1.3418 will need to hold for continued move up (short term). I'm with HDA on the longer of the long outlook.

Got it :-)

Understand completely. For me... I put a lot of weight into the daily candles, so as soon as that lower high/lower low was made yesterday, it was time to start closing out the longs and adding shorts.

I got head faked, what can I say :-)

Where are your fib lines drawn from?
Venice: I have two downward AB swings on the daily the larger ab swing is from 1.37863 down to 1.29694 and the secong Ab swing is at 1.34982 down to 1.28742.

Now the smaller AB swing which is the second and most recent AB swing has pulled back to more than a .86 and I could have gone short already at an .86 but on the larger AB swing we are almost at the .618 pull back so I am trading the larger AB swing instead - my reason also for trading the larger AB swing is that the Options Expiry keeps telling me Up Up Up but not after Wednesday - The calender so far is Down Down Down after Wednesday.

But again I just have to wait and see - hence the patience and safeguarding my profits at the sametime until the Perfect setup comes along.

A trader does not have to trade everyday, but we tell ourselves we need to and it all depends on your personality. Im not a scalper - so I dont have to trade everyday and nothing is wrong with scalping it pays to scalp, Im just not wired that way.

Hello HDA
Youre right about not having to trade every day. Tomorrow may be treacherous trading. Tons of data and earnings reports due out. Could be mixed and choppy.

I am also a bit of a slower trader here in forex as well... daily and 4h charts for me only...

Equities is where I hammer the 5m and 1m when I get days off of work.

As long as 3435 holds, 3466 might be in the cards. If not....bear path 3419 --> 3406 --> 3395 --> 3386 --> 3367

So

My positions are underwater and I didn't expect it to go higher now.
I'm hoping that 3407 proves it's strength by being the top tonight.
I would have opened another position there but I thought it best to be safe.
I only ask these questions to help you focus.

(1) Why did you go short before the Japan open.

(2)How many positions did you put on at 1.3375

(3) Why did you put on a second position or did you before you Stop got hit.

(4) How do you know it won't test 1.3450.

(5) Do you see the trend over the next 12 hours long or short.

(6) I think you get my drift. I am trying to point some things out to you only.

(7) Did you see where Gold is going.

(8) Did you notice Oil at $92.39

Your thoughts on this would be appreciated.

The tone is set for Asia now and we wait until 2:00 AM EST to see Europe's moves.

In Middle of IMPORTANT China/USA meetings. Be careful for next few days.

I would prefer to short but not until I see what happens at 1.3500 and developments on Wednesday and Jobless Claims on Thursday.
