Yeah, today was a real disappointment for me too, to be honest we never really got the needed pullback for entry, that is if you use fibs, which I do.

Over 250 points north and I mannaged a score of - 30...pretty poor showing on my part.

Only that one trade earlier today for me, never tried another sell... atleast I made a seemingly correct choice on that one I guess.

Well done to all the big winners today, I hope one day to get in on a move like this and ride it all the way!

I am a confused bunny, but the charts don't lie. I had a short @ 15220 with a SL @ 15250 blown away thinking it would bounce of the daily down trend. Time to sit back and re-assess the situation.

It seems that the rally over the last couple of months on the USD is stalling and maybe weakness is now setting in. Only time will tell.

Second lesson learned today: Trend IS your friend. Why swim against the tide?

Thanks bro, yeah I had conflicting signals, daily saying down and weekly saying up...

You are playing the longer term trades these days arent you mate?

Hows it going? Getting some good pips in the bank I hope!
I too am now looking for full time employment, so will probably be in the same boat, although I have no issue with shift work which would allow a bit of time with the markets!

Keep well,

Ant

This is ridiculous! all my indicators are telling me to sell, fundamentals are telling me to sell but PRICE KEEPS GOING UP!!! THIS IS CRAZY!

Where will it end, 53/54/98!!!!
On my charts I'm looking at the very near end of a 3 wave correction on the daily and the weekly. For the daily, it looks like an ABC correction after a five wave downward movement; on the weekly it looks like the end of a wave 4, and the monthly looks like a wave three continuation to me......after the end of the retracement. I have been looking to short the majority of the currency pairs I trade on for 1 year, and I see a clear wave three unfolding on many pairs, including the GBP/USD, EUR/USD, AUD/USD, NZD/USD. Short term traders may be confused and are advised to avoid trading unless they are aware of what the market is in the process of doing. Swing and position traders like me are aware that what is happening is a final push up before the continuation of the wave 3 downtrend.

[quote=pawpaw1000;3556357]being a newbie is tough...


If u are a newbie, avoid GBPUSD like a plague. Concentrate on more predictable pairs like EURUSD, USDCHF and AUDUSD.

No matter how much u try, u cannot, for instance explain why GU burst the roof today. Now, one would not be surprised if it gives back most of what it gained today, come tomorrow.

That is GU for u

Sold Cable @ 1.5258 SL 1.5287. I've been roasted on shorts today so i guess this is my opportunity to recover my lost PIPS. Target is +80 PIPS in this trade. Let's Hope it Plays well. Anyone with me?

0800 Is not the time to try to trade. Both the London and NY markets are closed and the only ones trading are the retail traders like you and me. The best time to trade is when the London and/or the NY markets are open. That is when the banks and "big boys" are trading and moving the markets.
