You right, there's sellers sitting around 1.0400 - 1.0450.

But if she breaks that.......we sure will be going higher...

Looking good so far, Turtle. I put a long on Euro before breakfast, after a bullish close above the 50ema- nice to see it's popped up. Covered half +23, . Breaking out as I type. Taking another quarter off here, +38 leaving the rest to run with stop at BE +10 now

Nice 131...

I got beat up twice this week going long on EU. My mistake was using the hourly charts to trade off of. Oh well, lesson learned, blame the market..

Close AUDUSD long trade this morning @ 1.0400. I was looking for price to be heading above my weekly resistance @1.0450(purple line) when I woke up this morning.

Didn't like what I saw and went short @ 1.0399, with original s/l @ 1.0435.

S/l moved to BE to cover over the weekend.

TIME FOR HAPPY HOURS TO BEGIN......

Great short, Turtle, well done on reversing!

Sorry I've not been around- it's the school holidays- I'vegot my hands full for 6 weeks now! Here's what I'm looking at on the daily of Aussie- we're near the bottom of the channel- if that breaks, then you're in the money, but I'll be looking for PA to buy soon

I'm watching closely also, will bail with a close above my 200 day MA, but your right if she breaks that 100 day MA and the bottom of last week's candle, 1.0150 would come up pretty quick...

Took a long before breakfast on the Aussie after we had a strong rejection during the Asian session. Got in on a retrace of the 4 hr BUOB. Taking half off +36 pips, and SL to BE. 15 min entry and 1st TP below

I don't know about everyone else but I got my ass handed to me trying to short the top of today's surge.

Anyway I'm short for the rest of the week and see what it brings.

Hello Ben,
I think you mean you weren't shorting the top then! Yesterday was a bit of a reversal from a fakey- particularly clear on the US500 chart (after the fact of course..), see we have a double top then three bearish bars that break an established trendline- at this point pretty much everyone is short, and then the reversal bar takes us back up with a close above the TL- so an easy one to get caught out on. I don't think you're alone!

And here's a trade I took from this morning- A long on cable after this triple tweezer which turned out to be a quadruple tweezer! I like these trades because you know there's a definite line in the sand where the trade fails- very simple. Entry and 1st TP below

I'd say the quadruple tweezers is a pretty strong signal, wouldn't you? Closing all out here on cable +155pips

lol nice man you did like my whole monthly goal in a day, the three tweezers i think are a strong signal since the market was ranging when it happened, was your bias long before taking the trade or did you just enter because of the tweezers?

Yes, I was looking for longs at the time, as we were at the bottom of the 15min range and the daily chart suggested there were buyers here (look left)

What's up 131,

Nice work on those longs! Way to keep that AU long overnight bro. Just woke up to see the huge Draghi sponsored move from a couple hours ago and had to come by to see how much you banked.

I'm still spending a bit of time in the school of hard knocks but learning every day, either about the markets or psychological lessons.

Keep up the good work.
