Really? Does anyone else? I did read it and saw there are no live calls, just posts about how much money he's making. And then he links to his new site that offers paid access. Must not be making too much, though he claims to make 15-25% a month.
Well not lately, but I have before. I don't know if his blog is all about paid access services he provides, but when I read it in the past I took it as a trader sharing his daily experiences and struggles like all of us. For that I commend his efforts and for sharing them.

Now if he's all about bragging or advertising then I don't really like that, but I didn't get that impression from him which is why I posted an encouraging and positive message on the heels of your negative one.

hey guys,
what do you think about the "carry trades" for example the aussi in relation to eu would have a long way to go to get near the 50% retracement on the fib from march 09 to november 09.
throw your thoghts in please.

Gator,

Well done...good target....I missed this one and did not chase it like I almost did....it would have been a good entry at 3756 area...but let it go due to being uncertain....

Your target was reached! Looking for a re-trace now? Or further fall with PA today?

LTL now at .3557 today.
Quoting Leche Mocha
There's a LTL on the daily chart down at .3573. So I wouldn't be jumping in long until it atleast tests that. Otherwise, riding the short down has proven to be profitable and way less stressful than trying to catch a falling knife.

My first week as a live account trader = 400 pips. What a lovely start. I even played NFP results ok - not great but ok.

US Equities fighting off lows, I'd imagine that is what's stalling e/u from further downside. As much as hate to pull agaisnt the US market (guess I'm a nationalist) I wounldn't mind seeing a retest of the morning lows in the equity markets so I can capture a few more pips and close out the week.

Well now that was a nice present, I'll have to start asking like that more often. About and hour ago I was resigned to a flat a market until next week, glad I grabbed some breakfast before making any decisions to close what I already had.

Decided to close my short at 3613, now i'm flat e/u, am tempted to open another short b/c we just broke my weekly R2 and monthly R1 but that wouldn't be smart (hate buying on the bottom, bad r/r), if anything may add a short if it retests that area.

I know this isn;t the u/j thread but currently I've got a short there as well, its more of a swing trade, I'm thinking we'll see some downside come Tokyo session Mon.
This is what awesome feels like

Thanks. Gonna stop trading for the week. Cause I know I would screw up now, chasing it. Fresh start next monday.

Good luck to all of you.

One thing I keep noticing about spikes after the news. The first move often seems to be the real direction that it will take. It might re-test into the other direction, but its usually fake / fails. Today it was the same thing (if you zoom down into the m1 TF u can see it). And similar with the last NFP news. This is not a suggested strategy, just an observation from a fairly newbie trader.

Maybe the more experienced traders in here can comment on that.
