{quote} Almost took a hit last hour on GBPJPY but just stayed in the trade as it made a new low and happily bagged +5 (then hit my trailing for +4). Back in again this hour which has proved a little more straight forward! {image}

And lift off, all systems go. +29, makes amends for last hour hiccup.

If it double-bottoms and stays that way, it would be a good and cautious entry north...

Well I won't say anything. Every dog has its day.

That's a wrap for me. A long grueling day. Two hours.

Nicely done. Yes going for a walk now as has been a good morning....the GJ rocket was a nice bonus! Will be back to track the Lem 'dead zone' later.

Well, US30 has provided a nice Tail to the earlier Top. Didn't trade this as had to sleep and couldn't run the inevitable false-starts needed before it got going here, so fyi only.

Over on the 500, sure enough, the US Open provides the oomph to give the reverse back north. Again, some short-term discomfort repaid nicely if one had played the earlier false-starts.

Kind of inevitable, as GU doesn't travel north very often these days and with little conviction when it does.

Seems like I have been in this NZD trade all morning. Actually I was, got in six hours ago and finally passed +5 and locked it up.

Morning all. 09:00 GMT hr gave good setups for the GBP pairs (USD/CAD/JPY/NZD/AUD/CHF). Currently in GBP/USD and taken my +5 (again my entry was off a pip as I was also watching A/U )

Price spiked down and got my +1 sl. All good though as the +5 is my key and anything after is a welcome bonus. (Even the +1's soon start to add up).

Edit: All the GBP pairs except CHF would have made at least their +5 (AUD/JPY/CAD/NZD would have also hit the +10 and more). If you had taken GBPCHF then you would now be having to manage that trade as it has made a new low.

Always, always, always, be careful of taking anything that contains anything to do with CHF. SNB plays silly buggers with it all day long. I rarely touch it any more.

I took the AU short. Locked +5 looks like a ranging market on this pair for right now, which can be good.
