{quote} last h closed below 1249.. its bearish... so revert back to that if things fail.. i am looking for clues of a possible bounce... a fresh close above 1249 would help.. but its just for a st bounce to get a higher sell price..
im watching 1232 for a bounce.
follow the flow

{quote} im watching 1232 for a bounce.
to each his own, i zoomed in on a smaller tf.. 1240 is a min.. 1232 would also work..

i am cheap, i like a better price.. with a smaller stop loss

it hasn't made a 1278 high or even a new close above 1249. i just like to plan ahead of time.

some fools will take this as me saying its going there.. nope.. i didnt.. i am just planning my plan.

I know some other traders here talk about USD/CAD,,was the recent 3 hr drop all of sudden due to the crude price going up as well over the same time period? was having a nice ride up till then,,now Stopped out.
not sure which up ride you talking about shes been up and down all week, blue is weekly open zone orange dailys all provn very profitable this week, is another view of H&S with weekly zone as neckline, on daily is double top, bigger trend is hard up but if bears can have another attack on that blue zone she could start tracking south, otherise she going to continue north, presently shes in 4th day of east ranging, last hr was hammer but shes in no mans land for now will have todays open zone in 100mins

{quote} I still cant believe the price has dropped this much so quick... thinking about all the traders who do the 'let your profits run' strategy... i think that can only work for Very long term traders who place a trade one or 2 times a year... and that aint me... wish i could
I'm following FxTyrant with his EURUSD trade. Although a bit higher than him, I let my short that I opened at 1.0950 run just like him.
Even when we went above 1.16xx I still had it open and I added a smaller sized lot than my original one at around 1.13 which caused my B/E to move up to quit a bit.
Now I'm almost back at B/E (about 250 pips removed) without any loss
Of course, I missed a nice bull run but I also didn't lose anything. I'm also picking stocks and I did the same there, I even added more aggressively and I'm now close to green with all stocks

In short, it really depends, if you have enough cash at hand and don't over do it, you can leave your trades running for months and watch the profits stack up as you add on the moves up (or down if short).

P.S.: FT's DD has shrunk quit a bit I must say.

Why thank you, I do try my best. I figure it might be interesting to read a nice story from a not so frequent visitor of this forum from time to time .
I can always provide screenshots of my trading account through PM if you require validation of some sort. Of course, I know that you might believe even that is false(/altered).

Hilarious, I am...
No need to send me screen shots, you have absolutely nothing to prove me or ask my validation. Your account you trade it as you wish

Bubble i have long been talking about has finally started to burst
A noob calling a bubble bursting obviously signifies an important bottom, just like Jim Cramer bashing a stock.

Ok, macro fundie analysts, who wants to explain this? Last time it was risk off in 2008, stock markets crashed, and people BOUGHT the dollar, in spite of the fact that the Fed was obviously going to lower rates, and in spite of the fact that the US economy was falling apart from the collapse of the housing bubble. Now we have risk off, stock markets are collapsing, and people are SELLING the dollar, in spite of the fact that the Fed is (theoretically at least) going to raise rates and the the US economy is RECOVERING finally from the collapse of...
1. China devalues => EM FX gets steamrolled => risk off => carry trade unwind => funding currency (in this case EUR) gets pumped

2. China devalues => equities (especially in countries with strong Ex to China) get hurt => DAX goes down => ECB QE trade unwind => FX hedges unwind => EUR gets pumped.

Not sure how much more straightforward it can get, really.

When you say "pumped" does this mean the eu/us pair goes up?
