{quote} Friday closings are never the same. Besides the diff closing times you mention there are also the different closing spreads that can make a huge difference as liquidity drops to almost zero.

If Mon, Tues US news creates the strong bullish action I expect it will, I won't be at all surprised to see 1.73 before the end of January.

I'm definitely not expecting that. That would be quite the move.

But what news are you expecting to cause such a move? Another 9/11?

Nope, but surging equities and bond yields could do the trick.
Did a 9/11 event occur in May last year?
How big was that monthly candle?

Have a great day guys

Anything is possible, but to see 1.73 within 30 days would require us to see 1.61xx within 2 weeks.
As much as I expect to see 1.66xx, I think that to get beyond that we will need a good size correction first. It may not be as low as 1.61xx but certainly somewhere down there.

Enjoy the zoo. Take a picture if you see a bear wanking.

Completely flat my GBP long at 1.65 about 30 mins ago. Don't want to take the risk of this thing reversing all the way down to 1.64 after seeing what happened Friday...

Year almost over...

Look at it this way...

He tells you to close now
1. prices goes up, you feel relieved, saved. Learn anything?
2. price goes down, you feel mad, and think could've / should've

He tells you to close later
1. price goes up, you feel pissed off, and u get margin call
2. price goes down, you feel saved, almost reinforcing bad behavior unconsciously.

I would recommend YOU make a decision and be completely rational while making this decision so you can live with the outcome and say I made the right choice regardless of what price does.

Best of luck.

Just a friendly advice: if you dont have a good hedge strategy then do not do it! Realize your loss if you dont have any short signal and wait for the other one. But do not forget we have a strong bull trend on daily and the trend is your friend!

Good luck!

relax, market is not too far from that price and very likely hit tomorrow or a few days, watch the price action, stick to your system, then take action.

No idea why we need to see 1.61
Last week closed nicely above the main 38.2 fib for the highest weekly/daily close of the year and can't see price breaking below 1.62 anytime soon.
I see some good daily support and 50 fib around 6395

the upside has been huge, correction?

i thought last week about our chat, was expecting were very profitable for you caused the market went your way,
for me also was very profitable as put some strong shorts and closed them as price action eased downside.
