Long taken on A/U at 9000 TP Daily R2 9025
Darn It! I thought it was going to be my end of the week Hail Mary pass!
Took 10 for the bag.

Hi Aragorn,
Nice to have you on this thread. Your cable position is probably doing really well, where did you get in at? I too am bearish. We are coming up to "00" 1.46. If it swings up, there will be a lt of with-trend friction points that I could jump in with you.
Hi Saxon,
I got in at 1.4835 (break of 50% fib from 1.4631-1.5051 on the 4hr). I closed everything at 1.4650. I think it is going to bounce (it looks like a double bottom again on the 4hr) and test 1.4720. Like you, I am looking to jump in but for now waiting.

I am not a great fan of trading on Friday so if nothing happen by end of NY today or Asia, then I might just not open another position on this pair.

Took 42 pips off the bounce with trend on "00". Should have let it ride

EU, GU and UCHF are the only pairs on my radar right now. GU and EU are in the same target situation for me, lows. UCHF broke my triangle earlier and I am waiting to see if it comes to test old TL and "00" 1.11

I worked on a lot of teams at GS and saw a lot. Let's just say that you would not be completely incorrect by saying that they are unethical cronies. There were a lot of times where I was told to look the other way and keep my mouth shut.

For example, the DCCW Program I helped start (Discretionary Covered Call Writing) program. Basically allowed certain people to get around restricted share issues.

Keep an eye out for AJ ...The current daily bar is looking bearish and the 4hr is putting a BEOB(?) at important fib levels..of course we still have to wait for the close.

I would really like to see it break 83.05 with authority. That level has really held two of my shorts before and then i just got stopped out.

Another two hours and we will know..

Why am I not surprised. Glad you got out of there! You seem to be a good guy and definitely not someone I would see associated with a firm like that.

Here are some GU and EU targets I will be watching PA around. Also, swings-to-bouces with the trend.

Ya, they are not the Golden Wall St example people should look up to. I'm glad I'm not there too. I started my own HF and can run it how I want, so I am happy.

I feel like I've been chasing PA all day. Think I'll take a break and return with a fresh head!
