good morning, when would you put your s/l at be or +3?
I've booked 40 and she's covered now that the US is open and underway.

Good morning EO and everyone. I hope some of you enjoyed the ride up. I managed to squeeze a few pips out overnight. Currently have a small long position in the Mrs and Mistress and I'm also short both pairs. Short the Mrs at 6539 and the Mistress at 134.61.
I unfortunatley did not get to ride this up last night. It missed my PO by 4 pips and I didn't feel like staying up to get back in or chase it. So, I went to bed and woke up to the short from 6540.

Debooo,

What is that 6502 refers to???is that the ema 21?
Debooo doesn't use the ma's to call out price levels, he uses higher TF S/R.

Good Morning/afternoon ,

Hope everyone had a great weekend...EO let me ask you where did you place your SL..I went short at 6545 and 6536...I placed my SL at 6561
Is that not too tight??
My SL when I entered was at 6560 myself. Too high, no, not really, the tweezers at 6552-6553 was the barrier.

Wow 4 pips that sucks. I didn't get in the GU long until Eu/Lon on the retest of the 1hr 50 and 15 min 200.

That's where I missed the boat! I watched it fly like a banshi and said see ya! I should have pulled the trigger on the turn of the 15m candle, but set the PO and wanted it to grab my ass and she didn't. Little naughty bitch! My shorts this morning though have made me happy. I had a busy weekend and didn't get a chance to post charts or really anything. Partied with Bob and friends and enjoyed some golf as well.

Thanx,

That has been a good short so far...What are you targeting? 6470 a retest of the recent H1 highs??possible?

I'm glad you had a fun weekend you deserve it.

I really felt bad for Tom Watson. He played a great tournament but his putt on the 18th hole was awful and right then I knew he wouldn't win the playoff.

I can really see 6300 (NOT in today's US Session)! Today's close will be the key! Could take me out and go higher, but I'll short her again at 6600-662x.

I feel bad for the old geezer as well! It would have been awesome to see him win in. He deserved it!
