Have taken an extremely risky short from 1.4925 with a 5 pip SL 0.5 lots to see if this range works out. Nikkei opened 1% lower, hoping that M15 spike just got sold into.

Quoting The Fool
Here's what Boris has to say at FX360. Do you feel frustrated?

"In North America the focus will center on the weekly jobless claims numbers with the magical 500K barrier tantalizingly within view. However as many analysts have pointed out the pace of improvement in US labor conditions has been so glacial that markets have not responded aggressively to the news. With both Geithner and Trichet on the docket as well currencies could be vulnerable to whipsaw action from the rhetoric.of the two men.

Generally the price action over the past 48 hours...

As I see things; We have a MAD situation.

China and the US are locked in an economic detente.
The entire market seems to revolve around an axis between these two giants. This has created some sort of order out of our financial chaos. In my opinion they will therefore do nothing serious to harm each other.

I think China is perfectly happy having the dollar as a base currency for themselves and the rest of the world. The interdependance is a stabilizing force which will keep the US from doing anything too agressive, and China is not likely to cut off their economic nose to spite the Americans who justify their internal growth.

Almost everything else is window dressing as various currencies and national groups and countries jockey for position.
Ah Luv the smell of a good prediction in the mornin!

Just trading the chart bro. Risked a little to see if we would chop, but I am happy to take the long breakout and see if the pattern I discussed earlier will play out. Especially the way the current H1 candle was bought perfectly from DPP.

Good luck with that. You'll get your sl back at least. These Tokyo breakouts are pretty weak, though, usually - don't you think? I usually show up Tokyo open expecting to scalp in some range if there's enough of it....

Has anyone noticed that every day this week we had ONE hourly cross of the weekly pivot (as in, open on one side and close on the other) and if you had bought or sold the direction of that cross every time you would have been a happy trader!

I have better picture.
Teal TL = more recent formation (1hr)
Blue TL = 4hr
Red TL = daily main trend.

Red lines are entries for short. Purple Lines are Tgts.

See your point, but I know traders which especially after 2008 were looking for stocks to rise 30% and then buy...

very interesting to keep in mind when we have a crash in 2012-2013.... doesn't work in FX market though...
I took the (short) plunge at 4915....SL now at BE
