@yonnie - I fully agree with you about the weekly range
Just for today, do not worry...

There are just under 40 minutes to go before the 4H box is completed. This is one large box already 139.71 to 143.13 plus buffers and spreads.

Looks like 350 pips already. I find myself in two minds whether to trade this setup this week or not?

How are you guys looking at this?

@tarquin1 - to answer your question, it is not a bank holiday in the UK
I prefer not to trade this week. From 'the' previous experience, it seems like, if the box is more than 250pips, the chances for the trades to hit bot SL is very-very high.

But... like Yonnie said "this week might be a BIG FAT move"..!

For those of you who feel this week is going to be one of those ranging buffer high bounce buffer low weeks, buy on the low, and sell on the high, otherwise, trade as normal.

I think that some fundamental analysis is needed here. Who or what is moving this market?

...The YEN gained a foothold on the back of comments made by Mr. Yen(Former MoF Chairman Eisuke Sakakibara for you younger readers) said "Mr. Fujii probably doesn't think the current (dollar-yen) levels are abnormal. Even if USD/JPY drops below 90.00, he probably wouldn't find it abnormal. Should the pair sink below 80.00, then he would likely take that as something abnormal." Mr. Sakakibara, who was known for his ability to move markets in the past, looks like he still likes to “sing” hen the spotlight is on him...

You'll have to get clearance from Bonita. . .then we can talk
Bonita nixed the idea, Andante. It's probably for the better . . . I wouldn't want to break the two of you up.

Please, Penfield, just call me Yen. When people say Mr. Yen, I think they're talking about my Dad.

I will probably set a buy pending order today before UK open time because base on 4 hour and 1 hour stochatic chart (14,3,3) it is over Sell. Some more, the candle is hit the resistance on the daily chart. So, techically it would be bounce back.

I'm assuming you actually meant "support" rather than resistance? If so, I would certainly agree with you.

well come back Yen

but actually, do not go long buddy, buritto or not such move means something i entered short small position at 141.19, not according to Ace. according to Ace no trading. this one is a crazy box.

Sorry, I mean over sell and not over buy because I think it is on down trend now. So, I think it could be bounce back for some time before it come down and break the resistance again...

i will also trade the reversal (similar to nick's method). but will target TP1 or TP1.5 as it's a counter-trend trade.

My target will be 143.00, about previous support line, TP1.

after a crazy run, i guess there would be a big correction. That's a counter-trend trade but i will lock the trade once it reaches 40 pips using DIBS method. (I will also enter trade according to breakout of the 4hr IB)

well come back Yen
Uh, thanks, Shiko, but you're the one on vacation. I'm still busy here in Mexico tending to business.

When are you back from vacation, and how will we know the difference?
