don't you hate it when that happens
lol, yeah kinda takes the shine off of the winning trades...

we have a major murray pivot (which capped the overnight move @61), wpp & dpp stacked just above here up to 307x... testing the london high currently, should be interesting if it can break and hold, seeing yesterday as possibly a round of profit taking and a stop loss fuelled move, but let's see...

as i said yesterday, 200 pips is a very common pull back range in a mid to long term trend move... but of course i could be wrong... on the other hand, we've also been in a consolidation range long enough for it to reverse... so jury is still out...

it hinges on how long the fed are prepared to continue cranking up the printing presses...
