It was scalping and closed for 10 pips.
Now bearish div might be in play on M15.
Daily open (blue line) retested as resistance in white shape.

G/M,

Cable's pullback recovery from yesterday's low 5919, around 61.8% 5865-6017 (friday lo-hi) twice challenged that previous 1hr/4hr swing hi zone created by that fractal swing hi at 6017...1st test rof it epelled by supply to 5964 and 2nd test again meeting supply and price turned lower.

Uk Gdp data etc later (0930am gmt) Any print below the 0.5% expected could well see knee-jerk £ weakness ?

Hi lechidi - posted same chart on sunday night - channel in play - perhaps yesterdays NY action was a clearing of weak shorts - thats what I've been thinking...Although I wouldn't be surprised at another go at the channel top and piercing the line , for the same reasons

Price makes a downside break of recent 4hr flag, breaks 1hr ascendinbg trend line to that downside-currently around Daily S1 pivot leading down to a previous 1hr/4hr swing lo zone around Monday's Lo.

I'm just wondering... when you say '0.6vol', does it imply that you open a few positions at once, or is ur platform able to break your lots into pieces after you opened? however unlikely it sounds.... haha.

I'm holding quite a lot from up there.... as I said, every time it goes around 1.6000, red button becomes sexy

when you open a trade with a specific lot size like..say...1 lot. you can select 0.6 when you want to hit ''close'' and it closes that portion of your trade and leaves 0.4 running. cheers

...price dips just below yesterday's lo to the 200sma on 1hr....below here the unbreeched fibs of the moves up from thurs and fri lows 5835 and 5865 respectively to that 6017 Hi...as well as the previous 1hr/4hr swing lo zones leading down to those lows (previous support)

Trend line broken at London open 15960 and 15880 looks like pretty decent support - GDP will decide which one goes

Hi CMG,

Are u using MT4 platform as well?

I opened only 1 position with say 1 lot vol.
When I wanted to close partially, by right click the trade on Terminal window, firstly I changed the volume to 0.7, 0.6 or any number below the volume it was originally opened. Then hit the 'Close button.

Regards,

Is the market pricing in a bad 4th Qtr Gdp due in 25mins or so, or is it just a move down to buy at a discount on the data ?

Time will tell but a reading below the forecast +0.5% could well limit the Boe MPC's scope for an early rate rise, so £ weakness on the knee-jerk could well result ?
