Against a strong usd. You think UJ will go as low as 114.xx. weekly chart has resistance at 121.xx

Buy on dips with strong demand zones is what i am doing but my tp is usually 40-50 pips. I'll confess it is scary buying at these levels as the pair is in on direction since 100.xx

I see, mine is hourly setup. Ej, gj, aj, found some tempo. Rs. 225 also coming into larger R and gold coming into S 1118 w/ missing 1308, I'm preferring to be on the short side of #usdjpy. I'll take setups with SLs.

Morning Edy,, Did you see the H4 setup on EA,,i could not pass it up with a small sell right at 4333, are you still waiting for higher ? Also I'm short UJ from 118.05 , with USD Index and Nike225 and DOW all at high levels but my TP is 116.5 for the pull back. if the speed of the retrace is fast I will trail stop before it if it goes thru my TP zone.

So far so good, if it breaks 118.36 then next stop could be 118.70. Hope it doesnt get to that. Read somewhere that if uj tanked then it could see 110.90

I'm waiting for higher to short EA, RR wise 1.45xx looks better for me (#euraud). UJ now up +20ish if anyone in can move stops to 118.25 and babysit it. For equities we may see some pullbacks as we are in this year's last two weeks.

I've been riding GBPUSD since 2760 at the beginning of December - scaling in and out, made some and lost not quite so much - so all in all a decent trade. Currently looking for it to break 2310 and stay below for my ultimate, pre-Xmas, target of 2195. Not sure it'll make it though . . .

{quote} . so in the short term, i will take a long 1.0334+.. with a tight stop.. 1.0330 ish.. to target 1.108.. my pending entry may not get triggered,, 1.108 before 1.0334 is my thought. willing to lose 6 to make 700+
not in eu yet. Brent did the 56.xx oil may be topping before deep down toward 14.xx

I got a very small pending at 1.034 stop at 325 to try and catch a bounce. Nothing serious since as you said it's counter fundi and obviously counter trend.
Also bought a few cheap BNO puts out of curiosity about a brent top at 56ish. New to options strategy and learned recently how that one (buying puts,calls) doesn't usually end too rosy but I'm in it already so it is what it is, and no farms bet either way.
Seems like oil has two (at least) elements to keep an eye on in addition to the normal ones. One being expectations of further conflict in the world escalating or not, and another being that prices north of 50 are, at least for now, held up by promises that may or may not be broken.

0334 to me is too close. 0334 would be the target. so my entry would be above the target for norm bounce before. once 0334 was hit norm would be less likely. this is just a small little setup for 1.1087. in the nutshell 1087 b4 0334. i wanted to be long as close as possible to 0334, but above 0334. this would have kept my risk to -0334 and reward 1087 r more if it played out. 034x looks ok with me. i dont mind throwing a few away there. like anything else, being so tight may cause me to miss the trade.

Good, 20 is 20. I see you post M1/M5 charts well 20+- is normal I guess.
