Quoting Ian
Medici and Islander, just want to thank you both for lots of instructive charts this week, adding to the wealth of material available to study on this thread. Good weekend to everybody.

GM and thanks - for my part, posting is about showing others what I am seeing in the expectation that it may help us all to make more pips

Into FO, the Fridays close/ 3525 SS / DP confluence held as resistance and a LH, ~mid FH price dropped quickly to the MS 1 level for a nice start to the week.....

The break of the MS 1 level IMO suggests a continuation to the confluence around S1 - Fridays Low and 3450 SS......TWT

Morning all (or evening for me)
Missed that initial run Islander and the doc got but got the move from 3480ish and covered at 3450.. maybe a little early but I would have been anxious watching it chop, so happy to cover there.

Out to see a friends gig now, hope everyone has a positive day

Morning Men,
Seems a bit scrappy this morning, only three RB bars in the last two hours under 1min. Currently in a buy from the RB hammer at 3484 just under daily pivot . +16 as I write . Given the conditions I'm happy with that and going to close.

Good week so far - 4/4.

Morning nhen, Allways a little uncomfortable 7-8am gmt. quite often a slow continuation hour prior to LO. I have to keep asking myself " Am I happy with what I make if I close it now?"...... and of course deal with the little blighter below!!!!......

GM - the French PMI data at LO spiked € down just under its earlier lows to hit the MS 2 level in a grave-yard doji, so I took a fast buy with a tight stop, banked a few at the S1 level and bought again on the pull back into a HL off the **50 level.....now I'll sit on my hands and see IF this is the start of a retrace of yesterday's action.....TWT

Morning nice work. Got a few short off 34750 and 34627, got stopped at 3450ish going short because my brokers spread widened at LO and caught me. Quite annoying, would have hit my PT.

Yet more EZ data due in 20 mins, so we may get another spike down aka buying opportunity .....so I'm trailing a tightish stop on my longs to keep locking in profits

GM - a thin market is expected for today, so will this produce some large swings?......TWT

I'm long off the 3300 level after that little pop down after LO, trailing a tight stop in case there is another pop under the 00.....someone might like to get it down there again.....

The 1.3300 bid was duly filled but the other at 1.3295 is so far holding with latest intel suggesting several 100′s still there after just touching the level.....

Totally agree that it's a bottom picking day, and now that the sellers have had a go, perhaps it's time for some profit taking!?

I bought Aussie at 9671, and it has now broken up above yesterday's low. A double bottom on the H4, so I think I'll sit on this for a while...
