sold GU @ 1.5988 TP 15 pips and will trail to 1.5960 area if possible
LOL, exactly the same - cable's been so weak, and QE3 imminent? too much uncertainty, I am done. Have a good weekend everyone.

Sure, very well possible. Strong commitment to bond purchases might have caused it. Another one might say that the "Japanese names join the EUR/CHF buying bonanza" might have caused more EUR strength in the morning than GBP today. Another major group saw some further technical bullish potential in EUR/GBP.

To each their own reasons and interpretations. Who knows what in the end caused it.

Edit: perhaps them all combined ;-)

do u still have your sell position?
Actually Nav, it was on Wednesdays small dip that I closed out my shorts, not last week.

I destroyed my short term memory at the University bar I'm afraid, it's a wonder I remember to get out of bed some days

Off to bed

I can't help it

I am scalping all I see and take all I can

look at EU last sell 1.2770

20 pips up already and targetting 1.2710-2695 as last TP where I would buy again if charts show me this.

also short on AUD for 100 pips TP

what can I do? monthly chart and weekly are all bears and important ones

maybe I'll get a discount price of 1.62 on GU to short the hell out of it

1.5767 is the line in the sand for the buys or sells acc to my charts

but I use diff kind of charts so .....

I see...I am focusing on buying the dips, especially on pound and euro which have been buying since June. I understand a scalp at 1.6000/1.6040 but below is wacky to me.
I see your rationale behind the Aussie short though, expecting it to go back to 1.0220.

Holding pound long and buying dips.

Here is my short-medium term view of a 4h zoomed out chart to see the demand/supply zones.

Would like to see a pullback to point A, then test and break through point B and final TP at point C. Will be glad to see other's insights of similar timeframe.
Updated from 2 weeks ago. Still looking good, no heavy shorting for me yet until 6050 or above

great calls my friend not seen you in a while.

i think alot of bears looking to enter the market at 1.6050

maybe not enough to turn this around though until 1.63
