Ah, moved my stop on the gbpjpy long to break even, currently about +25 on the position, not liking this range and it could go either way really, see where it ends up... 172.75 would be lovely

{quote} hi.. I got in on gj 20 min ago at 170.584.. same deal on gu 1.66668.. I also think gj should be a good one. wishing everyone a great week ahead.
closed gj for +15.. it just did not make the move and mostly in the red from the get go.
closed gu for BE.

good job to you as well.. it was a tough one to handle after all the bounce it did yesterday.. I gave it all the chances and enough time to make the upward move it just wont do it now i guess.

Yeah I'm keeping out of that pair for a while until it finds a direction, GDP figures out tomorrow for GBP, maybe that will push it somewhere

yep it's waiting for something.. I was hoping I could hold a risk free trade prior to gdp to possibly bank big on the release.. but it looked to static to do so and never reach over +40.

we keep eye on this sukka gdr, lol

Definitely! I think a few limit orders at either side of this tight range is in order for tomorrows release.

Entered into a gbpaud short at 8508

I am not sure on gu short yet.. maybe is just me being stubborn on this one since I am still holding on to the long from feb12th, lol.
yesterdays bearish move looked strong however in bounce right of the lower bracket and pullback is stronger than it should be.
the better place for me to short this and bank the long is the 8550 level (yellow line), if it struggles in the area its a possible sign for breaking out of this week long bracket.. will see what happens.

Hi Guys,

Has been super quiet for me lately, not much going for me at all.

I was looking at shorting GBPAUD after that last hourly bar moving away from the 1.8500 area, but the bar just didnt close how I would have liked it to. Came close to a target level that I would have been looking at though around the 1.84489 area.

A lot of market consolidation going on at the moment.
