I can't say I really understand the sellers at 28 here. I popped in a long at 4413, but there just isn't enough to move at the moment. Sellers, or algos or whatever it is are pretty firm at the moment.
I will watch the 19 area and if we get much below that, I will most likely exit and give it a few hours. But I think 19 holds the decision.

No sellers here, not a lot of momentum or appetite to drive this North very fast either.

I covered mine earlier only because I couldn't be bothered to watch them anymore really. There is a minor at 34, one at 38-ish and then 60-ish, you may well hold on to the darn long for the next 4 hours before it goes anywhere. Gold taking a nose dive, equities still rallying, not looking good for a decent move on this pair.

Just don't go selling it just yet.

Ah, here we go! Finally. As long as we can close above 4430 we should get to 4460.

Anyways, only behind the screens to do a bit of housekeeping so won't be here long. Not trading any of this, the book is covered.

Edit: Just looked at community sentiment. 63% bias to the short side.

Feckin heck they are an average of 152 pips underwater, they are feckin worse then the eu thread. What a load of tosh. Are there really that many crap traders around? We need a good WTF do clear the decks there a bit.

Yep... it's amazing. you should have seen it the last few weeks. Several were 1000+ underwater.

And that is AVERAGE.

I try to pull those stats up a bit, but to no avail. lol

The farther we go up, the more biased to the short side it becomes.

The bullish 15m ABC remained intact and the 4hr bullish ABC remains intact.
The FE100 for the 15m sits at 4512.
The FE100 for the 4hr sits at 4631, but one step at a time...

Protective stops in 4413 long, still targeting 60.

You have the ball, market.

This thread has been good today, just about everyone is looking at exactly the same thing and waits for just about the same setups, Needpips needs to learn a bit of patience. We even have a few decent countertraders here.....


Hmmmm, will it last..... Let's try kids.
