Did you get on the short bus last night or were you at Mrs Robinsons?
I didn't trade at all last night... and Mr. Robinson acted like he lives at his house, so it was a dull evening of watching football.

Don't you just hate it when that happens?

Good morning everyone,
Last night was not too bad. I ended up booking about 56 pips, that was with a trade left open over the weekend though.

From my looking around, I would say that the predominent flow today seems to be bearish on GU, EU, EJ, GJ....Would you guys agree? Pre-market DJIA is also bearish, so lets see if that continues.

Being a holiday on the other side, I guess we should not expect too much movement. Do most of you guys stay out of the market on the holiday's or do you continue to trade?
Makin my way, the only way I know how...

OOK, GU broke 1H channel, and morning 6230's.
Now what? I see next SR level at 6303.

So far GU got to 50% retracement on 1H.
6307 is 61.8%

You sure it broke the channel? H1 needs to be closed across the channel before it can be called broken.

Previous candle closed 6234. It's above top line.
Or, it maybe on the edge - depends on graphics
So, to stay in channel this candle should close below 6234, or 30 pips down from current PA.
Let's see

DBHLC on the m15.
Big if here, but if this DBHLC plays out on the h1 and gives us a pin, we will see today's low again and maybe more.

Took a small long at 6188 for kicks.
Damn...I didn't expect this kind of action with a banking holiday. I like it!

For the moment I'd say she's satisfied.

It's a tough job being the only bachelor in the neighborhood...but somebody's got to do it?
