to the FXCM traders that were short AUD and NZD. Looks like they have taken profit and gone long.

HI all,
I hope everybody is doing well here. Here is my chart. All the angle of deviation from base line (1,2,3,4) are in excess of 30 degrees.
I just went short at 9138, SL 9170. I think we will touch 9084 tonight, and if crossed next stop will be 9030.
I am not in a trade right now TH, but I hope you are right because I am bored out of my skull right now waiting for worthwhile momentum trade to happen. I just haven't gotten a good confirmation yet. Each time we had those nice shorts earlier, red and green candles were printing below my 34 EMA based on the low for a 60 minute and 30 minute chart. On my 15 minute chart it breaks through the EMA low, and the 34 EMA based on close becomes resistance. Right now, it is still playing with my 34 EMA based on the high??? As I am writing this, it is now getting much closer. See, you helped me kill some time. After the first candle prints below the low 34 EMA on my 5 minute , I will probably take it. Might see you soon. Good luck..

I cashed out at .9140, only picked up 9, but it is better then a kick in the head. Don't go long yet, I am in a short, and you are right way to often. What are your targets?

I just noticed we cashed out at the same point. It is hard to type and watch the chart at the same time-Cheers

The problem comparing retail traders stuff, is that they trade short-term, day-to-day, they'll buy at every support, and sell at every resistance. Just because 95% of retail traders lose money, doesn't mean that they are all wrong. It just means they don't know where to put their stop losses and targets. The long-term trend is clear. Down.

Gotta love this candle. If can hold, we are below my 15 and could start printing below on my 60 minute chart, and that would a realy good sign that we are in a good trade.

CAshed out at 9108. 30 points. once it cleared 15 min trend line it droped too fast for me to add. I will wait till retracement to 9124, and will go short again. Tight SL this time.

Thanks for the explanation. Then again, considering the percentage of retail trade to the total volume, its negligible.
