{quote} i need a target to figure out my r/r before entering. atm we are with a new high of 3714.. if this remains the same.. i see a 300 pip retrace as normal, even if its eventually going higher. i am more weghted on the eu drop then the gu because the eg indicates further to fall.. so if i wanted to buy the gbp. it would be at least 300 pips lower
hi gator,

i'm just returning to this after 5 month hiatus. made a n00b mistake and traded without SL. it was a typical gambler's mistake... suffered from typical confirmation bias by reading here too much..

1 question... what tools do you use to determine your r/r levels?
it is highly likely that i'm wrong... so dont follow me!

lol, the thing is, there is just no way to know, i agonized about taking profit here too on longs at the end got 1.6700 avg which now isn't trapped anymore, i still think EG lower, you better off chancing EUR short but neither looks appetizing. 3 GBP data points next week, it's probably OK to hold -EG. pretty sure this is still all just EG selling.

EU could fall to 1.362x minimum.

Forgot about the 1.3701/03, we are below it, not good

I don't know man, retailers trapped below 1.3675, let's see if it breaks, i have no longs anymore so i don't really care if it does but but i think it will be defended

No longs neither, it can do whatever it wants

But interest in the 1.367x area. Someone trying to stop the move down, good vol there

no view, but i wouldn't do it myself, only looking for longs but currnetly have none. same EUR
if view is EG lower and EU defended at 1.3675 GU can't go down
these are truly some exceptional market conditions we're witnessing for a while now
let's see if it is defended, for me likely hangman due to trapped shorts but a break is posisble too although i would be surprised because the trapped shorts haven't covered (maybe a little bit)
so do we go long low 8x high 7x (the closer to 75 the better as it improves RR) in the EUR and risk a break? probably high RR

thanks..

i understand you have a lot more factors to consider when looking at price. the direction and the ratio of movement.

I find it hard to understand the direction. Like when you ask where will it go if it wants to go to XXX.. i try to answer but i cant really feel what is the right question to ask. why are levels bear and why are some levels bull. i know bears and bulls take a different path. to put structure into something linear wrecks my brain sometimes. i look to the left... but some levels are not on the left... at least not in the recent path... the market never forgets but wont that make it such that there are way too many data points to consider?
it is highly likely that i'm wrong... so dont follow me!

Nice field to trade for big players, doing December 3rd 2013 week open-close range on usdchf.....unless 52/64 on eurusd gives in, looks a dip for buyers.
They think they are smarter than I am.

could be a nice trade building on her, time will always tell, eu right now at pretty important support, if bulls don't step up, she should be toast :-) watching 4hr chart nice flag in play, waiting to see if bears can breach it
