Spot FX Day Trader's Thread

a bit scary !

I've drawn an upper trendline+horizontal resistance comes in around 138 & fundamentally this Irish debt stuff and the other euro-zone worries are looming large. Just need some dollar strength and the trend could head south big time (I'm always looking for reversals, human nature I believe!)

looking to go long cable if it pulls back to the 10ema on the daily and then ride it up to 160

If he thinks Metallica is scary he wouldn't like Slayer..

Agreed, I still can't work out what's scary about Metallica!? Just had long cable triggered at 15730 stop 15678, t/p 15990

Ok.. I'm in long Cable at 1.57 .. no stop just yet

Just cracked open my first one, Count

I made it to 5:30 before I started drinking.. so proud.

Got stopped out on earlier cable, back in 15705 stop -62, t/p 15990. Hitting the hay as early start but playing fire & forget with this trade, back tomorrow afternoon to see how it's cooking!

I'm jealous mate, is it a cold Miller? Nothing beats a cold beer after a warm day which I guess you still get in Texas this time of year. Early start = no beer for me, off the weekend thank feck

You're basically in the same cable trade I'm in.. I'm looking at this dip as mere profit taking and a chance to get in on the trend.

Yes, Miller.. Yes, cold.. it's 33 celsius currently.

Man that sounds good, cold miller with condensation on the outside of the can/glass and 33c, nice! Have you seen Ice cold in Alex? Second WW film with famous beer downing after long desert journey plus fit blonde, excellent combination that would make any man thirsty!



I'm trying to jump on the cable trend myself mate, I really think it's going to test 160 again and probably higher

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!

Good one!

Hey, you guys don't have dumb-bells in the UK? I mean, I'm no Arnold, but that guy looks like he just escaped from Bergen-Belsen! You have to at least attempt to put a bit of fat and/or muscle on your bones, ahem, limeys..

I know. I know.. go ahead and boo me..

Anyway, that video is purely classic.. I watched and watched and then the pure beauty got me.. awesome.. so classic. nice one..

I'm up nicely and holding..

banking 121 on Cable!

BOOM!

nice way to end the week.

Nice one mate, I'm still in the trade & might hang onto it into next week. Good way to end the week for sure

I think your passengers would appreciate it if you would fly the plane rather than post

Multi-tasking is the way forward. If we can get wifi on board like Lufty and some of the Middle Eastern carriers we could trade fx from the flightdeck at times of low workload. Now there's a thought!

The euro is looking unstoppable right now but I'm looking for a pullback around 13820 toward the daily 10ema to get long next week. The daily 10ema is my new friend & I'll be telling anyone who cares about what it's doing...

that doesn't make sense.. did you mean 1.362 to get long?

Certainly did (13620), must have had a Guinness too many & confused myself!?

I'm waiting patiently to get in long euro if it comes down a little further over next while. Any trades Pipp?
