Some nice moves here. How you guys been trading?! I've been good. Just turned the last $40 of my deposit back into $950, within 2 days (since Sunday market open). Using binary options. $949.50, to be exact. Check it... biatch! {image} At first, I made 1,800% within 2 1/2 days. But then I lost it all. Then I made 600% the following day. But I lost that too. And now I just made 2,000%+ (from $40 USD) into about $1k, and I'm hoping not to lose it this time!

you may be right about this one.

i got a little scared i missed my entry the first bounce at 103.91.

got in at x.90, sl @ x.75. ...will see if this is just a s/l flush for the london open or not.

Ahh i see, well I think this is high probability trade because I waited 2 days for this entry. Unfortunately FOMC is around the corner and anything can happen so Ill probably just take some profits off and leave the rest to run. Hopefully the News can move this 200+ pips or I get stopped out at breakeven.

We've seen this before? I'm short out of the lower trend line, if it fails. Look out for price action if there is a retest, get in on a pull back if there is no proper retest: {image}
Could this be a break from the rising channel? Thoughts? Maybe wait one more hour for confirmation? (I am not trading until after FOMC, I've gotten burned too many times by them!)

Rejection from reversal pattern at 103.4 (as expected). Next stop double bottom, 101 and triangle apex.
Maybe, as long as it can get under 102.7

Actually i got my signal at 103.09 to enter short but i decided to go after the 103.00 round number break. Hmm maybe we seeing it different because I only use horizontal trendlines. Never did get into the pennants and flags and other formations I see posted here often

Trading FOMC statement 140129 WED 1900GMT

The FED should be announcing another round of $10B taper of QE. This is a bullish USD move. Large volatility is expected. Remember to manage your position size accordingly.

2 ways to play this move.


A) Short AUDUSD 3 mins before 1900GMT
SL 50pips
TP trailing stop


B) Long USDJPY 3 mins before 1900GMT
SL 50pips
TP trailing stop

you seem quite sure for a bullish USD move.
The good thing with the future is that it is progressively approaching...

USDJPY Outlook and Trade setup 29th Jan, 2014- Midweek report
Daily Chart
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-EDWtVjWOG9...1-29_12-31.jpg



  1. Reason why i am using the Ichikumo indicator is that the yen pairs do respect this indicators more than any other currency.
  2. As you can see on the daily, it has rejected the clouds , however the lines (you can say the moving average line) is acting as minor resistance for the meantime
  3. Although the clouds have been rejected, we cannot ignore the fact that it looks bearish, and i would like this to reach my first level of support on my chart and go long. (note second level of resis, might not be reached)

Hourly Chart
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cLRHk-5tqK...1-29_12-31.jpg





  1. On the hourly, if we get into my sell zone, i would be looking to do a 80% scalp and leave 20% trade and possibly ride into new lows (as mentioned in Daily Chart)

Outlook Trade opportunity
Please see hourly chart and also Daily chart

Risk Level LOW
