{quote} Accumulating drawdown now Only need 100pips drop to make profit.I think we might see lot more next week.Its obvious this whole week has been "risk off" on cable but that could change next week. Institutions don't only buy they sell as well.Price is pushing on 200 fib extension which is pretty far out.6680's I anticipate sell orders waiting. {image}
i think rising wedge still alive, just was rebound from the wedge bottom line

This batch of shorts are factored 6750 as my ceiling.If price gets there I will make a decision then.That's 2011 high.

I also believe in concept of elasticity.When price is pushed to far out from 200SMA it tends to want to come to it as a equilibrium.200sma is around 5775. {image}
I expect the same.

I always said my timing sucked, but it looks like I'm still good with projected levels.

Careful here with shorts. I know it looks tempting, but other than a small retrace before continuing, it's a USD slaughter.

{quote} Have a look at G/A and E/A Holding U/CAD long?
No I cashed out my U/CAD longs quite a while ago.
Haven't touched it since, but I see my original target of 1.10 has been surpassed.
Booking coin on Cable, Swissy and SP500 for now and I'm not disappointed at all.

in 6-12 month period. There are very few bullish factors for GBP.

I am not happy with my trading.I overestimated USD.Honestly I did not expect this shooting up so ferociously.Now sadly watching my account drawdown getting bigger.
