We need to build up momentum first. We moved 120 pips, took it right back the where London started, now price needs to coil for it to give you the next move. Wait for a confirmed pattern to form here and trade either the range while it is being taken out or wait for the breakout. Don't go making the noobie mistake of trying to get in after a 100+ pip runner.

Look how I traded of that 91, that one took 2 hours to materialise and turn into a 90 pip trade (390 pip scaled in). Chasing each and every pip will never pay of in the long run, find your good setups, be patient and stick to your guns.

Right now we are trying to form something from 75-02-ish, let it form, rarely do we get a "wet cat bounce of an electric fence" reversal.

Have a plan and trade the plan.

As I was typing the above, we are back at 02 again. Let it play out and you'd be surprised what finding 2-3 100 pip runners a day on eu alone will do to your bottomline...... getting 800-1,000 pips a week unscaled on eu is not a farfetched goal to strive for, you will only get there if you focus on the bigger picture.

Just got up, no coffee yet, so the world is still somewhat a blur. But it's easy to catch up on this thread!

So the Richmond numbers came way south of consensus, and the stock market rallies because they're in "bad news is good news because bad news will prod Poppa to act" mode. Both the sell side and buy side are so policy addicted that the decoupling from reality is nearly absolute.

And that trend started with this charlatan: Greenspan, who apparently poor mouths the EUR and on the basis of his always-sage opinion it spooks. At least it's printing some reasonable, albeit still somewhat low, ATR.

Darimik, looks like you've been crunching some numbers. Let's talk about them later.
