 to draw is a pain in the arse, people wth a natural draw get straightened out wheather they like it or not lol

anyways sorry to post this lads but my tradings slow and atm my golf game needs to work lol nice way to be though i guess.

ps i know the above question of recomendation is ambiguous to say the least... how about drivers to avoid or aren't worth the money?

nice trade dad!

Thanks Ic! Driver wise..... I like my Taylor Made R7, with the adjustable weights. My local sports superstore had the new version on sale for $199!!! Sticking with my older one though, cuz I have it just the way I like it, plus I like the Grafalloy Blue shaft I've go on it.

Thought of taking the GBPJPY when it broke 150.50, but only wanted to take one GBP pair. That's at 150 pips now....

Hit em straight! Have a good weekend!

Hello Everyone,

Hope you all had a good weekend.

Just wanted to let you know that I posted a new video, covering the Support break on the GBPUSD that I posted on Friday.

Probably see you later during London.

Hello FX Dad,

I will be watching your videos on youtube and I've got this thread set to instant notification. So, I will be following you this week.

I've tried to view your blog but it locks my computer. I looked at it on a laptop but for now I will stick with you on Forex Factory and youtube. My computer has a Windows Media Player problem, it locks once it touch Bloomberg TV or any site the uses WMP.

I will be watching, listening, and learning.


Thanks for your work.

Hey Trade,

I'm glad to hear it. Sorry the bloomberg is messing up your connection. Try this link, forexpromanagers.com. This is a different version of the blog, but same posted content without the Bloomberg. I post first on the blogs, before FF. So you will receive the info faster if you go to the blogs. I'm still experimenting with the blogs, websites, etc. Hopefully that link will work better for you. Thanks again!

Chuck

Here's some of my charts, with S/R levels that I have. I'm not saying they are all perfect.... Just keep in mind, my most active charts, as far as my S/L lines, are the GBPJPY and the Cable. S/R lines are in orange.


Just realized I have the USDJPY on as a 1Day chart. I normally watch 1H. But lines are the same. I don't trade the USDJPY much. I usually watch it as reference when trading other JPY pairs.

Posted a couple new videos. Just going over S/R levels again. Focus on the GBPJPY. Nice break of 148 support, for a quick 90 pip+ run down, after ranging between 148 and 148.70.

Wow John!!! You are a pro by now! She keep changing colors on you? Did you see the post where I told you to tell her, that your Yank friend, told her to let you put the paintbrush down for the weekend? LOL! I reckon she said "NO!"?

My weekend was very quiet. Kids were with their mom. I helped her move all week, so I was in bed, resting my old bones. She lived on the 3rd floor with no lift! Fun, Fun, Fun!

Glad to hear from you Sir! Cheers!
