{quote} LOL
I was long from 98 14 and closed 7 pips when saw that those buyers at the beginning of american session have no power - so I believe that LOL is infront of your mirror, also I went short from 98 to 97 60...so think before to write something funny

Will this continue dropping?

I got stopped out on my long.. it hurt the capital.. but hell. I didn't expect this at all.. just gotta roll with it. I think a lot of people have been waiting for that push below 97.6 and we got decently below that.. a continued sell off wouldn't be the least anticipated thing I would think.. ><
Fall down 7 times, Stand up 8.

Nice buying opportunity for me. I will be looking to buy more lower. We dropped too fast without any major events.

This just looks like a continuation of the trend on the 1hr chart and weekly chart shows a lot of downside potential. Even still on the 4hr chart this is a resistance point. If we can break 96.80 level then plenty of downside. I think I'm gonna stay short. What about you?

IDK price action looks bearish on 1D. EMA convergences, fisher transform indicating price direction. The dollar on the daily is looking to reverse positive gains, too

In and out for a quick few hundred bucks. I hate doing these short term trades. My analysis of my account shows that in the long run, I lose money on my short term trades. I prefer the well thought of, long term ideas. I am not going long USD/JPY. I think we will be going lower on the pair.

But I just can't get myself to stop!

Good morning, got stopped-out indeed. 25% capital gone on that trade. Sigh.

I am just gonna go short AUD/USD now.

25% capital on one trade? ... money management.

Short @ 97.49
