honestly..
A Million $$ question mate.. really, I would wait on next political moves from ECB and FED.. in other words.. we can see an EU debacle as well as Intervention, profit taking or some new kind of QE...

As for me.. I am going to daytrade [short trades] next period of time..

in other words..
Keeping your cards closer to your chest.. !!

@Piters:

Understood but for this week I will only be trading EUR/CAD some easy easy easy money is to be made over there without making losses. Im leaving my shorts just the same on EUR/USD all the way to 2650.

Cool.

I like stoch up when I'm scalping. I'm often in before a cross, but like it when it confirms my play.
20 ma + stoch crosses + candle. if macd agrees? golden bro.

stoch are beautiful to scalp with, until they both goes above or bellow 80/20..

or.. they are the best in a range, but not in the strong trend..
having them in my toolbox too

Why is Everyone Invisible?

Are you all hiding from the IRS?

Agreed! With all of the above, except...

When I'm looking for a bottom/top in scalping mode: If both are above below 80/20...and I take a "blind" trade...say at an S/D zone...or an anticipated Stop Run zone...if I get a promising reversal candle AND the fast stoch has crossed the slow AND crossed and closed above/below the 80/20 line...I LIKE that! I like it a LOT!

I then start looking to either add to the position on a failed retest of the high/low...OR...if my position is already big enough, I'll look to pull a partial, but really focus on trying to hold most for a little bit of a runner...maybe out to 40-50 pips kind of thing.

this is where my divergences helps a lot..
no brainier.. on failed or exhausted move.. you wait on Divergences, and then trigger with the stoch..
