Cable again made a brief visit outside the NFP low just to collect stops.Flows in eur/gbp being reported as responsible for cable strength. Waiting for another long entry around 1.5580 with 20 pip top for 1.57 area.Or will jump on a move above 1.5650 with a 20 pip stop ( but that would be my least prefered option). Monday often forms the high/low for the week but need to keep an eye on equities as those guys are desperate to engineer the Santa rally, which would mean a weaker dollar.

I have that exact same trade on, same TP but I got in at around 10 pips earlier. A good set up that I think will travel further.

I agree, but I think the Santa Rally will be about as genuine as Santa himself.

...close here at 5545.
that was a nice exit. (price bounced 110 pips)

last week it reversed 400 pips off my last exit.

5766, close enough to end the year on a good note.

good day,

Well done.

I bet the dinner now tastes a lot better. Knowing you took your money off the table. It takes a lot of confidence to enter in any direction on a sharp rally or sharp decline.

I guess it's about knowing the difference between a falling knife and a stop hunt - or then a rocket run and a stop hunt...once mastered ( or comfortable with) - one tends to find lucrative opportunities.

all the best

Regards

work life balance always pays off.

to be honest, I've become a bit of a chart borg on my exits, but my entries still need polish. with my current method, I can see price, but wait on technical confirmation to go, so typically miss the first 30% of a move. I'm not sure if it's a trust or confidence issue, but I tend to play things on the safe side.

I guess it's a never ending journey of obstacles to overcome.

David Cameron admitted on Friday morning that there had been tensions between the 'euro-ins' and 'euro-outs' during the ten hour marathon meeting and he insisted that Britain would "never join the euro".

a man with a vision
U.K. PM David Cameron is set to address the House of Commons and take questions regarding his withdrawal from the new EU treaty deal last week.

Pretty hard to get bullish on cable with the euro finding no bottom. I stand aside from cable.
