{quote} I like the long set up ... I have some questions to ask, there is the Fed Chair Yellen Testifies news .. what do you think it will be most likely, hawkish? Will the UJ shoot up to 123.8x or more?
Good Trading

{quote} Long or short?
hope so , been long at 123.40.. hope the non-jobs pmi is good.. or im screwed haha.. did you hear what happened to the false news report on the Euro cut? hah.. bet someone is fired..
The last trade was long .. small profit ... it was nothing ...
Now I wait ... until all the dust has settled ...
No place for feelings in this business ... we must think, not feel ... well ... lesson learned ....
Edit :
Fundamentally I don't understand what was happened, ECB and UJ .. I was expecting a hawkish statement from Yellen, was wrong to assume ... Anyone care to share their thoughts?
Cheers

{quote} He's Long {quote} I was riding both ... the first long went smooth, 2nd was long I took losses, because of the target has not reached, 3rd was short, again I let greed took over ... was profiting but I didn't take just because it has not reach my target yet .. and then the pullback .. fear kicks in, so I took the losses ... and then It coming back down and hit my target ... Really stupid of me
That is my advice. I really do not know anything more!
Good Trading Friend!

Trying to play the funnymentals game will get ya eventually.
Having to guess right both the news itself and the reaction to it is a lot harder than simply following what price actually does.

{quote} I wish I could help you with fundamentals. All I can say is watch your charts and play what you see, and I would never try to predict the direction of the news. In fact, I avoid the news. Know your candlestick formations, and what they mean.. I aso find it best to wait 15 minutes until after the news to see what the market sentiment is, then make the right trade when you know for sure. That is my advice. I really do not know anything more! Good Trading Friend!
