Hey guys... I'm still around but extremely busy outside of trading.. I'm only able to trade higher timeframes now based on time constraints. I see you all are still doing very well.. Keep up the good work and keep nailing those pips...

Big up Eo, Turtle, Cisco, Pippi, Ken and the rest of the gang... Talk to you soon...
I'm glad to hear you're okay. That was the important thing!

Old farts like me worry about our younger siblings.

BROTHER! It's great to hear from you! Understand about life being busy! We have other things to tend to besides trading, believe me I know. Looking forward to your return when things ease up!

I've got a 32 pip gap up on my EJ chart. Wish I'd taken the 10 bounce now No, not really, I stay out of those.
If this 1hr bar closes below 133.80 it could run down and fill it

Moral of the quote, take a trade, accept the risk and accept when your wrong. Get yourself back up and get into the right trade. Bad trades are going to happen, just like good ones!

Good eye! I have a TP on my shorts at 6485. Not a final TP, I can also see 646x and possible 644x. I don't recomment jumping in short here, as we can see buyers coming off of the 653x area, but a sell of the m15 5 with your m15 10 as your SL could yield some nice pippage. Price Action always leads the way.

If anyone sold off the m15 5, they should have 20 and cover and this point.

I'm putting my helmet, mouthpiece and 3 point harness setbelt on. She's on the edge of a cliff right here. I ran long twice from 6535, booked 10 and covered both times. I'm not ready to try another turn just yet. But, someone asked about how soon do I cover, hope this makes sense to them. Just because I got stopped out, it didn't prevent me from getting back in and booking more profit and covering. The ma's are open to the south, thus anything long is against the grain. Going against the grain, you need to manage the hell out of the trade.

I've got my eye on it. From here to 6510 I'm looking for PA to support a turn. I've tried twice already to turn it, made positive pippage and closed out at BE on the rest. Remember, it's Friday, the weekly candle is going to play out today.

Price Action will tell us when it's time to go long. Just hold on to your shorts if your short and keep moving your SL with the m15 5.
