It took a while to get to 5300 level didn't it bro ... like 8 months, but we nailed it
I got a lot of stick calling for that level mid last year, I plan on giving some back! Problem is .. I can't find those doubters .....

Cheers bro, hope you have a great trading week ahead of you. Good luck!
It did take some time to get down here and I'm not sure that it's over. I'll have a better view once this monthly candle closes. I'm still holding my short position from 1.7022 and looking for the 1.4xxx area.

The doubters are the ones who are no longer able to trade because we now own their accounts.

Excellent job brother!

I have a question that I need some response to. Does anyone pay attention to these posts? F_ck, even if you don't read my commentary, you should atleast download the chart, find your own levels of S/R and understand why you have found the levels that you have. Can everyone see where price moved to this week and what level of support I have on this monthly chart? Everyone should have been looking to be a buyer when she got into the 53xx's. Will she stay here, will she bounce? I don't know, no one does, start going down on your lower TF's and read...
Hello EO
I have been following this thread for a couple months now. Your daily/weekly charts and explainations are always a help. Thanks for taking the time and the good work you and the other guys did here. Keep it up.
Agreeing with LuckyLady, your posts are „always appreciated and looked at and absorbed more than you know”.

As for mrs, I took her @537 and @5389 , based on weekly/daily S/R lines, and M15 PPAs.

Good stuff bro
I've already bought on Friday. Here's why

Chart:
1. http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...stcount=200756


Since that formation stood & temporarily I will call it a bottom for at least a retracement & judging from how everytime cable manage to retrace back to 50% of the fall since 19th of January you'd have to forgive me to think this time it will be different. I will take my chances.
The 50% from this last drop is priced @5570 level, so let's see how this goes.

Good luck bro

Excellent post brother! I was long with you on Friday from the temporary bottom as well and I'm looking to get a new seat long again targeting the same areas you have looking for the right PA telling me it's time to drive her further down.

Again, excellent post!

Hey EO, I do pay attention to your posts that indicate levels of interest and learn about PA at these levels...I made 150 pips on the ride east 'down the valley'...I don't trade full time so went out early after bagging enough green ones - Fair play to those who made even more.

I follow this thread every evening, when I come back from work and benifit not just from the senior posters but also from the noobs and the various explanations that follow - this for me is priceless!!!

Trust me there must be a great deal of people who not only pay attention to your posts bro but also take heed.
It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it!

I am glad to know that I am seeing that like you guys are.I told a trading buddy Friday that if we get back to 1.5560 I would be looking to go short in a big way.Granted I will have my s/l in place but that was the target I had in mind also.

EO I very much appreciate your htf post and charts but sometimes let news hinder my actions.I have played the news wrong so many times I am hesitant sometimes to take a trade at all after a move like Thursday afternoon.

BKG, I understand brother! If your nerves are not with it, don't do it. There will always be another trade. This is an example though of where our HTF S/R rule. Now get in there and make some pippage!
