Right so when the price started falling , you went back in time 15mins and placed a short and also a post on the forums.

It was 50/50 gamble to go long or short before the conference. Your gamble paid off. By now claiming that "I could see it in the H4 and H1", you are being disingenuous.
Try to sell the resistance and spot the confluence mouse...It was 70 30 trade based on PA

H4 is in correction mode....

I've seen Tarantula's trades last year when I was researching FX on this forum. He's good. There's no need for him to prove anything.

From where I'm sat, he made the call WITHOUT prediction as to why. But he did specify a target. His chart is clear to me why. End of Story.
A pip is only worth it if you know how much you risked to earn it

regardless of if he predicted it or it was a good guess, stop being jealous & stop being a troll!

The 100 pip fall in the euro was due to the comments of the ECB president. If he was claiming that he had shorts based on fundamentals or economic policy research then I would have believe him.

But for him to claim that his technicals and/or PA could predict a 100 pip fall on the eve of a major news item then I call bullshit.
Relax mate. You got a point on the volatility part but hey he called, risked, traded and won so there is nothing you or anybody can say about that.

If you have doubts about his analysis or the sustainability of taking a rejection bar in H1 or why that one and not another one you can raise a question in the thread or via PM in a more constructive way. Meanwhile he has the upper hand in the argument.

Careful, 3180 has not given up yet. With 10 pips at a time you may luck out here, just keep the stops tight.

Well ... today the market gave us three major moves ... why not ... not bad as well ... I love playing pingpong like Boris Becker here ...

I played two and a half of that in EU ... enough for me now ...

And I played one and a half of it in GU ... first up then down ...

So what ... more than content with the mkt ... and many more in other pairs as well ...

UPDATE as at daily close. Stronger than expected close, opens to possibility for target 2 to be reached faster than expected, perhaps even at the week's end.
Oui, monsieur, we are proceeding as planned:

Errrr no he didnt. We were all watching. I remember he posted about 15-20 min before announcement and even Cloggie said, "Why aren't you waiting?"

Needless to say, history shows the result. And I watched the price, as I'm sure everyone did here, and we saw the posts come in as it hit his target.

Again... end of story. Why is this even an issue?

You are seriously going to keep claiming that the H4 (lol fucking 4 hour chart no less) showed you that the European central bank was not going to announce a formal bond purchase plan?


Here is a pro-tip for you: Major fundamental policy news > technicals
We're all stories in the end. Just try to make it a good one.

yep thus the s/l also 10pips. r/r of 1:1. but if go up 20pips then 2:1, 30pips then become 3:1

might move s/l to Be later..
Good day, I'm okay. Bad day, I'm okay. What's the difference?

Here is your first 10, keep the stops tight, 3200 needs to go next for the high to be in reach. We had a 140 pip run, she is going to run out of steam somewhere and 3180 is a perfect place for it.

Why not give it 4 minutes to see what Tricky-T has to say? My 3150 and PTJ's 3152 are still key here.

The trigger went, you took a valid trade, I waited till the news conference though to get confirmatin so missed out on the first little bit of the run. I like to play it safe though. For me, the fundamentals always trump the technicals, but that is my style. If the fundamentals disagree with the technicals then the technicals rule. Today was great as the fundamentals pushed the technicals over the edge and we could refer back to yesterday's support zones as targets for profit taking and reversals.
