{quote} Hey Cool Oswell - seems your doing good 113 900 have taken a sell position on the EURO - this is no scalp though this is a trend position should hopefully play out by monday - tuesday with a 120 pip stoploss .
yupp seems doing better now Dean , I'm risking 15 point every entry for 10 point target , so I have to identify the right entry , the right momentum , the right price action before I enter my order. risky but it works for me , Best luck for your trade Dean

{quote} You read that well - 3 days scalping a week is enough ..

Thanks Dean !

My session is over though, I will be trading tomorrow...

If you guys trade tomorrow, be careful with Non-Farm Employment Change, always wait for news to come out. I personally wait 10 minutes before and after those news before I place any trades...

1. watch out for spreads to calm down.
2. wait for the the market to show it's hand.

Hey Dean. Just got into a long on GU at 1.43160. Looking for 1.43600. How's your view for the day prior to NFP?
Edit: thinking about closing it already since 1.43300 seems to be holding . Can't seem to stay put for another 3 hours.

1.43300 bound to be touched again and again today. Not sure about the low. It seems to me that it wants to go a little more S towards S2 at 1.42730.

NFP confuses me Nick - its that simple - its overated and not needed into todays market place. OK Non farm Pay roll we understand the meaning behind it right - but trading it with such speculation is overated - thats my opinion btw others have other views right. One thing that seems to happen alot is the news happens and they do the opposite and then on Monday they make the move happen. Will i trade it NO - will they buy the range back on the dip to take out everyones stop loss for sure they will - lets see.

Have a short on Euro btw just under 114 .. pound dollar wont trade on NFP

You going for the short on pound dollar then Nick ?

I think i'll stay out of it, just as you. I too think that the market has a delay in reaction towards the fundamentals these last weeks. Most of the moves i have seen were actually psychological factors. I'll be looking for long signals minutes after the NFP.

Hey whats up guys...

Saw a few opportunities, but because my fibs are dynamic ... levels change constantly so at the time this trade was taking place.

For example On EUR/USD there was a fib level down at 1.1335 level at the time I took the pic... but at the time when the market actually got near that level, my fibs had moved down to 1.1331 to 1.1329 .. and that's what I was waiting for, so no trade for me...

At times it can be one of those grrrrrr moments, but I know that it is always best to play it safe then to be sorry... of course the trade still worked out in my favor, but in the end we really don't know, all we can do is wait; get the entries we want and be able to manage our stops / targets . It's just a way to stay discipline.

We come back Monday and get ready for another day and a lot more calm.

I am out for the day...! laters!
