Meh. First thing price loves to do more then not, is break a new low, then retest the previous LH. Clean play, imo. I'm out as well.

I noticed a few posts here and there on Fibs, so I did a little Fib work. The 4H and 1D correlated and show the same direction of 1.29-3 in the short-term while the 1W and 1M show the same down trend, but there is an ultimate goal of 1.2765-8......



A close below green line, 1.2744 shouldn't be an issue. 1.266 by end of summer?

I should have looked at my Gann Hilo before I closed.

{quote} some people shouldn't trade.
Most people shouldn´t trade...

I met this guy today on one of our meetings who loses cca. USD 50k trading (he´s a high ranking C-suite so for him it´s not matter of life and death) every single year for like last 10 years. When I tried to understand wtf, his argument was something like "I can either lose it in Vegas or this way, but I enjoy this more".

Incredible. I mean we need those guys to fill our pockets, guys in JPM or GS won´t...But this kind of reckless gambling stupidity from a fellow who manages more than 100 people kinda astonishes me...

{quote} This EU stuff made 15% on my net capital, my week can't go broke anymore.
Kudos, well played.

However, I kinda wonder what your risk management is if these three trades could actually make up to 15% of your account...

RR?

She begged for 2770 for a long time. Gator actually pointed it out several times, over and over again in this thread...

I would love to see a bounce here, I really would. That would fit perfectly into the overall picture.

possible back test of 284ish for downward movement to 2745.

...kinda with you here but I can never afford a pretty big stop

The probability is not high but RR too attractive.

For those that are observing, reading and learning... there is a goldmine in this statement.

Understand the numbers game... the rest will come.
