yep there was a nice HL trade also think this had divergence but I'm not sure I'll need you to confirm that when your back if you can and a nice exit off the RN with divergence.
I didn't take this as was busy but what do you think?
Yes, that's what I would call reverse (some call it hidden, see http://www.babypips.com/school/diver...eat_sheet.html) divergence. In addition, there was trend line support, so good setup.

Fearsome rope's end!! Ah, BDSM, Caribbean rum, reggae music, and Jags. Those are the tastes of a refined person!

Might be relevant for your development as a trader, Sim, to acquire such tastes. You see, your fixation on boobs and 1min charts may be related.

May I suggest a trip to Brixton for Caribbean meal and drinks at Bamboula followed by a night at Torture Garden to take the next step on your journey and widen your senses a bit?

Islander, do you have any links to the proper Juice indicator? I did a search and it gave a number...
Ah reggae under the Caribbean sky - the Lashing Dogs come to mind - rather appropriate.....and the A1 Steel Band at Shirlies Hights in Antigua playing a selection of classical music also takes some beating....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

Here's a couple of juice indies that I have installed - cant remember much about them, but the idea is to think of them as a bungee indy and trade the pull back.......assuming that your eyeballs remained in your skull....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon11.gif

For SS I use this one as it works with these pesky 5 digit brokers....

Triple top with divergence, 00s and 5710 as both SBR and fib on top - doesn't get easier than that!

Nice volatility comes with these reversal times. Should be good trading for a few days and weeks.

May? I'll have you know, sire, my fixation of big boobs is actually related to my success on the M1! I simply label strong SR as 38GGs and weaker as those pesky sports bras, and I can follow m1 all day! No burnout for mee

I'm delighted. Note that you may have to dress up a bit for Torture Garden (see website for dress-code)...it ain't your local pub in Croydon. So you may want to bring two outfits or make some other arrangements.

Morning all.

It sure is Medici, I closed too early though. But the divergence was clear as a bell yet again.

Hi,

Is it my imagination or has FH been rather choppy of late. Could we see an improvement in one directional moves after August is over?

I can recall we used to see moves right on FO then a 50 pip move then a retrace quite often, is it my bad memory, the time of year or the GFC

Any thoughts ?

Well, I think there's a lot of uncertainty after last week's drop. Is this a major reversal or will thing continue up. So people voting in both directions make for choppy sessions, or at least sessions with lots of swings in both directions.
