Hmm... something I hadn't noticed before. It looks like a perfect bounce off the bottom channel, which is a good sign for bullish view... {image}
While I do not trade audnzd, I do think upside move will be limited around 1.0380 in short term. For it to go higher it ll neeed to retest recent low. Just my 2 cents!

Somehow, I couldn't put the link on my signature. I ll dig around later, been away for too long and I forgot how to do it.

{quote} I trade on EURAUD
So if the Euro is weak, then the Aussie Dolar is weak, then EURAUD is UP. This is the Irony of Forex Markets.

And You got 263% so far just with one trade. One single trade. Bravo!

Looking good so far , lets hope U/C finishes the day strong and I'm looking for it to come back and fill the spike leg and reach for 1.3100.

Moved my stop to +1 pip

I take My profit for USD/CAD at 1.3000 for today (Intra-Day).

For GU been manipulating all days and seems been hold to drop at 1.3300 level, taken My stop.

I think the party is over for today. Prices has reached or exceed Daily Range except for UChf, EU and GU.

Good progress today reduce My All Time Result from -59% to -56.7%.

Good stuff​ I'm tempted to close as well, I think we will see a retrace lower now but who knows. I still think we are on our way to 1.31xx.

{quote} That is certainly true even on a daily its been in a consolidation, but its still a 500 pip range. My idea of a big trade is 100+ pips. Most of my trades are between 5-20 pips. Just curious what pairs do you like for trending now? Cheers
Difficult question. Depends on what time frame you are looking at. As far as intra-day, if you have small targets, you could pick just about anything with tight spread. Even Ucad, if you are only going for 5-20 pips. For me, I focus on higher time frames, and don't care how long I hold a position. Could be an hour or a month. But I don't really see anything with strong trend right now, and volatility is very high, so I've been primarily trading reversals. For long term trend, next 7-10 years, I'm bullish on Gold/Silver...

{quote} GOLD imo not in so clear uptrend anymore...looks like exhaustion to me.. TL shows down trend and zig zag is making LHs and LLs...be careful with adding longs, imo, you should secure exsisting longs with SL just in case. {image}
Hi Fisher, thanks for the input. For me, gold is an investment/hedge. If it start falling hard, I will hedge with USD. However, I don't see any threat at all to uptrend longer-term.

For gold/silver in terms of direction, imo the daily chart is not reliable. I primarily look at weekly/monthly and enter at key levels and bullish patterns, on various time frames. Presently, it is a minor corrective move on the weekly chart, so my bullish bias remains. Plus the overall market fear still exists, which will always result in huge bullish spikes when least expected, if looking at the lower time frame technicals...

Anyway, just my view. We'll see what happens...

Gold in longer term is bullish but it haven`t broke bearish trendline from 1900 something. And i see that it has some unfinished business 1288 or even lower. Then maybe HH end of this month?

yea, anything is possible. But I don't over-think things. I look at trend on weekly/monthly. I look at HHs, and HLs. But with gold/silver, I also look at fundamentals a little more, that overall market fear. I don't see that going away any time soon... So, I keep looking for buys...

Weekly and Monthly so Lagging TF. Very Long Term TF.

Why not just Daily or H4 for Max TF?

I just like the reliability of the weekly/monthly. It is much more likely for trades to work out, just takes longer sometimes.

And I could just as easily point out my gold/silver winners this week, I remember visiting the gold thread, and many were saying they were shorting some bearish retrace, while I held my longs into some nice profits. So anyone trying to catch that minor retrace shorting, got stopped out, while I just held my position in line with overall trend.

On weekly/monthly we are in a correction, the trend is up, and it is much more relaxing for me to just hold my positions. No stress, just wait for lower prices to buy more, and worse case scenario, open some more USD positions to hedge...

The problem with Weekly/Monthly trading is You need to have well (if not big) capital to hold the floating loss. Off course depend on the risk size and more positions you added.

The problem with the hedge (short term hedge) You need to know (approximately) where is the bottom and the top of the range.
