I'm just keeping an open mind, Trotty. Bull or bear, we can still make pips. Yesterday may have just been a retracement before further North, but I see a few reasons for a reversal too. Took a few pips on that cable 1hr 62 bounce, but closed too soon (doh!) as we'd broken under support

Oh always mate, always! I never let a bias overule what I see on the day. It could take another 3 or 4 days before we get the next push north but the charts suggest one will happen at some point. Have a great trading day

I will try and post when I can but I am working for a different contract at the minute which gives me a little less time than earlier in the month

Weekly chart of Aussie- strong support level at 1.04 it's bounced off this from both sides several time before. Definately worth watching

Good charts lazyboy and I noticed that exact same setup on EU, only a little too late to take it. It a very reliable setup, if there is a false breakout of a level and a large retrace from it before the retest, that previous level will very often be well respected again. Very nice work

EU about to explode, actually GBP and AUD also. Everyone is near major HTF MA's....

I hope we start trending.....

Still looking long on that EURUSD until at least I see a price close below the 100 HR MA.

Brother got his internet stick today, got a small line heading north from 1.3307, put that in after the close of the 1600 candle while I was on lunch.

HOLLA
