So Cable means GBP/USD or just GBP?

On the hourly chart, I have the cable comfortly sitting on the 0.500 retracement level (from yesterday's high to this morning's low in EST). It also stuttered at the previous level before making it there. If it goes up, 1.4880 will be an important resistance.

why gu so strong

is that to eliminate weak shorts?

fundamentally i dont see any good for uk economy indeed..ok controlling deficit and debt are good but it seems to me less growth in following years, therefore today's budget statement looks not good for gu indeed..so should we wait bearish resume in a few days or do you think we are going to test 1.50?

any comments..thanks in advance

Couldn't resist taking a long and a short at current level 1.4847 both with tight stops, it has to move sometime and after this long period of silence mostly heavy
Ok, short it is, first 14 pip not mine

Look at your daily and weekly, we are consolidating here. Compare this to last February. Just play the range.

I don't like the pattern right now on Cable, staying out. Still want to see how 4862 is going to hold.

That or I'm thinking maybe down to the 200ema on the 5min chart. By then they might be around the same,give or take a few pips.
Hope all is doing well with you.
Hey there Cloggie.Long time no see.How's it been?

Yeah fine, enjoying the WC now. Other then that it is a quiet summer, Cable is consolidating on the weekly and its share in my profits has dropped by quite a bit so am concentrating on fibre instead lately. How's the book?

I've been working on getting better at recognizing how cable and fibre move in relation to eg.Looking closely at how the ma plays as s/r.
The few of us yanks who love the sport are still pretty pissed about the phantom call that took our game-winning goal away,but overall I think everyone's had a questionable call or two against them.I guess it could be worse,I could be on the French team (don't mean to offend, but karma always comes around.)
Haven't placed too many trades lately,maybe 3 or 4 a day for the past few trading days.I find my book doing better when I trade close of London/beginning few hours of NY sessions.Best trades for me come when I wait for the pa to play through a 200ema on a tf and moves to the 200ema on the next tf.I've been getting great help with this.
How's the fibre going for you?

Hello IneedPips,
I've been using lines to predict support and resistance.
I dropped 50 and 200 EMA on the charts to see if there is any predictive consistency.

A 5 minute EMA(50,200) is wildly different from a 1 Hour EMA(50,200)
How do people handle these differences to attain predictive results?
