I'm long again 20lots @ 1.6140 SL-1.6039 TP-Open.

If GBPUSD falls and comes below 1.6080 I will be ready to load another 20lots long.
How many $ will be 1 pip profit with such lot size?

The queen refused to marry Obama, so the USD is getting weaker now and GBP is gaining strength. Expect 6220 soon.

Good day to you,

The move up was on the cards all day. I just wanted a better price to buy at - so missed. All good. did make my pips on the EJ dip a bit earlier.. I believe we will end the day around 1.6200 ( or at east trade that level today) - where I will scalp short for 10 or 20.

wish you all the best

best place to buy was the friday high, optimal considering the pa today.

Correct. But who would have known.... I did expect a move lower first. Did not come as deep as I hoped for - I guess the positive thing that can be taken from this, is that I had the direction right... (like many others).

Onto the next opportunity

Trade well

Good day to you,

Protect some profit. I would exit @ 1.6190 to 1.6200 - should we go higher, as I would expect a pullback from that level. BUT - those are just my humble opinions. You need to decide. What was your personal exit rule when you entered? Apply that.

All the best

SL - 50 pip
TP - pip.

Why my indicator give me the signal to another direction - I close the trade immediately.

Trade open until the end of New York session.

Good day to you,

So first - missed the long this morning and now missed the short too, as I was waiting for 1.6200 to scalp short. Some days it just does not go your way...

Such is life.

Looking at the 1hr, I will long just under 1.6100 ( 1.6090 to 1.6095) for a scalp. There are indication of a possible turn over the next few days - but time will tell and this can change at any time.

All the best

i dont know.... but if u looking at H1 ... this is what I see for today... but still not safe for me to follow that bearish trend yet...coz H4 already performing bullish trend.. so I'll wait for H4 to perform bearish first... and I hope Daily still performing bearish on that time...

wow. this place has become a ghost town since I was a regular. A year ago this place was packed almost if not more than the fibre thread at any given time during the day.

anyways, waiting to see if she crosses the 200ma and confirms the up move on the 5m tf, or bounces off it and continues back down. Since it is after the london close, who knows.
tuff getting back in the habit of waking up at 4:30 in the morning to trade after my break. Just wish I'd traded during these last few weeks. Seems anyone couldve made some pips.
