G'Day Patience, I was at DT thread, he posted G.Brown resigned and the release will be at 15pm , then I short G/U right away (didnt know it was April's fool) pocket 20 pips till he said that!!! so funny
It's all about the sentiment That actually happened a few months back. Rumour went around that he was resigning and Cable tanked until No. 10 issued a statement saying it wasn't true.

My other half's mate used to work in the oil futures market in the City of London. He said they used to start rumours all the time. He's been laid off now (like a lot of other traders) and he's trading for himself. He said he finds it extremely difficult because when he was in the pit he could gauge the sentiment and hear the rumours/whispers/trades that were going on.
Nothing worth having is easy.

I explained everything on charts and the Sell/Buy limit with SL & TP

for now use this set ups:

LONG U/J 93.55-65 buy limit order SL= 93.20 , get boarding on the pull back

LONG U/Cad buy limit order at 1.0085 SL= 1.0025 TP=1.0170

I set up G/U sell limit and A/U sell limit, check my previous posts

thats a good resistance line now. let's see.

is your ucad buy on? as usual i closed my sell too early, but that was one heck of a fall.

that should have cleared all longs.

I was too slow with my post but that should be a good level yes.
will go for that... Hope we can crack that 93.60 / 70 that time.. (even without NFP shooting it up )

Any thoughts on the CHF.... or are you done with that one?
still -30....
wondering if this is just a retrace now.. or if that was the bottom...
Turned out to be just a retrace.. so the SL hit today for -80
SNB could have intervened a lil bit earlier ... what a nice shoot up

Took another trade that turned out to be my fastest pips ever.
thanks to the SNB
Long EUR/CHF.. 10 min before the intervention
Got out with +190pips after 15 min.
(my TP was @ 1.4440. it stopped 30 pips below that.. to close manually wasn't that easy because of 4 or 5 requotes.. would have been some more 50 pips... but still lucky

After bleeding hard the last days finally some good pips cashed in.

Shahab.. I missed the U/J entry again
currently only 1 trade open: long U/CAD (only the first one from 1.0085 so far)

i think we can short A/U now, SL above the high of today

A/U short .9200 Sl=.9220

watch out your risk , A/U , U/Cad are highly correlated
