Bulls are not giving it up easily! Again, we might not get a close under 6915 and presented with a damn pin for everyone to go long on. Ok, fine, I'll add to my long position if we close over 6915 in 2m. Remember, I don't give shit where she goes, I just want to be on the right train when she departs.
Sell looking attractive? extremely short term..........

Very irritating PA made 56 on my short before it turned northwards, opened a long which took 30 minutes to go green

It's a frustrating day for sure bro! I have shorts from 1.70 that I've only booked partial profit on and wanting more of a downward movement.

I did have a nice short ride on EJ, she missed picking me up again for a short at 137.70. So, now I wait. Both pairs might end the day ranging.

I agree David! Ken and Pippi made some nice posts over the weekend.

I had asked Pippi to share his long term views on the mistress for everyone. I was hoping for some responses as to what everyone's take was. I'm afraid that I might not be communicating what I mean when I say I see sellers in this area and buyers in this area. When I do say that, it means you need to break down to the lower TF and watch the PA to get a possible seat. So, others that are reading this, please share your thoughts on Pippi's posts from the weekend. Maybe his conveyance is understood by some that don't understand my conveyance. I would like for everyone in this thread to be making money. Otherwise, your wasting your time and this system is not for you. Sorry, don't mean to be blunt.

Hi everyone,

This morning was my first practice run on the GU 15M chart. I normally trade the 1 & 4H but I'm liking this. The chart is from my live account but I didn't take any of these. Just marked them on open and where I'd get out. This is mostly from simple S/R & PA as I haven't really got a firm grasp on the MA's (yet)....

Green arrows were the candles entered on open. Red the close of each trade with the points roughly where I closed them.

5 trades, 300 pips, total draw down 20 pips, largest SL 20 pips. BE pretty much as quickly as possible on all of them.

The fourth trade I was a bit nervous on for the SL but seeing how it was trending down all morning, I took the shot. Actually expected that one to get stopped out. A little luck never hurts...

Now you can see the power of this system. Keeping your eye on the h4 and h1 with key S/R and PA on the m15 will and does yield some nice pippage.

Once you gain confidence, that 300 pips will be cashola!!

AmeriTrini,

Lend me your eye bro! Is 1.70 going to hold her for a move back down since we've made this nice new high, or are we going to get rejected and continue into the 1.71xx area?
