Another thought. Its important to make a distinction between the two. Moves in a direction without large, stop-taking retracements can sustain extremely large moves (the ones you DO NOT want to trade against!) IF they are built right. There needs to be confusion the whole build-up. Then everyone realizes where its going at the end and they all want out through the same door, hahaha.

Me personally, I am going to bail on my short above Friday's low of 1.5342 (at 1.5350). I will reload short if it heels over a little bit more and we get some MA crossovers and a "good angle" on the descending EMA's. Not seeing that now: {image} Truth be told, I was trading counter-trend on the move up, expecting breaks at resistance, which really didn't occur until 1.5440-ish ... .
So glad to have gotten out at .5350-ish ... :

I could've hung in there, but better to reload when the picture comes into greater focus ... .

GBP looking bearish against everything. I think GBPUSD bears will be looking good if we sit tight. These types of moves seen today are always a problem for me. They reverse off a not-so-important spot and seem unnecessary. Plus, they could turn at any level and sometimes travel just beyond the previous high/low (1.5480 in this trade) before reversing. The pattern leading into them always contains a clue that it could happen, but nothing that screams that it WILL happen. It can just as easily keep going and everything would look fine. It all goes...
Such a tempting short set-up ... . I assume someone's betting on Yellen actually saying something "concrete" about the timing of Fed rate hikes, which she won't do unless she slips up. Always hate Fed Chairman testimony week ... . The market always seems to be actually expecting something other than "We're going to play it by ear ... ."

I don't really try to predict fundamentals, I just keep track of when they're coming out. But if you were to enter now, even a stop all the way at 1.5617 and target at 1.5123 would equal a 1:2 trade. A stop at 1.5480 with same target equals an 1:11 risk:reward

Yep. That's why I said it's so tempting ... . (Fingers hover anxiously over mouse ... . Devil on shoulder says "Just click it. Click it!!! You know you want to.").

1.538 1.54 should be watched.
Another bounce might happen.
PA must be strong enough to break this level.
Next 1.532 and 1.522 (but I am not sure if gu will get here)

We're good, man. Pound looks ready to slide against all other majors, especially NZD and AUD. Besides what I already mentioned, I really can't see GBP going down strong on GBPNZD or GBPAUD while at the same time going UP in GBPUSD.

1.5220 MINIMUM. That is very conservative, I think. I'm looking at 1.5050 though I might exit earlier if I think I can get back in at a better price before it hits 1.5050.

Hi Zappa, as to GA be careful of bullish engulfing candle at Daily.
1.96 seems strong support.

I revised tp on my short gu and gj.
gu tp 1.54. (53850 is possible)
gj tp 183.

{quote} I think it's a good entry we got a descent weekly bunch above us as resistance and last week showed hesitation. We still got a bit more up to go though I think but not before profit taking opportunities. Something like this anyway. Fingers crossed {image} {image} {image}
