Took the short setup as first trade of new year...That support level was too good to pass up. Had a pending sell at 120.7 with a sl at 120.825 that got triggered stops moved to BE at +20 pips. Letting her ride now. My optimum target is 118 but well see. I feel like were going to range now between the 120.8-118 levels for a bit. Gotta beak this 120.325 level {image} {image}
Im out of my short +40 120 and 185 looking strong ill wait for retest or if we start going up ill long it with stops below 120 and 185 on dollar yen and geppy.

Just replied EURUSD thread and stated that next week would be a big week for dollar and possibly break above its 121.00 level.
To save the time, here is the link.

.... dude if you keep reversing your positions back and forth back and forth your going to keep getting stopped out in both directions. Find the levels of support/resistance on your chart and wait for high probability set ups. You have to stop jumping in every time trade goes against you. Set your s/l and stop looking.

you do realize that 120.3-5 is a resistance area and we will most likely bounce from here or consolidate. Your also entering on a Friday where we could gap up or down either way here.

Today has been rough, I lost over 30 pips and barely recovered them. This will be last time I trade on fridays unless its NFP.

I find Fridays kinda rough to begin with. I've often thought about cutting them out myself. That and Sundays

Any run up is just an opportunity to short. Data was bad. Important bps off but still bad. Short the pullback. This obvious analysis was brought to you by Liam & Liam forexgods Inc.
so hows the short work? or did you buy the dip?

I was short when news came out and then bought when it filled the gap

Decent day for me.

Holding long position over weekend. BIG week next week.

How did you get along?

Hey Elite,

I took a break for a few days - took a loss last week that I shouldnt have. Took a few days off and done well today.

Even though the last few days have been good for bulls on UJ - missed it all and came back.

That helped massively!

How you getting along?
