USDCAD also provided a nice ID 18.4 short with a high probability of trend continuation for the day, week, month and overall mid term picture.
And it proved a good entry mate! I really like the way you pick those high prob. trades.

Good trade mate. There were good 18.4 entries on both IW and ID on AUDJPY.

Thanks bud. Indeed. I was about to close it but saw the IW the last minute and decided to leave running with a slightly bigger SL (covering the weekly LOW).

Hi guys,

Hope you are doing fine! It is really good to see the thread active, with the same great traders as before. I would also like to welcome new followers of Igrok's method.

I want to give a quick update on why I haven't been any good at responding to e-mails and PM the past few months, hoping you can forgive my lack of responds.

As some of you may already know, I was determent to continue to trade full-time after finishing my Bachelor degree in Marketing. As things turned out, I got offered a job in a communication department here in Oslo - which I accepted.
It was a very hard choice, as my managed account was doing great before the summer. So I had to choose between:

1. My grand passion, Trading! The negative with trading was variable income but worst of all, the loneliness. Oh, the loneliness. I could live with variable income but sitting alone infront of my screens was definitely the hardest part.

2. A great job among 400 colleagues, working with communications (which I also enjoy) with a regular, monthly check.

Half year into the new job, I don't regret. It has been great working closer to humans again, I had almost forgot how it was.

Per now, I trade part-time and recently installed my FX charts at work so I can monitor the screens almost as before. If you have any questions, feel free to either PM/mail me or ask in this thread - I would be more than happy to assist

Alright, enough life-history! Some losers, some winners the past week. My second best trade was today's 18.4 on CAD, as JP pointed out. Aud/usd repeated the same pattern as the day before, earlier this week. See attached chart.

Best,

Yeah, some of the jpy crosses have been trending. AUDJPY was an excellent choice especially for IW. One can really see it on H1/H4

CADJPY is also trending incredibly just following its 'parent' pair (USDCAD) and trending nicely. It shouldn't be hard to figure out which direction to take trades.

That's what we are looking for. Especially for a trend following system such as 18.4...

On the other hand, consolidating pairs at the moment (EU,GU end EG for example) can give us the hardest of times. I personally, stay away from those.

AS for EG, it's not tradable anymore on ID basis due to it's low range size. I just trade it IW. But that's just me.

Ha,

I prayed for my stops on that one. Saved by 1-2 pips. At the end, it payed off just as the kiwi one too. Although the KIWI one was more of a counter trend trade IMHO.

Good to see ya around!

Looks like the old crowd is back.

Gold is on my list these days. Some possible triangles there. The sequence of the moves in one place isn't 100% right, but I like the upper TL of the formation.

P.S.: Silver has something alike.

Hey guys. Ready for the upcoming week? Some #20.6s and figures on EU. Range templates might help solving the puzzle here. Decisions - tomorrow. I wish a profitable week for all of us! See you.

Hi brother. Always ready and on point. Your chart is beautiful! There's nothing more to add, just that Euro has a confirmed bullish div on the daily and perhaps weekly bullish crossover later on. Personally I'd love to see the big blue ascending channel filled, but then again, as I check Cables picture, downside looks fragile just as well. Anyway those are sweet #20.6's and I'll be looking for a ride wherever the price takes us.)

Many green pips and lets rock!

Yours truly.
Bel.

20.6, 18.1 and 18.4 all counter trend trades in USDCAD.

Supported by MACD divergence.

Lets see how it goes. Could try to take out the total divergence level.

Would it be fair to say that USDCAD is trapped between IY18.4 Long and IW18.4 short?

LOL

By the way: sym/support on feb. low @0.9841.

0.9841 turned around. To the pip. Now, looking for possible IW long.

Nice to come home to collected TP at 90% ADR.

Anyone knows why my GBPUSD MMOY is down, and MMOY AUDUSD is up? Any update of the Range trader indicator?


Take care!

Today we had some nice trades:

GBPJPY (failed), GU (nice) and EURUSD (nice) on ID basis.

NZDUSD on IW basis.
And as already posted, yesterday was USDCAD on IY basis.

By the way, GU broke out of the triangle range it was in (H4). Some bullishness is expected for the following weeks perhaps.

AUDUSD and NZDUSD also broke out from consolidation.

NZDUSD going for IW target.

Yup. Time to visit 78 eh? Also Euro, Swissey and Silver on the same weekly chart. We got the cross and now lets see if it holds.)
