Resistance area mentioned (1), has now become temp support. Will it hold? Just above, we have the monthly open @ 1.5560.(2) This should be a little bugger.

The daily trend still very much down. Any sustainable move higher, will have to pass 1.5611 first.

I'm going out to the shops - my wife has me on duty to fix a couple of things around the house today. If I survive and keep all 10 fingers, I will be back a bit later.

Wish you all success

G/M

Hope all had a warm w/e !

Cable Hi so far today above Friday's pullback Hi 5544 off the Friday lo 5453...and right at the steepest 4hr descending trend line/channel top.
23.6% of 5911-5453 is @ 5560 with 61.8% 5645-5453 above @ 5571. 5625-27 is 23.6%/38.2% oif the 4hr swings 6183/5911 to same 5453 Lo.

Current 1hr screenshot below, yellow and orange fibs are the minor 1hr swings to 5453 from 5813 and 5767 (not terribly meaningful ?)grey is from Friday's 5645 Hi to same lo.

Upcoming Event Risk: Uk data @ 0930am gmt.

Been following your trading, i tend to place same trades with you but dont place same entry levels. I would love to see your entry timing as that can help better mine also.

what time frame do you use in placing entry?? would love to have your tip. All the best in your trading.

Good day to you,

Entries are taken on either 15min chart for longer term trades, and 5 min for shorter term trades ( scalps). entries are based on 4hr info, normally in confluece with daily info. But not always.

I will trade any timeframe on any selected pair - if the setup makes sense. I prefer using S/R levels or zones to initiate entry. Losses are taken in my stride and for this, I also use S/R levels . So - although not always right, losses are cut in reasonable time.

As Magix has mentioned many a time: The daily opening price is a key level and should form the basis of your daily trading. Add to this the weekly opening price and you have an incredible framework of reference to work with. Your weekly outlook should be determined by the weekly opening price. Draw a thick line over your chart. Mondays should be handled with care, as the market finds direction for the week. Above the weekly opening price - you look for longs. Below the weekly opening price, you look for shorts. Draw every daily opening price in as well, and trade these the same way. Obviously, if we trade below the weekly open and we trade above the daily open on any day during that week, you know you are counter trend trading-and vice versa. So stops should be tight. Put your pivots up and you have a sound base.

Hope this assists

Regards

Good day to you,

Here is an example of a counter trend trade on Swissy.... entered @ 0.9671

Rejection of S/R cluster(1) including the weekly open. It's Monday, so this level is not established well. Therefor, SL is kept tight (2) @ 0.9692. Attempting to trade down to the next S/R level (3) - which is the closing price as well as the low of 2 trading days ago @ 0.9640/39

You will notice it is against the daily trend - so a scalp at the most. Will it pay a couple? Who knows... but this is how I look at possible trades.

You can also tame the Dragon. scalped on 5min chart for +10. ( with a 7 pip spead). Get comfortable in your system and trade it - come hell or highwater.
