did some scalping between a couple pairs and made back a little over 100 pips from earlier. Feeling better about myself, looking at GBP/JPY again.

Be careful, man. Doing that won't always work. You're going to need to learn how to deal with screwing up without having to make it back in the markets. But I'm glad you're feeling better. Just be aware of your mental shortcomings when it comes to trading and start working on it.

Here's a 5-minute timeframe chart. I know we talked about not looking at these lower TF's much but when you have big moves like this it can help to drill down. Pretty simple here... if that line breaks a bit further I'm thinking we're heading lower even further.

I am very aware of it unfortunately. I am the worst sore loser possibly on this forum lol. I haven't been doing this for more than 6 months. I'm a college student who pretty much wondered across the forex universe by chance. I may have a natural affinity to understand markets easier than some. But, what has hurt me more then being flat out wrong on a trade is trying to "make-back" those losses which in turn is forcing bad trades. Anyway I fully acknowledge this as my biggest shortcoming... If anyone has any solid book references on this topic I'm all ears.

I think most traders struggle with this. I certainly did (big time), and still do (not as much). There was one book I read that helped my mental game immensely and I highly recommend it. I intend to do a full write-up on my blog about it in the future, but here's the link.

G/J almost forces you to dig down into the M1 and M5s when it really takes off. No waves to be seen on the higher TFs.

Funny you should say that. Last night I woke up in a haze and checked the markets (I usually do this) and saw my SL on my GBP/JPY had just been hit. I placed a limit sell order about 10 pips above current price. Woke up hours later and saw price 200+ pips lower and I never got filled.

When this thing goes, it goes!

I won't be surprised if GBP/JPY takes out today's lows pretty soon.

Oh damn, it just did while I was typing!

Nice, man. Congrats on getting some back!

I'm locked and loaded with an open target. I think the next 24 hours have the potential to be a blood bath.

{quote} i typically use a combination of BB bands, RSI, and MACD on an daily and hourly timeframe, and right now they confirm everything you say. should be support around 169.8 within the next day or two. maybe it'll hold but, if it doesn't, it could be a quick trip to 165-166.
nailed it!
