Just waiting and waiting Been waiting since early yesterday for price to come back! hah, it almost always does! Although, I didn't expect such a deep retrace. Once again on the verge of flipping the flow again

Dirty!! And now the H4 is in threat of creating a potential H&S. haha. Over before it even got started. What a mess these markets are. Every so often, they screw around even with the Bigger time frames. Days like this... intraday trading is far easier than the overall picture.

It always runs except for that one time you decide to hold it hoping for that run. haha.

This has not been a swing friendly week so far. I was ready for the next level up, but the market has a different plan it appears. Reset, replace orders, rinse repeat

Key going to be watching PA around 3124 up to a max of 3200 again. Whenever we decide to get back there, of course. I also have us needing to visit 2860ish at some point in time. I guess nothing says we dont just bust right through the top again... or the bottom.

dunno, 200 pips is a nice pull back for more upside, so will be watching it closely, could be in for another sharp move up before the end of the week, will be looking to get on board any sustained momentum move... but lets see... on the bear perspective, we have a dbl top and a very nice symmetrical parabolic retrace on the hourly from the move up from tuesday's low...

trying to watch walking dead season 3.5, but damn buffering is doing my head in...

Have you seen the show "Awake"? I am pissed, it only lasted for a season. It is by far one of the most unique, interesting... and somewhat thought inducing shows I've come across in a while. It's on Netflix... at least in the US. Fricken annoying though.

sounds like the heeling process is progressing as it should so glad to hear that.

still trying to survive the winter here and beginning to see signs of spring so i think that progress is being made there also. sounds like your trading is going good. mine for the most part are pretty good too. may not have that many winners but don't have that many losers either

now let's just get moving here

so anyway, assuming i'd stayed in my positions over the last two days (big assumption) and not closed because i had to go to work, although i'm still showing a reasonable gain for the week, it's actually cost me well over a grand sterling in unrealised profit to go to work so far this week... go figure that one...
