That's what you said last night to me when I was just about the only one shorting this, and guess what I was also just about the only one who made any money. 't Was only a measly 50 pips though.
All fun and games.
Have a great weekend!

Could it be that there is less emotion with the charity account than your own? Just wondering how you feel when you make the trades. Is there a difference?
I believe that it is the difference in which the two accounts are traded.
Although in many respects this is one of the wonderful things about the Forex market, you can have several accounts and use different 'methodology' for each one.
I'm sure in time I will find a good balance between the two methods I currently use on the accounts. Who knows I might even find a way in which I can utilize the best of both and find my own really unique way of trading long term and profitable.

Morning 4xStar - I thought you were looking at this too. As you said it is another visualisation of the consolidation pattern and subsequent breakout but possibly with earlier entries...?
I am looking at combining either the crossovers or the untangling with a move from S or R and some candles for confirmation. Will post results.
Have a great day!

Well as i see it, if you want to long you going to have to wait for NY open, till then it might very well be pushd down to a 'cheaper' area to long, tht would increas short profits, so y not hold, or it might be pushd up for shorts on NY tht would stop me out, but only to position for short again, so y not keep my short??

Possibly not appropriate in this thread, but I feel that there is some resemblance to some of what goes on here anyways............Sorry if some find this completely off topic.
An elderly man had owned a large farm for several years. He had a large pond in the back, fixed it up nice, had some picnic tables, horseshoe pits and some apple and peach trees. The pond was properly shaped and fixed up for swimming.
One evening the old farmer decided to go down to his pond as he hadn't been there for a while and look it over.
He grabbed a five gallon bucket to bring back some fruit. As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all quickly swam to the deep end.
One of the girls shouted to him: "We're not coming out until you leave!"
The old man frowned, then said: "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked, or make you get out of the pond naked either." Holding the bucket up, he explained: "I'm only here to feed the alligator...."

...from your picture we can not say its looong? cmon?!?
my comment....we agree that GDP results are not good for cable gaining...
it trades inside this corridor from middle of the month...and the momentom is down for now...
all the market is waiting for US GDP: and its gonna be bad...maybe a bounce up because the result will be better than consensus but still...later on, the market will eat the positive and confirm negative trend...
next level down is 1.5389
sorry for bad resolution and 77 levels
