400 odd pips is not exactly excessive for a week?

Many people have said many things here.
I only have friendly reminders to those who are new to this business.
Master the higher tf. Slow & steady gain is the way to go. Unless you're already sitting on a pile of millions. But you wouldn't be here if you had that pile would you
Good luck friends, see you guys london session.

Well it`s @ 1.6465-1.6470ish so i guess we are going up...

That means it`s up above the pivot and i`m not sure it can go lower anymore...

Don't forget to take into account those who trade the gap--- it'll go down more than likely before continuing up.

Where it's at right now is the UTL for 1hr charts.

The possible reason I am thinking to gap up (40 pips+) is currently the Asian Equities Market (Nikki) is in +150 and that is why G/U is in 1.6470 area. Thanks God I didn't have any short position from Friday.

Based on the gap up I am thinking to have buy order @1.6420 area to catch the bird because by Monday morning it might be in 1.6550 area

Retest of the prievious H on H4 will not surprise me at all,indeed I might eves scalp to the upside, yet I expect larger trades taking short positions for the next several days. Because of this tight range, I am not considering hedging my position with options, though I am tempted to get some Sepember's calls now, and load some more at the end of the month.
The advantage of having calls will anable me to short the market without a SL, take as much as I can on shorts now and then sell the calls later on with some profit. The only restriction atm is this very narrow range which makes this arrangement more costly, the advantage is shorting without SL if the ratios of calls are well geared to the established short positions.
In any case I shall wait till the London's opening.
Many good trades to all, might write more when not trading.
Make sure losses are small and profits are bigger!

I have only two things to say to those who claim you can't profit from the 4 & 1 hour. Planned from the 4H, traded from the 1H

Cable is trading @ 1.6475 right now ... this is a gap of +53 pips from friday's close.

HUH? ...Are you sure you're looking at cable? My feed shows a 15 pip difference. Friday closed at 6428, opened at 6443.

In UK, there is a few trading firm with different times
IG index start at 21.00 UK time while the rest 22.00. There is one TD waterhouse which start at 20.00
So different starting time will give you guys different opening price.
If encounter this opening price problem for your chart, refer to www.xe.com
This site gives the accurate price anytime although it is no real time but delay by 1 minute or so.

Hope this clear the air...

Nikkie does not open for another 1hr 40 min .... you must have some sort of time machine that takes you forward in time ....
