It's just that also EJ EA etc were on strong R's, wanted to go up. I told you yesterday that we shouldn't go MUCH lower than yesterda's low before Friday.

30% of yesterday's move, if broken then 50%, if broken then full move correction.

1.0930 is target for now
Be hopeful in a winning position, and fearful in a losing position.

I've shorted again at 70 being contrarian. A move above 77 again will take me out. Otherwise, I think a move below 64, we are so close, if it happens again, is very bearish.

Well the only thing painless about that was that it was quick and not that costly.

It was a REALLy dumb trade. all my lines are support lines now...stupid move. So instead I'm long now...

AHHHHHH Belissimo

Closed at 88 +20 (pivot - expect retrace then again on touch of 34C long). Will buy one of the red circles, unless we run directly to 200 ema or daily open.

{quote} Heh. He's done it before on EU thread. It's easier to remember with rounding. +-3 does not make a diff unless you use 3 pip stop.
Very correct, you cannot be pip perfect, it's impossible.

Finally cracked my short at 75. See if it retreats back to DL from here which would make a perfectly volatile day. 64.7 or today's open is the key price now and again.

Why you entered at 70? We made a double from the bottom 33-93 then one down to 63.
Count the swings

Entered on retest of 200ema 1m from above. Should have just used wider sl (10p). But yeah, wasn't paying much attention to EU when I opened it, just saw it there and opened a trade as it complied to my system. Haven't counted swings so far, will check them now.

KzX doesn't like it when we take trades in no man's land between 30p HL swings...understandable, but I'm not sure that going long at 63 would have been much better, since 63 is right at daily MP and below open.

If it doesn't get back up over 65 soon, it might get ugly for longs real fast here.

Therfore you should scalp and not be greedy when you take trades against the main trend. Careful traders will wait for shorts only.

Psst. swing started at 77, termianation after 25-30p - 847-852

Edit: You had 15p bounce after 63 first touch
