{quote} it is tough to take a long but on the monthly theres a descending trendline to around 1.6260 ish area..with ADP stuff..it is possible that price may head toward that area..which is kinda what im doing..i doubt this will go anywhere till US release the bigger news so may range till then.. lets see
Indeed, it's a bit of a speculative one into this bigass down move, but Ill keep my stop just below 1.600 to keep it in check. Cheers for the feedback

Anyone looking at going long here from a fib perspective? {image} {image} Edit: smallest lot long entered, Target ~ 1.66
I can see what you're saying - with price being at fib line in sand 76.8% of the SEP10/18 pullback - with the level matched on SEP16 low also - but, no - the pullback (being a pullback ) is part of the larger bear trend - there has been no PA clue to say bullish in the last 10 days or so. I'd like to see a reversal pattern play out before longs.

nb. - talking HTF: H4 and above, which would mean targets 80+ pips - not talking scalps here

yes i know ,, we have annual inspection today so all hands on deck in the last meeting it was brought up that i should be more hands on again, plus the wife complaining about the time spent on this thread and the pc,, i had to get George to ,,sorry my neighbour to go into the house so i can link into my home pc this morning,lol,but thats crazzzzzy as on the way up here on the train i was getting withdrawal symptoms thinking no trading. so maybe i should have a hard look at things,even my gym workouts suffer as i constantly watch the pc , it been nearly 1 year and the return works out not as good as i thought , yes big wins but big losers too, so maybe at the end of this week i will make the decision.SAD B

Thanks for the perspective chazzle, I don't doubt high chance of being wrong here due to the ongoing bear stampede. but with the small lot size I figure its worth a cheap punt as the fibs have been more or less holding up this last while on GU. My only other rational is that most people are short right now Sometimes thats enough on its own!lol

Yeah when you're having withdrawals (other than drink?? lol) it's time to step back a bit and gather some perspective. I'm coming to the conclusion I need to hold off trading for a while. Just way too much going on here with everything. Loosing my focus and it's costing me normal profits in the end. Thought I could take it all on and trade too but, guess I was wrong?

Thanks GM. Just remind me not to put these stupid lines in the way all the time. Price keeps bouncing off the darn things. Thought that news spike would take out 1.61608 but nope. You think maybe a softer shade of yellow would have helped?

i seeing a possibility of a reversal its slim but if it does it might be here..however longer term charts suggest it is against the trend..

looking for 1.63 (slim probability)

It's a better to trade that way, yeah Billy. You ought to find a quiet corner in your company where you can trade undisturbed. Will do wonders to your trading.

yes no easy this past year out off work at 55 was just an excuse to get away from dealing with staff and letting my wife run it,,with manages too, sometimes i feel guilty when she leaves for work, even now i am no this where i should be getting ready for the 2pm inspection,,but i pay people to do that, if this shows signs now as going possibly wrong ,i think i will calculate where my years profit can safely be traded to a potential total loss ie,, 9k sl lets say 1.54 then leave it long ??lets get this day over ,,i have to work now so see you later Billy,,do any other traders have a same story ,, post it please ..
