how can you possibly position trade e/u? it retraces fakin every move...

really wouldn't be surprised to see it make a new daily high and then a new daily low from here and before ny closes..

edit- not saying it will, just that it wouldn't surprise me...

been long mostly since late london am, was gunning for around 321x but wasn't to be so got stopped with only a fraction of the profit i could have taken if i'd closed earlier at 317x... hey ho...

bad employment data was expected so on the whole positive us data, so far supporting dollar bullishness... edit- ignore the last sentence, just read we're down on risk off from negative data...

so apparently risk flows have now re coupled...

Shit mate but hey a woulda coulda shoulda is irrelevant....you make a winner and that's what it counts, isn't it? ....

Well NY is still to open and as long as H4 holds bulls (is hanging on fragile ground now) your target is still have a chance as the 1.319x area hasn't been tested yet. That's the reason I am still neutral short term and not bearish.

Let see what NY brings to the table...

Very frustrating part of swinging Archie. It's not uncommon for me to watch price go positive and negative to my entries multiple times before finally telling me if I am right or wrong. The key is to try and anticipate the range bound and be ready for when it's done ranging.
