Stopped out of my euro shorts at BE thanks to this move.

However, my GBP/AUD short is looking great now.
Yeah, mine too. But somebody on here (very knowledgeable, I suppose) said, that important levels always get tested twice. Let´s hope he´s right.

Not when fundamentals are in play.

I agree with you in normal situations a case can be made for both.

In my case, I would not even think about a Long at any cost in EU at the moment. Exit shorts yes, I consider at certain levels, otherwise its a simple case of sell the rallies at the moment.

but that's you "thinking" not you making a case to go long here is a very simple one....

clean five wave trend down, reached both primary and secondary target zones - very rare to clear both zones and carry on down without some retrace first.
stochastic also crossing over etc.....

just saying that a case can always be made....

stochastic crossed on the 12th but the rally was not impressive. Short covering or selling rallies outweighs the risk of pure long plays IMO.

Yes I agree with you a case can always be made. Largely depends on TF of the trader and perception.

The 5 waves might be over on a TF but just beginning on the other. Always ends up on perception and TF.

Every indicator lags so not much of a fan for entries based on them, except TL's for entry and exit, not the strategy I use just a general observation. Indicators are more for overview than entries IMO.

Really well summed up.

Its a news/fundamental play at the moment, even the highest risk-takers don't want to long on something which has the highest chance of getting a fundamental change/overhaul(Grexit, EFSF negative outlook, Germany negative outlook) etc.
If I were looking for risk I would look to something which doesn't have such scenarios in the pipeline.

cool just making sure your eyes are open so many are not as you can see by the comments on here.

I never trade indicators, but I use the stochastic as a quick visual to where price is compared with the last X periods - it's only true purpose.

Really? That's awful.

I remember an incident some time ago in this thread when one poster didn't like another poster so they telephoned their broker and quoted the ticket number of the person that they didn't like and the broker revealed that it was a demo account and then that person told the whole thread that so-and-so was trading a demo account! I was surprised that the broker had revealed that information to an anonymous caller though. Can't trust anyone in this game.
Nothing worth having is easy.

Seriously? That's one client who is never going to opena live account with them.

On other side of this, I don't know whether it is possible or not if the poster had posted personal info(a lot of it) on the boards and the other guy had enough time on their hands to research and call its possible in theory to steal identity and get the info regarding live or demo. Just an opinion.

IMO no one in their right mind should link a live account to trade explorer.

If you want to show-off(can't imagine why) then post the statement of live account and delete it after a bit. Just seems more secure.

Making money is a secretive business, in every field. If I can see enough entries, exits et al of a trader I can over a period of time copy their trading system or atleast guess to the closest possible settings being run.
