Nah.. I live in the US and it's been worse than ever lol. U.S. stock market took a big crap today so usually when that happens dollar gets stronger.
True, they're hedging dollar with stock market and vice versa. The dollar is really strong now and will continue to go in this direction. Monthly chart doesn't look good for euro.

It's very close to 1.40 - I need to figure out what my plan is when it gets there, but it may be a good scalping place. USD/CHF is also approaching previous high of 1.05
sorry but of course you understood it was SUPPORT and not resistance....UsdChf yes you're right.....we'll have a strong RESISTANCE @1.05 and I'll be shorting from there....

It hit worm. I took my 110 pips and ran. I am done with cable for the day (or at least for now) lol.
Nice, I took exactly the same and got out. Very happy with today. Would like to get back in after a retrace but going to use some patience for a change.

we hit 50% fibo retracement which aligns with strong resistence leve. it should go up now.

  • Jan 21, 2010 4:17am Jan 21, 2010 4:17am
Waiting for it to reach back 1.6210-30 resistance zone to add shorts...unless it crushes it and go higher

Patience is key. Play the bounces. Good way to multiply your total number of pips in my opinion. If you gain 100 pips why give 50 back. Get out, get back in and make an extra 50. That's my opinion anyways.

Ctic, based off what you told me to do, is this correct?

The green fib covers this months high/ low range

the blue fib covers the weekly range

and the grey fib, kinda hard to see (sorry) is todays price action so far, and again, drawn from high to low.

This is all on a 1hr chart. I dont trade below 1hr, or I try hard not too. My main tf's are 4hr and daily.

I think you took good position but close very bad your position...I will save this link to my comp,you closed on 420 pips profit i think you can holding your position for 800,900 pips...

Anyway good job
So........

When I closed my long position at 1.6378....you said that was "very bad"...
you suggested then, in your words, "a better solution is" to put a sl at 1.6194....

Well right now cable is trading at 1.6150 and your sl is hit...

So....I sold 184 pips higher and didn't give my profits back!

but hey you "saved the link" already so you must know this!


So selling at 1.6378 was much better than getting stopped out at 1.6157, don't you think?
