Hello,

Reasons for my trade:
-Daily trend is down so I was looking for aretracement to sell.
-at the opening of Frankfurt cable started to move up,then makes a high at 1.60997.
-at this level it was barely touching BB upper limit.
-around this level it was making 50% retracement of the last day down move.
-there were other Rs to the up move namely H4 and R1.
-the price still below 50 MA which acts as a good R on 1h TF in a downtrend.
-Then when the price retraced a bit I took it short at 1.6091.
-when having all these Rs BB,50 fib,50MA,H4,R1 in...

Above 1.6100 in my view, and on this note, it's bedtime.

And I agree with Malcomb, that since the probability of cable hitting 1.570 over the next 2 days is quite high, then why place an SL at 157x i.e. there should either be a call for 1.628 with a very tight SL of no more than 50 pips imho during this downtrend, or a more improbable SL of, say 1.5200 - by which time a margin call would have stopped most traders out I guess.

I'm looking for a retrace above 1.6100 before I consider buying 'on the demo!!!!'

Good night and good luck all.

Yes, over 90 percent of the time the top or bottom happens during Frankfurt, and I find it very funny to hear people everyday talk about the market taking off at that time. It has something to do with how the automated orders are entered before London opens. I 'll have to find that old post from a few years back.

Check out this chart from just the last 3 days. The blue is the 2 hours before london, notice how it is top or bottom of the london session. It happens day after day on the Cable.

I hope this daily chart with the nice big fat blue line is clear enough for you

we are in the channel 6100 to 5747 . Pretty clear to me and simple.

why go making trade calls that make no sense at all right now ?. Not only that but your money management sucks. If you rally think risk is 1.5725 , then why not wait till down there to be making the long call , instead of placing stop down there and hoping for best. Your r/r right now is 1:1. You have to be right 50% of the time just to break even at end of year.

also we have had 4 red bars on...
lets see where we at by thursday then we talk, and please show some respect or do you need me to teach you some.

good notice.
but the problem is how to know if is it top or bottom at that time.
I'm studying the charts hard to find a symmetrical mechanism to correlate things with each other.

thats because they always (well almost always) push it up a bit before they knocker her down.. or visa versa..

I bet the same tonite upto 1.601x and then drop down into 1.58xx

Buy into weakness & Sell into strenght

So as price is dropping, the pros are slowly buying?? whilst everyone else is getting ready to catch the south bound pip train.. only to find when price hits X.XXXX.. she derails? And the lighting express heads north.. haha

Pending sell @6000 ; SL=6150 ; TP=open

sorry no disrespect meant ...

just there a newbies in here that blindly follow others .. sadly they do. so if you are making , what you may consider a high risk trade due to counter trend trading then at least post a nice chart as to your thought process....

then at least when the newbies lose their money they know what not to do next time ...lol
