Yup.. i took nice 12 pips gain when it fell to 0.8381 before climbing the current high but later on GBP/USD ruined my day today. I just bought G/U and it fell like hell, seems it was waiting for me to buy it......

Yeah but it keeps shooting up.
U want to tell me to quit as soon as possible?

I'm currently @ +309 pips
I keep looking at the post-it on my monitor that says "Don't get greedy"

- I want to warn you from your first post (that you short E/G) but I found it meaningless because weaker PMI for France and Germany that a US custodial bank bought that pair yesterday by half yard (500 million) and it went above 0.8400 but it can't hold gains above that level and a chunk of money like that closed all short positions and it will stay in market for a few days so shorting it wasn't a good idea. But what makes it goes down for allittle while is Germany weaker than expected PMI so now you are become confident in your trade, but there are GBP MPC metting minutes (check FF economic calendar) and they want to ease the pound (make it weaker) so cable plunge and E/G fly to the moon.

- So always check your calender calender before you take any trade.

Short would be my choice off this range.
*So I was wrong again. I always get these wrong! Ask Chonchy and Condor. And they still listen to me. So the bear flag which I have been rattling on about since January has failed and like any failed chart pattern has exploded in the wrong direction, i.e. up. Next resistance is a biggy at .8500, or to be more precise I am seeing three distinct levels: .8480 .8495 and .8520

Good trading to you.

I was waiting for it to touch .8500 and now I'm waiting to see what London does with it. But now, it's time for a nice cup of tea.
