thks Garrie , i also have the feeling that we might have moved out of the flat range 1.48 /1.50 , trying to move up anyway, and pursue the trend , so 1.4975/1.50 will be my entry point as well ..... just hoping for pullback....

Hi Supermatt

The reason I trade only one pair (EUR/USD) is that all the pairs are basically based against two currencies: either the USD or the YEN
Now I know zero about the YEN.

So that leaves me with just the USD based pairs
Now because most of the action is caused by an impact on the USD more than the other half of the pair (eg AUD, GBP, EURO, etc) all the USD based pairs trade (statistically) in a similar manner over the long term .
For example, all the USD pairs have been going up, not because of the other half of the pair, but because...
Hi Wayne,
Having read your views on trading GBP/USD (too volatile) and AUD/USD (too boring), I just wondered if you have ever considered USD/CHF and if so, what are your thoughts on this pair?

Am I right to say that daily support line has just been broken at a low of 1.4821 and currently now at 1.4844?(according to my platform)

How many of you guys see this as just a abnormal market activity and think the market would continue on its uptrend with respect to old support when it opens next week?

Very nice input from you guys garrye,Dan and coscorp. Now,I don't feel that alone with my opinion.Even though, I don't post often,I watch out alot from you regulars

I definitely won't just change my opinion of a strong uptrend from what seems like January 2009 so lightly just because of a slight break of daily support.
(too many people have suffer from that,i am sure many would agree )
The market would have to prove me wrong first then I'll take it like just another day at the office and move on.

Lets hope we would be able to get in on a really long awaited good retracement and ride this baby back up to 1.5150++ when the market opens next week.

Hi all,

I guess this is aimed to the Turtles but what times of the day are Jacko's most active for the subscribed service? Reasons I ask is I am in Australia & snoozing during the NY & most of London sessions.

Thanks

I think Jacko starts his posts at 3am NY time or (London Session) until opening of the NY session. Unless he has trades earlier than that.

USD/CHF is a benchmark for the USD. If you look at a US$ Index chart, which is an aggregate basket of US$ currencies all put together, you will see that USD/CHF and the $ Index are very similar/close to identical. As such, if you trade Eur/USD, then trading USD/CHF is essentially doubling up - you're making the same bet.
Of course correlation is never 100%, but in this case it's so close that it isn't worth (IMO at least) trading both.

Nice observation bootsyjam. I might be wrong here but i believe the usd/chf also follows the stockmarket very closely. like the s+p. been awhile since i looked but i believe those charts are identicsl as well.
Whats happening in EUR/USD should be happening to you!

Looking at a 300bar long daily chart with last week resistance, i understand now that the trend is broken and is heading south right? (due to the break of the support line, and the up movement bouncing on it just afterward).
So, if we are following jacko's rules, at what price are we supposed to sell?, i don't feel like linking resistance line with 1-2 weeks highest points, it seems to short, and to steep.
Should we use the line i just draw (support line before the break) to sell?

Thanks Bootsyjam for the explanation, I can now see that the swissy is indeed like a mirror image of the euro. Also, the spread is better on the euro.

I too am looking for an answer here from one of the turtles, though I think they are sworn to secrecy...that being said I wouldn't go short yet I'm still looking long. Hoping for some p/a again around 4800 for another ride up. I know I missed the train earlier to 4882 (guessing that was target)

Went long at 4800 due to divergence on 4hr and daily in good support area and a tad oversold. also counting on the yoyo effect of the market to take me up for a 100-150 pips. Ill take profit anywhere around 100 pips because monthly charts are poised for a nice pullback and i dont want to be infront of that!
