Very nice entry and good target for your TP mate.

With you on the long on EJ Cap. .70 entry, SL already at +BE. Above 121.8x we should get some momentum going. Fingers Crossed!

Edit: Scratch that, took me out for +1. lol

Yeah she took me out at BE as well. I wasn't going to settle for 15 pips the way this baby has been moving lately. Doesn't know what she wants to do.

No mate, not a whole lot to go off other than the fib and trading off the previous pin. The engulfing was too large a stop for my tastes to looking for some kind of retest entry if possible....

Closed back in the range so all a bit uncertain, crap price action today.

Agreed. Not much to go on at all, random pops and drops. Reversed on EJ from that pin and just took 40 pips! WOOO!!!

My thoughts exactly! She stopped right at the 4 hour 50sma where I closed. I was wondering how we are taking all the same trades, and then I looked out my window and just saw this..

I don't want to pull the curtains up too high or you might see a part of me that will make you feel inadequate!
