Seems like days ago but wasn't it just yesterday? I think KzX was saying a 100p dump would be healthy for trend.
haha ikr.. he is always right +/- few pips.. i should have hold onto my shorts.. its hard to get over it.. it happened many times and i still isnt learning from it..

anyway, bought the dip and closed early for +5p..

Looks like it's finally breaking out of low end again long at 89 with SL at 72, gonna leave TP open,
it's either stopped out tonight while I sleep or retraced back up. It could go back straight up back to over 1.1440 now.
It will need a close over 1.14 to confirm, but willing to take another shot at this tonight.

Bingo. Moved stop to 01 even, plus 12 locked, just made up for last bad set of trades, it ain't over till it's over.

Shorted reverse at 01. Stop at 09 offer. TP at 85.

OK the short failed, lost 8, so still plus 4 on this cycle.

One last shot of the day here long at 1.1410. Stop at 97, TP Open until morning.

Closed at half pip, no nerves too tired, +4.5 on this cycle. Equity is above where I started this morning. Sleep now.

EU levels for October 16 1.14800 1.14340 1.14050 1.13790
Hoping your prediction of levels is EXACT just like a couple of times last week.

Just woke up and went long from 1.13814, stop at 1.13700 or sooner. A low end of 1.13790 and high end of 1.14800 suits me just fine today.

Edit: out at 78.5 so -2.9p, if it doesn't give it up right away to me today, I'm out. Not interested in trades that don't give me immediate gratification today. Instead of 1 trade at -12, I'll take 4 trades at -3 and look for quick ones that might turn into more. If it even begins to burn me a bit, I'm out.

01:38 new long at 77.4 less than 5p stop out on unfavorable PA

EURGBP looks as if basing out on 1mn so I took an earlier long there.

EURUSD half hour candles are waking up and 1hr candle may finally hold a bullish candle this morning

Long again EURUSD at 68. EURGBP is holding steady in profit, now if EURUSD will follow...

Finally caught an early morning runner, about time. That hourly bar finally woke up off the bottom for now.

Question for cross market traders:

GBP stronger than USD = GBPUSD UP
EUR stronger than GPB = EURGPB UP
Therefore,
EUR is stronger than USD right? EURUSD UP

No?

I know the markets don't correlate tick by tick unless strong news is hitting all markets at once, but EURUSD does not want to show what the other 2 are doing now.

Nevermind...there it went.
