{quote} Traded on the bounce . Ambitious target I know, but I will be moving the stop along the way. {image} {image}
How's this for a white knuckle ride?! Went to -75 pips, now at +90 and BE set. Phew. I said this one was crazy. What do you reckon, will it go all the way?

Careful opening a trade before the massive news release in a few hours.
Stops are going to be run both ways on pairs and you will see false break outs across the board.

GBPCHF: Ok Jen, so price broke the 144.8 and blasted past 145. Forget break even, I would take profits now. What are you like +120. Take profits now way before the news. 145.700 may have too many sell orders waiting. No one goes broke taking proft. Trade setups come everyday. Tomorrow will provide another 120. Heck it may be a nice short at 145.700. See how price reacts...

Unfortunately this came within 2 pips of target, reversed and closed at BE. Can't win them all.

Going to short GBPCHF a few pips under 1.47, looking for that support to turn to resistance.

Bagged a quick 29 pips during the night. I like these little trades with tight stops. It's not about pips but volume.

Have another similar one on the go on the EURAUD. Merry Christmas everyone!

My end of week analysis : I'm wracking my head about that EURAUD trade above. Why did it not happen? Ok, I know the Friday before Christmas is a BAD idea, but I've a feeling there's more to it than that. Did I miss something? Time entered was 10:39 GMT, went to about +40pips then reversed and hit BE. If I didn't set the BE, it would have hit the SL. A lot of my losses are like this; is it something to do with the shape of the candles? Your thoughts welcome

There was a key zone in 2010 on the weekly but in reality, hey it's the market. This was on a nice drive since the beginning of November. A nice number like 1.55 would be a nice spot to put a bunch of sell orders right above...

I think it was basically a crap level. Price didn't exactly shoot off from that area, so there might not really have been many buy orders hanging around. On that H4 EURAUD chart, the lower 2 levels are much better. Live and learn

Closed just above 1.46 for +97, back in long at 1.4601 at the whole number and hoping for a bounce away from the 4hr 50ema, target 4683.

Merry christmas.

edit.. out for +32.

That's me done for 2013.

USD/CAD H12 is setting up, currently pulling back to test the trend line
if it bounces i'm short at 1.0575, what do you think, risky because of the major up trend?

Check out Weekly and Daily charts, the price is fighting with solid Resistant zone, I would wait for something more clear:
