that is why i commend anyone who trades longer time frames. what patience it takes! they get a lot of pips and i leave some behind but it sure does suite me a lot better taking 12 pips at a time.
Yep. I trade the daily a lot.

It's not easy when you have to wait 12+ hours for a setup. Pending orders are a dream lol... and even then, most of the time I am not around to monitor the PA at levels I want to buy at so I usually set around 4 hours on pending to let it do it's thing.

Hands free, baby!

I did, however, close out a 550 from the euro last night short, and let me tell you those pay days feel nice. Can take a few weeks to come to fruitation though.

according to usdx. when we move it will be a wtf move if/when eu. oil ect drop.. at least 200 eu pips 400 more then likely. a little move will be rejected. until we cross and close above the mofu.
FOMC MINUTES, should start the ball rolling later. Markets waiting to see what was said.

Retired floor trader and in a public forum you act like a child?

First off, you only took part of the range here Champ...

Second off, the last part of your statement says to me that you guessed and have no clue as to where this thing is headed....

Check the day, topside resistance and the daily ATR...

hmm, makes me a tad worried about buying euro, i'll jam this stop in any case

edit: decent bounce off the 38.2. I'll look to buy more around 35-40
Don't have an ego. Always question yourself and your ability.

Yep. It's a very hard mindset to stay with. Especially when I sleep through London.

Really, I can't wait to be able to actually trade London... I am missing out on a lot of pips daily because of it

Definitely feels like counter trend trades, that's for sure.

With the trend is always so much smoother.

Hi friends,

was not able to post today. Have read the last half hour many postings here in FF.

One remark: I think, that many believed that we would make sweet new lows today. I think, that especially at the time around the DP was taken out many here were convinced.

I was not. The break of the DP surprised me.

When one only looked at 4h or 2 or 1h chart, the move down looked like an impulse. But on smaller TF, especially 5 or 15min, it was clearly no impulse.

Compare the movements from today down with the movement from the last hour or so. See the difference?

What I say is: do not only look at higher TF's, judge the structure of the waves on smaller TF's

Target for this measured move right now is around 4360
