I'm calling on those reading here to comment on this latest trade.

Short EURUSD @ 1.2964. Wow, I'm short on the Euro. That'll shut up a few critics who claim I'm a permabull.

I'm too early on this trade. Care to guess why I took it anyways? Hmmm?

Acting contrary to the general sentiment on that thread can sometimes be wise.

I'm too early because there's only a partial confirmation in that only Tenkan-Sen and Kijun-Sen have crossed but is above the cloud.

Also, chikou-span (the cyan line) hasn't popped under yet.

So, it's too early. For that reason, I only took a partial position to add more later if it goes my way. I'll post more as it develops.

Hey Jay,

I looked at this, but missed the boat, it might top out at 1.050 area ?, AUD rate release seems to be pushing hard at the moment so maybe higher ?

I don't know if it already has topped or will top out or whatever. I'm not predicting anything.

I'll just post when I decide to get out.

Ikomuchi or how ever they're pronounced.. always looked like someone didn't make it the bathroom in time. Nice job on the shorts. I've been shorting the euro quite a bit the last few weeks with the one of the only longs being right before the election announcements. that would have been a better short, but I missed that one.

Totally not related to trading, but when I saw the title of your thread it reminded me of a book I read in high school called Jay's Journal. About some kid that got involved in drugs and the occult and eventually killed himself.

So hopefully you're not involved in drugs or the occult and killed yourself.

Ichimoku

And while nobody should be married to a trade study, I'd like to know why it looks to you like someone who didn't make it to the bathroom in time.

I use to "experiment" with certain leafy things which made Ren & Stimpy a whole lot more fun but I'm off that.

As far as the occult, no, not into that either.

And my wife will eventually kill me so I don't need to

Scratch that. Not closing it now. Sometimes you're wrong in a good way.
