Something like that. Looks like it's turned around though, so I got stopped out at 6 pips profit.

Reason why you don't teach college math is bc you kept writing simple numbers out like this: (2/1) / (1/2) = 4

There is considerable support for longs.Price did not break slow moving MA's on Guppy

you got the math right this time. I hate teaching even though I got highly trained in college math (6 years college plus graduate school).

GBP/AUD is going down. Shorting cable and longing aussie at the same time to get rid of the effect of USD as much as possible. The USD is too much manipulated by the Fed.

Just giving you shit abt your wording Some peeps long G/U and short A/U at the same time, paying their broker an extra spread for what Gbp/Aud spread is.

Thinking about it, all ccys are controlled by the Fed. Emerging Markets, Equities & Commodities are all about the Fed's actions as well. Picture would be much clearer if they weren't funking the markets all up.

I cannot do GBP/AUD directly as I trade futures. futures does not have GBP/AUD. I mostly do swing trade and a few pips more spread is fine.

Hola hombres
Well I think GBPUSD is the best pair to trade today if we belive that USD will strengthen. Why? Its on the edge of breaking the trendline back to july 2013.
USDCHF is at support. Thats a good trade aswell. But itīs not a break as GBPUSD.

What do u guys think? Good day for those who are shorting?

Its too early.Frankfurt not even open yet and Asia so far is undecided.
It takes great force to break a trend like bad data.We will see.

if they want to spike it down, both good data and bad data will do it. Data itself does not matter. They just need an excuse to trigger. Same for aussie.

4:30 am New York time has many GBP news releases. So today is critical to see which way it spikes.

If it would be a spike down I would guess it would be a new trend down. Or at least a few hundred pips down. If it goes up I would just close it after 150 pips.
This means if Iīm correct. That it is a good Risk Reward entering a short now. Which I have done.

Assuming that is 4-8 trillion dollar market can be manipulated by few banks and hedge funds.I think not. Even Banks and Hedge funds lose money in trading.
News creates momentum.In a uptrend it takes great force to reverse.Its not matter of "they want" There is something about mass impulse which is what Elliot Wave theory is based upon.

Soros broke the BOE once. They just need to spike down cross the trendline, and the masses will reverse and follow
