Agreed, I'm watching to see IF R1 at 6216 holds and also what Euro & Swissy do.....but for cable the trend is up and I'm not looking to sell without a clear signal.....and the last 1 min signal was a buy as the 6200 level held after 25 mins of sideways consolidation allowed the 1m 30 ema to confirm continuation....
There are those mornings when there are very shallow retracements and this morning seems to be one of them so I bought on the retracement down to 6205.

Edit...and out.

Nice....the pushes up are loosing their momentum....the moves have been 38pips, then 22 and the last 19, with the last high only 5 pips above the previous one.....IF we get a LH on the 1 min I'll take a half lot sell....

Morning's like this one makes me wonder whether I should focus on the Euro instead. So much easier to read.

I'm short cable from the retrace to R1, but what a nice short the lower high at 4502 in the Euro would have been.....

Agreed, the Euro always has a much clearer chart and cable's TPs frequently line up with €s ......cable just jumps about much more, thus more potential for profit......or loss http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon11.gif

Exactly, and I'm thinking that unless cable is really easy too read it's a better idea to stay away and trade the Euro.
