GM.....need I say it .....I've just closed mine at the mid point of the longer 1 min candle that was the high.........

Edit: you had a better entry, I was a little late....I'm now waiting to see if we get a pull back to the earlier highs ~6120 - 22 for a continuation buy.....

Closed the longs at 1.6137 (1.6100 entry before Tokyo open) as I have missed the 140 zone, news from Asia does not inspire confidence.
At the London open I shall consider another trade, would like it to be long.
We shall see what the market will offer.
Before the Tokyo open last night, there was the news release about the BOJ being ready to continue the rescue package, so I was expecting a larger move on cable to the upside, 30+ pips is what I shall be happy with.There might be the Frankfurt pullback and the London push till the US open, if not for the rest of the day.
Make sure losses are small and profits are bigger!

Thanks......I'm a little surprised about cables reluctance to move - its range so far in Frankies Hour is 4 pips less than the Euro's and its made no attempt to follow €s fall.......I've just gone long off the 6125 level - also the 5m 30 ema.....

Yes, LO was about selling today. Short moves up to pick up sell orders. Good Euro trade

Thanks, my Euro entry was good, but I missed a confluence of time lines at the low and so I was slow closing as I was looking at the 25 level.....

Well done. 6166 was Friday's Asian low. Unmissable spike down on H1 chart and as expected plenty of sell orders there.
