I'll let you do the proof. It dawned on me when I read Fudomyo's post. Don't worry, I won't waste any time on you.
Mate, the 1100 thing is quite hard to believe. My outlook is, I don't have the energy to argue silly stuff. People here either are smart enough to know what's probable or not, and if they aren't, then so be it.

I remember when WB and I had a run in with this holy grail guy who (supposedly) drew down the flash crash on multiple pairs for 1000 pips each...

Guess what? People were bending over backwards to believe his 100% win ratio was true because he was telling them exactly what they wanted to hear.

So it doesn't matter what anyone says, people who put hope before logic are not going to listen.

Back to trading.

Anything is possible, but a couple of things to keep in mind. History doesn't always repeat itself. The Asian debt crisis had a lot to do with the spike up to 1.700 Kumo flat top in 97. (and if Yen goes to 120 by November, then the ripple effect could be far more devastating than it was 10 years ago)

I have 1.73 area as an outside target as well, besides the Kumo top sitting there. Here's an older GU technical chart.

A lot can happen between now and then. Step by step.

Thanks for the headsup,I had no clue about that.

I try to keep it simple and only trade what I see and not using much the fundies anymore as I don't trust them.

One EZ guy farts at the end of the world in a summit and the price goes nuts only to resume it's technicall direction moments later.

Or as it happened with Moody's when one guy said it will downgrade UK and half an hour later after the 100 pips tank another Moody's agent came on stage and said it was not the official point of view and price went back again.

So,if I see a formation I take it.

About the history I always kept in mind that it is cyclic as this is the main reason we use S and R.I will stick to it still as experience shows me that 99% of this kind of countertrend trades are touching the levels I mentioned.

No matter the TFS.If it works on M5 it works on Weekly as well.

On the charts I posted on the 27th (If I recall) all of the trades touched the designated areas.

I base my trades on this only and no other complicated things.

but as you say step by step.

on the same date bbmac asked me why I see a good R @ 1.6040 area and I gave some charts and detaild explanation as 1.6027-1.6046 is a good Short area.

now I will load long again @ 1.5950-1.5955 area when we go there and target 1.6160 as 61.8% on weekly

It does not mean I will hold it if price does nasty tricks as I will close partially on the way up and trail the SL with the KS line or smaller TFS clouds.

have a nice weekend and thanks for the chart

Technically, GBPUSD has been going in an uptrend although earlier it breached 1.6 levels but still it remains within the channel bouncing from the resistance level of the channel.

As long as it goes down first for me to take my pips. Once I am fed with my pips, it can bounce all it wants to.

Funny as feck tho you gotta admit bro
man, that one still cracks me up.

anyway for today, the 6120 TL seems like a long shot. I've got my eye on the minor descending Daily TL at MR1 or the wedge top at WR3. Daily ATR is smack between them.

so quiet for a friday and end of month. Was expecting a big run or sell off today. Hopefully, run up, but I think exhausted.

If you have a short position and if it bounces from the resistance for a couple of pips then it would be great as it is not broken for the upside yet.

Don't worry, it will down forst before continuing bullish trend....but don't take pips green too much, becaue i worry it bounce to the track as soon as it touch one of nearest fibo.....i don't know maybe 38.2, 50 or 61.8....just beware ....

here are some old posts where I was showing same stuff I show now and same type of calculation and where I say about the GU drop 600 pips first then another 600.
I also saw the drop in EU as well from 1.50-1.51 for 1000 pips....so there was not only one trader seeing that.If I look hard enough in those posts I might even find the charts

Yes, I agree its a quite a bit slow for the cable...It has lost its steam after breaking 1.6 and then bouncing back...Not much of a movement there just less than 70 pips...Since it is below 1.6000 psychological levels... the movement is expected towards a downside testing the intra day support approx at 1.5970

hello,
no today i closed some position then got some scalps in jpy crosspairs
not good to think about a direction in the last day of W/M/Q....
just my idea!
for what i see eerything is bouncing up-down like crazy and when you think price got a direction, the immediate second later that price will reverse.
indeed i'm leaving charts, i see numbers everywhere.
also my cat is a number ehehhehe
