Also, it GU breaks today's gap open it might be a place to buy. I will probably place a small buy at open. PA just bounced off of it.

If PA will ever let us get there. I think it is too risky now, watching PA drop it further. I am going to wait for London.

Well, made 19 pips on that small swing up with GU, but PA is driving me insane and I am finding myself watching ticks so before I go insane I am going to go take a few laps around the building. Be right back

AU PA is moving to "00" 92. Could be a potential bounce and short. So watch PA around it. However, I am not as confident in trade setups tonight due to the obvious news and gaps. Also, previous swing low was not great so the bounce, if there is one, shouldn't be that large, so this is a short term trade/scalp. But, PA needs to get there first and we are on Diag TL which is causing friction

Doesn't look like PA has enough to get there. Looks like a no trade for that setup

Alright, it seems like today is not the day for setups I met my quota earlier so I am going to take a nap I try to catch most of NY. Good luck with all your trades everyone, I hope my graphs helped at all. No one but me really posted today

Hey! I posted that great usd/cad setup that didn't pan out! Well, maybe one day that area will be tested. I also had a trade plan for going long at 1.0170 but I overslept. My first target was already taken out so I am back to watching. lol

No trade for me today apart from the little initial 30 pips gap trade which I quickly took. Although I was tempted to sell on the little narrow range up bars but that wasn't my initial plan though so I sat tight. Maybe NY might bring something.

LOL, a gallon of coffee? Nice 1 .. Just before you return, here's what I see on GU:

GU H1 channel has been broken. If at all I decide to go short during the day I would love to do it off nice PA confirmation around the re-test of the channel which also confluences with the 50% fib level of last down wave.

But before then, I would be looking at my M15 lower TF to see if I'd get a "successful test" of the recent bottom ~1.5275 to go long to the TL thus closing the gap. Well.. Let's see I never take a trade without...
Okay the gap closed as planned though I didn't take the long.

Now I'm looking to go short if I get good PA around my confluence area ~1.5350.. Well, waiting to see....

Looking at a quick short opportunity at 9230 on A/U. Quick means 5 to 10 pip TP.
When this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious s***.

I have a fade GU with 3 buys. They finally panned out. Going to close them now. My target bounce was "00" 1.52 and it worked like a charm. I am going to post some setups in a few min.

No, your charts were good. PA bounced off your Upper TL I though. Even though your trade never got to a setup point, like some of mine, your S/R lines and TLs were on the money.

UJ Pa is coming up to two potential friction points. The small blue boxes on my charts. Watch PA around there. OvT, our old UTL is back! If TL is broken, there is a good chance of PA bounce on horizontal S/R

EU bounced off interraction with Horizontal S/R and Diag TL. On it's way to "00" 1.35. On the shorter window you can see that we are at close prior to gap, which can also cause friction. Keep an eye on PA right now, if it is strong enough to move past current level then might bounce from "00" If not, S/R and TL as before could be the next trade too

Just placed a small short on UJ, with a stop that is above the next S/R. Not a big risk, but we'l see how PA moves
