Sorry I've been quiet recently, went off on holiday for 10 days to Spain. Anyway, back to business: Pimco just downgraded Spanish & Italian sovereign bonds, both to negative watch.

{quote} Definitely not the worst 10 days to miss in terms of market action ...
Was thinking, perhaps I should have stayed longer

Hi all, I am back from holiday too ... even if I was in touch with RJ I couldn't look at charts till this evening. I am de-synchronized with the market therefore I think I am going to wait for a couple of days before trading again. ciao wiz

It was strange day for trading, especially flat NY.
Still, the best trade opportunity for me (that I've missed) was EJ after London open. Both M5 and M15 where in sync showing the same long entry. Full matrix on both, good stochs, good arrows on both. What more do we need? Also H1 and H4 were showing uptrend. The only downside was the price under the DP.
I'm posting M5 and M15 charts in case somebody needs further clarification in taking both time frames into consideration.

I have to go out for a few minutes, but I thought I'd better mention something about the current M5/M15 test:
I am only monitoring 4 currency pairs for this test, whereas I was monitoring 10 for the straight m15 test. I don't think it's going to be an issue though because I still only ever take 2 trades at the same time, until at least 1 of them is protected at BE.
Back soon

That was a perfect setup nikz......I missed it too because I was busy in other area's but it was a real sitter. It's good that you spotted it because that's the hardest part.....pulling the trigger is also hard of course, but that's a psychological thing.....

We haven't had a "summer" for over 5 years, just "cold and floods", June through to September
