AUDUSD Hourly:

Been a rather quiet start to the week for me so far.

I was watching this one just now for a long entry on this pair.

I got slightly distracted right at the time of the new bar and missed the entry.

Oh well, that's the way it goes.

Hard sl hit on this one... interesting trade where it surged strongly to nearly close to my target but to only turn against massively to entry point.. at that point I decided to leave it over night where it did resume a bit to +50 which if I was up (can't monitor 24hrs around clock) I would have either banked that amount or for sure set the stop at BE to let in be till morning when I start screening again. I know nzd moves around that time but i saw no main reason for a large move to happen.. anyways a bit unfortunate, with the initial turn against me and the partial resume happening during none screening time of mine.. this was good winner that got slipped and backfired for a full loss.. it's all good and more importantly it was not miss managed, so the loss is welcomed, get'em next time.
Overall it's been a tough week so far staying at breakeven more or less with not much to work with.. but I rather be active from whats on the plate than be on the sideline, that pays off in the long run and it's my style.

looking for more trades today..

eurusd long.. taking this long off the Pb from recent eu march post two announcements eu rate/nfp.. see if sets as a platform for continuation, it could be a nice bounce off the eu rate change high point. I look for recent high test (tough resistant) and Jan/24th 3730ish area.. will see how it plays out.

ps) This one accounts as a trend play for me dwolf,

Hi guys, been away from my PC tonight been out and about, just getting my first look at the charts now since about 2 hours before the London open.

Looks like the GBP pairs had a nice move, assuming that was most likely on the back of some sort of economic data or speech.

Been a rather uneventful week for me so far.

I was long on that pair last night from 8198 but the chinese trade balance release caused that spike down and hit me at break even

I may short gbpjpy @ 169.98 and gbpchf @ 1.4991, both just under major psychological levels... Anyone got any thoughts?

I see the supply zone looming on gbpjpy, but look on the weekly and last week was a perfect pin bar bounce off the 23.6fib. Just sitting on the sidelines .

aye, this months main pivot is looming just under 170 and a daily resistance pivot a few pips above 170, the chances of a bounce away from this area are high IMO but we shall see... sell limit @ 169.98

GDR3K where would you place your stoploss? Too tight or would you play it conservative?

Good luck, that's a brave trade or maybe you're seeing something I'm missing . Saying that, I'm eyeing up eurjpy and chfjpy for shorts, but then they are weaker than gbp.

eurjpy does look like it's loading up for a downmove, especially on the hourly charts.

Regarding my short on gbpjpy... almost all my parameters for a position have been checked, let's see if the statistics are in my favour on this one...

GDR are you using harmonic patterns to pick these setups? or just strong s/r?
