I am getting really tired of all these shockers in the market. Rumours, unpublished mpc decision dates.

I just wish i didnt trade this morning. I could have finished my 1st positive week in 2 weeks.

I hate these surprises. *yawn*

Tks for the advice man...I closed it cause it was a trade for 10% of my account...big trade for me Gator. Before I take more risks I'll grow my account and let the profits run with profit money. I'll keep in mind your words for the next weeks trades
nothing wrong with taken profit..

Wow.. I missed some nice action here while I was away.
Had a short running from 1.3650. Was close to my SL last night (1.3705)
Coming back now I see my trade in TP @ 1.3585
So some nice 65 pips again.

Now lookin for a re-entry as the way down seems open now.
Maybe get back into shorts where my last TP was? (1.3585)
I will watch that now.


Good luck to you all!

I have Bloomberg playing whole time. But they never mentioned anything until after it happened.

My trade spiked to -40pips and then corrected to -5pips. I should have cut my losses then; it didnt happen too quickly thou.

Next week is going to be very testing for me.

Rule #1 Dont trade Fridays

I broke the rule and paid the price.

Lets keep positive for next week.

A very good trader who helped me a lot would say, 'if you get out of sync with the market, take a break and come back fresh' ...... fwiw

When I feel I'm not in sync, and that irrationality starts kicking in, I take a portion of the money I would have lost trading and go buy myself something, eat out, etc... Saves money and improves my mood

Bear73,

Welcome! Its been a long time buddy! Glad you are back here!

This is one of my mentors. He is a good trader. I have a lot of respect for him.

I have been in this trade since the break of 3675 and I ma wondering if we are going to at least test the LOWS of 3595 again....We have been rejected 3 times at 3675 so why isn't price attacking the lows now?
Good to see you as well buddy. Been too long since we talked. The Euro broke the level and then triangulated. Its presently on the target for the intraday.

Bit late on the screen, but hope you guys get something from it.

I just remind myself "I don't HAVE to trade."
And then wait for a set up that I'm very sure of...

Once I accumulate enough money to be able to afford it, it's going to be flying small airplanes and helicopters for me. There is no way I could think about trading, or stress/worry 5000 feet in the air or flying over the mountains.

When you get the aircraft, send me a PM 'cos I'm a skydiver too......

Seems nothing can halt this massive drop of late! Hope you guys are doing ok. Managed a few pips but then gave most back with a couple of over ambitious trades! Biding my time now.

Couple of options...

Direct drop from here to 1.3483 without some retrace, i doubt...might happen in NYC session...

Gold might be played up to triangle's upper wall and then set to drop from 1089 or 1086.

Another thing what cable does because it looks weak and might drop to test low at ~1.5530...that will take eur/usd down.
