I went short on the gbp .. and missed the first short and just kinda didn't watch it.. Been short on gbp but it is STUCK....

So The E/J up off 50 then down off pin then up off 50 again .. 60 pipper.. Better get use to that if we start ranging next month...

Yep just taking what she will give me. She looks like she wants to go back up. I'm still long GU.

What's up everyone? My shorts on GU have been closed out. I'm not ready to reenter, have a look at this chart and you'll know why. I'm still seeing the possiblity of 655x.

My EJ shorts have been closed out as well.

We're pushing on 6529 on GU. If this m15 candle closes, a possible short if we do not go over 6529, SL of 10 for a possiblity of a run back to 6500 and maybe lower. Remember, mechanical in nature is how we trade her! Meaning no emotion. If you take the trade and it's a loss, so be it, wait for another setup!

If anyone is watching/trading EU. I see 4140 as a key level of resistance.

If GU confirms 6516 as a hold, then we will continue north more.

I booked some profit at 6520 on my longs on GU. Leaves me with only 1 soldier to fight alone. He's covered with 50 good ones though.

We keep breaking the 10 pip rule bro!

I've been out with the family, got the kids to bed and just got the charts up when I started posting.

Good job with the gump on EJ. I think Ken might be onto something with his shampoo presentation possibility on the mistress. I need to review myself for an opportunity. You know I don't really intraday trade her.

1st TP of 6505.
I booked 10 on this at 6511. SL is the same on the remaining position. I might manually close it and I will post if I do.

Just closed my short on the gbp at BE it was a blended ( stunt ) trade and had a bit more on it than I liked. Might try again later.
