{quote} What I said is that this current leg will mark the low of this month. In my books, a candle only LL in monthly is irrelevant right now. The swing to parity was opened on January close in monthlies and reconfirmed on the Q close. Is nothing to see and no plan B in the mid term swing outlook [technically we would need 1.20xx to trigger a plan B so out of range both TA and FAwise). sisse
Got it, thanks.

{quote} 550's is next and last area for longer term bulls to play
We are looking at profit taking first not a buying play .... NY will kill/decide this quite quickly in the opening range if London goes home holding intraday or clean ... I wouldn't worry too much at buying areas today there is no reason intraday neither hurry for anything above .... Lets see how 1.058x plays out with NY opening ...

first level to limit up move is 1.063x if go through it a daily roll @1.06x is most likely and we really need a trigger to avoid sell off through 1.04x handle as the way it played out that level is immediate target next few sessions !

On the bright side, the aforementioned levels where both respected to about 1 pip, which should mean 0496 will have a pop before the LL. Good RR there, I'll risk a half percent counter trade there if it proves true. Much better if it happens early next week, cant countertrade this cat-crap on a friday.

edit: thanks for calling my attention to it. Took a short off the mini-leg @ 50% - fly by the seat of my pants type short, opened up platform, saw it, time is right. Same as usual scalp, be @ 10 pips, may run may not. Lather, rinse, repeat.

edit2: added a second chart (5M) for those that cant post wondering how/why. Was good for 20 pips so far, usually is for 20-70 pips depending on TF, I just hold for the possible LL instead and get stopped @ be quite a bit. I taught this trade earlier in the week, pretty basic.

edit3: stopped @ be. Another way is to assume no HH past the 50% touch, and keep stop above the current high. Will increase your win %. I don't tolerate losers very well, so I tend to put my stops in ASAP and suffer the lower win %, but also a lower loss %.

that's enough for me today, without a HH that trade was clever and should see the most recent mini-leg low, aiming at the large leg low.

I'll probably be in later to bs and post some sexy pics. Enjoy your day gentlemen bastards.

Guess that would be the obvious one wouldn't it? Did you short it?

reminds me of The Faint. Good starter for the weekend. Think I'll clear my entire ignore list, start fresh for next week. Will finally be building a desk I've been dying to build for my little office this weekend as well. 8ft x 2ft more or less. Will have my girlfriend in there with me....we'll see how well that goes. Ha.

I'm scalping pennies a bit higher.

The shared office environment didn't work out for me, the witch is playing games and cursing a lot.

Why bother mate especially after your very solid previous posts... my 2 cents ...avoid "mignon" trading...

London didn't take profit, NY intraday barely have get much...inertia play mate ...a tick of lows is enough ...otherwise day is over ...
