DE30 +44 +ongoing. 123 reversal. Trying for the 50% Retr of the gap down. Couple of hundred pips for the Gap down,not worth showing.

EDIT. Moved SL upto +36. @ 1.10879

DE30 +44 +83. That was quick, looks like I have under estimated the strength of the pullback. We may get a full GAP fill particularly as the Greek NO vote actually achieved nothing, every thing is exactly as it was before.

DE30. Here is the full detail of the trade. Initially DBL Btm + Div on both the 5 & 10 pip charts. Perfect 123 formation with the pullback to the 61.8%.
If I had set my TP according to the 123 Exts I could have got an extra 20 pips, but I opted for the 50% GAP Retr as that was a safe bet, but we got there so quickly it took me by surprise, I was expecting more resistance to the move up.

Funny thing about brokers, my 5 pip chart does not show a DBL Btm but it does have a well defined Divergence

DE30 +56+21+14+3+ongoing. This is probably my last one for today.

EDIT. SL hit again for +2. There is no momentum, the last 4 trades all taken on the sl, I am keeping it pretty tight but under the circumstances I am not prepared to give it a lot of room, just 1 fart from a politician today could send it the other way, they (the politicians) obviously did not eat much cabbage this weekend as today has been odourless, so far!

Sloppy of me!! I did not put the HI/LOW fib on for today, if I had done I would have seen that price was around the 50% retr for today.

Be A Lert, carelessness costs pips, better to be frustrated rather than a frustrated cry baby bemoaning the loss of pips.

DE30 +36 +33. couple more for the pot. Can not resist a good divergence at a key level, still Risk Averse so over cautious, exited too early on the first one, that is why I jumped back in.

I was convinced that price was coming back down so I watched it climb all the way back up, cursing every pip along the way, resisting the urge to jump on board, when finally, it turned around and came back down, as you can imagine I felt quite smug at being proven right, how ever it meant that I had missed an 80 - 90 pip run up, now I don't feel quite so smug!

Hah! I had the opposite problem. Had a couple of longs and exited at the double top but thought price would retrace then go up further - so I missed the shorts!

DE30 +21+15+20+19. First ones on the scoreboard for today. When looking at these charts you have to ask your self why was this more than 1 trade, because, I did not think that it had the legs so I targeted the individual Fib levels, apart from the last one where the BRN was the safest bet.
This also shows, if you are one of the traders struggling to hold a trade because you have a bad case of TFS it does not mean that you can not build up some pips, safely. Just use the stochs cycle to keep you on the right side of the move.
Bugger!!!!!! I just missed my entry because I am posting. One or the other but not both!!!!!

hahaha thanks for the chapeau!

I'm trying to focusing on the medium-long term chart,
this gives me a hand to hold the positions a little longer,
and following a basic PA (really basic ..), open positions that I think interesting according with long-term trend
this allows me to check the positions less often, and in the meantime, time to 'look around'...

EDIT:audusd is going down!

DE30 +17. I managed to get out for +17 as divergence kicked it back up towards my B/E. 92 pips is ok for a morning's work, now I am going to wait for the Americans.

cycle question..
in the sense that we look at the stoch in the HTF and expect that it lines on the main trend,
expect returns from a state of overbought / oversold, we move to the LTF and exploit all the oscillations aligned Stoch HTF ...?
It is right the way of the cycle?
