I think so as well. This is just a final major retracement before downfall. How high shall it go? Thats what I would like to know. I am currently waiting for a minor bearish retracement confirming bearish downtrentrend.

just saw a post that brought to my attention that we stopped at monthly pivot. must admit i wasn't aware

wedge is getting tooooooo tight. buttons about to start poppin?

my number is 1.3920. above that some. that's where i'll be looking to short. maybe i will be loosing an opportunity (still haven't place a single trade today...) but rather loose an opp than $$

green pips, K

even after a few thousand hours of trading (about 3 or 4 years of up to 16h a day).

my wife repeatedly tells me: "remember dear, your not gonna get rich TODAY!" that's probably the best thing she tells me right after "i love it when F$%& in the A#$!" LOLOLOL

My real advice is "never ever give. u WILL get there. it just takes longer than you thought"

but who am i to give advice...

Yep, that pretty much sums today up for me as well.
Managed to have green pips on several morning trades.. Just to see my sell orders later that day get complete f*cked by huge upbars(on multiple pairs-critical levels) that immediately hitted my SL's. Which caused me to go red within a sec for today.

Now that I look back at it it could all be avoided by simply removing the orders before these channels got broken way too close at these resistance levels I had my orders on.. On the other side that lost amount is actually worth it considering the lesson I have learned from it.. That's another way to look at it I suppose

but how desperating can it be to do a mistake, that you know already after a gazzilion bad trades that is a mistake, and still do it!?

realllllly hate that feeling!

just yesterday i was around 60 pips green on the move down. i saw a clear signal up, i saw the huge stopping vol on the 5m candles down but still (greed) i found reasons to justify leaving the trade open while i slept. guess what i woke up to?

green pips, R

failed break of the bottom of the wedge. don't have entries on the indis but am taking it anyway. my sl it below 3810 and tp 3930 (might close it lower if it shivers around 20).

Bought under the resistance and sold above the support...not a good move mate.
But in my opinion, you have more chance of seeing a higher move if you look at an intraday chart....swing is upside oriented..
Now either close everything and enjoy the week end....or close the one in profit, let the other one running until it's in profit....but its a tough decision, that's why i don't hedge anymore but use stop loss instead

I went long as shown below(yes, opened manually).. With a bigger lot then usual. I think we might break this smallish descending channel from somewhere around this support, to retest previous highs~. Current SL covers multiple support/´okay´ R:R.

If this one succeeds I'll at least be BE for the weekend

don't like the way the 5m is drawing after the failed break: wicks on top and going up too slowly? maybe this sound stupid but looks like a microflag LOL

i would take a look at the 1m but i have a promise to my self not to look at that tf

Here is the view, that we are very very close to a major shorting zone:

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...72#post5042372

3600-3800 zone was what I had in mind as far as a shift downward was going to happen.

The 3600 zone got broken towards 3800, but signs of slow down are being observed around 3800-3900, these signs are start of a downward shift on the weekly time frame.

confirmed break above 1.3950 will target long to 1.4095 and given further push then next stop 1.4225 area but first it may retrace towards 1.3790

if breaks to the downside to 1.3700 then most likely to revisit 1.3520-1.3550 area

ps: 10+ wife
what i see here is the market dripping back to 379 or 3810 bfore the end of today or monday before shorting back to 4000and etc, plz note this is not concret but there some certainty. the speed in which the market got to 3800 was so high so i look forward to it dripping back.i have a sell at 3769 but with a 0.02 lot. i do know it will come back down. G20 will let us kno.

Ok so its three countertrend deals for 40 pips - 120 pips loss while trying to guess the top. And still no lesson learned. Look at Michos last posted picture and gaze at it for some time untill it stucks deeply in your subconsius. It is faster than reading psychological books.

T.

Edit: Well that picture is actually not as precise as I thought. Selling before top and buying before bottom is missing. Better read those books.

yeah that was 120 pips in total but i was planning to trade 0.1 lot sell at 1.3680 with 40 pips stop, instead of that i used 0.025 at 3670, 0.025 at 3680 and 0.025 at 3690 therefore in terms of money with my initial plan i could say it was 30 pips guess at top.. and that's why i will only sell 0.025 at this time because i realize guess top is more risky than follow the trend but i looked at weekly and monthly chart it still shows bearish.
