Rememberd Magix 24/200 cross on 1 min a bit too late. Will remember next time.
MA is a lagging indicator.. by the time it makes a decisive cross price already had moved too far.. have fun trying though..

Traders use MA crosses to decide where to exit, but not for entry..

Heya Purple....

Best of the season to you and yours my friend.

We all see different things in the charts, and though some view moving averages as lagging indicators for dictation of trends especially on the MA crosses, if you know what you are looking for and how to play them, they can not only help lead the way, but help with targets on trades.

Meh, we all need a crutch or two in this market.

Enjoy the day brother!

hey magix.. how's the magic .. all good i hope?

re the ma convo...
they appear to be popular and many use CCI and RSI ocillators for confirmation....and ma's for entry or exit .. but to be honest,personally i find claryfying crosses and oscillator moves a little hard to determine at times...so refrain... i understand some are very powerfull.. maybe i'tll click one day

update... out @ 15561

Recovery found supply athe great confluence of previous 1hr/4hr swing hi zone, previous 4hr/daily swing lo zone, descending 1hr trend line and 23.6% 6183-5483 4hr swing....the sell-off from there has breeched the ascending 1hr trend line that had been established during the upmove recovery of yesterday's 5483 lo. Price has arrived at 61.8% of that yesterday lo - today's current hi/pullback hi move 5483-5647, confluence with the previous 1hr swing hi/lo zone..

Great bearish divergence plays on the lower t/f's athe current daily hi and that potential resistance/sbr confluence.

my guess is we're heading for a slight retrace before going any farther down

By William L. Watts LONDON (MarketWatch) -- The United States is prepared to support an extension of the European Financial Stability Facility, the euro-zone rescue fund put in place by the European Union following the Greek bailout, through an extra commitment of funding from the International Monetary Fund, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing an unnamed U.S. official. The report was credited with boosting the euro and lifting U.S. stocks to new daily highs. The official said a decision is up to the European officials, but that the United States would support using the IMF in current circumstances, the report said.

As much as I can appreciate what you are saying, without having an insight for what I am actually looking at or looking for, the relevance of your reply is completely lost.

I would think that if you had a look at the EJ chart and a 200 pip upside marker you'd have a better understanding of what I see.

During NY...On a trade like this, I am looking for a 200 pip score, in a traded range(ATR). In that area, I will take a counter trend trade and will hold until the 2 lines cross back.

This is a counter play strategy...if London Closes 100 on Cable in this time, again, same deal, if during London/NY we have blown 150 outa the water, on a 200, I will heavy counter.

People that limit themselves to any single methodology in trading limit their ability to trade a lot of the playable ranges. Those that think that Moving averages are Laggy, haven't a clue on what to do with them, and end up just talking out of their asses.

We all see what we want to see in a chart...if you choose to continue to use them or not use them, please don't try and limit others by your own specific narrowed perspective.

Look at the chart posted, and compare to the original...I had 200 written for a reason, EJ came up short by 3 pips...from there, look at the decline and counter range traded...
