hello MH trader,

expiring means that the option-contract ends. the writer/seller of the contract hopes (some say even tries to make) the option worthless. if the option is "in the money" the writer has to pay or buy the ammount of currency at (or untill???) expiry. this is specefied in the option.

kind greets, pax

aww, just wanted some clearing thanks.

Happy trading day to everyone. I am a big fan of the GBP today and thank all those who helped it fall back to 1.6482 (where I got out of my short position from 1.6572). I have been jumping in and out of chf and cad positions today, too. Not bad for a Friday. Stay focused and trade well.

Indeed quite a Friday
I shorted the south impulse on EU, hope the rest of the guys also got their profits from today's movements.

I think I'm done trading for the week so chances are that tonight I'll Keep Walking in the bar
Enjoy your weekend chaps.

Agree that this is a good thread, because it strokes my ego to see someone trading with some of the techniques I use -- LOL! It is a good thing to recognize possible significant levels, but more important understanding why they may be important, and once you begin to see the hook or retracement, it is a wonderful thing. It brings fti's teachings to life in the charts. If you are not trading with this information in mind, I suggest visiting this thread. I think it opens some TA discussion, though. Not sure how that will go here.

Hi Guys,

I read in the thread somewhere cant remember which post fti said that he sends second scout to check on the first one. are you guys doing that too?
Rite now I'm very confident in rescue but still have some problem with attack.

Have a good weekend

Hi Pete,

Take care... the money is in attack not in rescue...... IMHO something is not right
in your approach.....

About the 2nd scout....., I don't think so, but I can be wrong....

I always take to the second scout as the first flow of the attack,
not to check the first one.
The first scout is to check, you don't need a 2nd "checker".

I hope that help you.

Rgs,

About significant levels---- fti taught us support/resistance are alive and dynamically changing with current price actions.
About your techniques---- I'm curious, because as far as I've been reading, you are the only one in this thread that never loss

After the scout, if confident in the direction but market falls into congestion, can send a checker. It's a way to increase the scout size with some pips bargain, but make sure your account size can accommodate the base size. Later, when attack in progress, can reduce attack size to make sure total position size is within risk appetite.

Hi Textor

Sorry I didnt put it clearly. after I put scout in then later I put the army in when I saw the prices came to my direction. But after a while price started to hit against me very badly. So I remember fti said about send another scout to check on with the 'ef' leg (abcdef legs). I think I have to check what he said again.

@Thank imjscn for your advice.

Hope you all making good pips,
Cheers,

Morning chaps

Quite a Monday morning, from what I see on the charts. The green money's taking a lot of fire again and the Yen girl is still playing its own game. I wonder how this is going to end.

Cheers
