My Intraday Outlook.
(ahead London)
EUR/USD slightly bullish. Might bounce more on 1.0600.
Global tradrs might go for a mini-range until Trump.
The Trump event is by far the most important one. Words out about Healthcare, tax reform, the Syrian crisis, and North Korea will bust UK and Canadian news in the Calendar today.
My scalp: Bought 1.0610, target 1.0632
Have a good trading day/week you all!

Good morning 
AUD/USD & NZD/USD:
- I just closed my yesterday shorts for tiny profits.
I wanted to see a lower low, but they didn't perform. Lower price keeps getting rejected and we couldn't build enough momentum.
The USD Index sits on support and is backed by it's EMA20, sitting at value price. News will trigger a move, to which side I do not know.
Also, it's a slow week and I rather scale down and close out the non-performers before easter.
So, if you followed my yesterday shorts on these two, I recommend you close them, they don't perform.
EUR/JPY
- my strongest performer
It pulled straight to weekly resistance and closed. 100 pips in one day, what a move.
I did scle down to book some profit but stayed in the market with the remaining small size position.
Now I wait for a pullback (retracement) to get another short signal and eventualy scale in again.
I want to say thanks to our friend maah who called this yesterday morning two hours before I took my entry. Great call!
So for today:
I have my eyes on the Yen pairs.
(I love Japan, what can I do, Japan is beautiful, while US is a mess and EU is asleep)
But I don't plan on building more positions before easter.
I had a very green week so far with USD/JPY and EUR/JPY being strong performers for 282 pips booked.
Time to get me some sunlight.
Enjoy life, and stay green

a look on the Kiwi
I still expect a strong drop Short on the NZD/USD, but I can't seem to get an entry.
Timing on this seems impossible, I am waiting for a retracement to try another short but it just doesn't behave.
It hurts me to not be in the market, because I really expect a very strong drop on the weekly that could potentialy net 500 pips+ in the long run.
It either turns around and pulls up (bullish outbreak),
or it falls into oblivion.... (prefered, because cheaper on the swaps
)
I'll ride it either way, if it just gives me some entry, dammit...
Behave Kiwi, behave!
Setup on Daily... drawing forks....
and the H4 chart...

OK, I know the Kiwi wont let me sleep if I don't trade this.
I did close the short this morning because no performance yesterday.
Now...
I can't sit in the sun and relax...
I have to take this trade. I can't help myself, I do have a feeling....
I must take a punt here, it's too juicy to not try it.
If it eats my stops, I reposition. I do have a feeling
Trade on the Weekly:
@MYSELF: do not touch this ever again, let the market do it's job! At least go for the 150 pips (161.8% extention)

{quote} Stay Green, Raph!
I did scale into the Kiwi
3 Shorts:
- 1 Lot intraday (target A-Line , and we will break it, it's exactly on the Intraday S3)
- 0.50 Lot Daily (target 121 extention),
- 1 Lot Weekly (target: where the Baalrog lives....)
Very low risk, small positions, very high potential reward. I must take this.
Now I can sit in the sun and be in peace and let the market do the work, either stop me out or take the Mulah
oh, and I'm still in the EJ, just scaled in another position

Lurkers!
Don't copy me trades.
They are all breakout trades that most often backfire
And I am sicko, a freak and a weirdo. I'm this type of kid who kept touching the hot plate.
Seriously, don't copy me trades.
Stay safe, you have been warned

{quote} Scalping which such huge targets on your review (scalping for beginners will be good) at my own risk of course lol
These trades are NOT intraday trades.
For scalping you need much better entries than the ones I take on these trades.
These trades are not for intraday trading. Give them time to develop.
The only trades that I close or scale down on an intraday level are the non-performers.
So far, they all perform. Slow, but steady. Perfectly normal that they move down 80 pips, up 50, down 20, up 30, down 100.... as long as they fit in the overall picture and perform into the right direction, I don't touch them.
These are NOT scalping trades. Don't limit your upside bro, good things need time
The way I see it is, I made my top down analysis, calculated my entries, the Stops, the potential profits, the potential losses, the overall risk exposure, the size... then I placed my trades.
I have done my work, that's it. Nothing more to do. I do check in from time to time and take a look but I don't change anything. I give them at least one day to show some performance. Then I either trail Stops, close non-performers, or leave them alone. But for today, my work is done.
Let the markets do the work now.
You need to put trust in your own skills. It's a mental game, that's the hardest part.
Job done -> sit on hands, do nothing. The trades either lose or win, there is nothing more to do.
Have confidence, have faith, have heart, be bold.
Never doubt yourself, never question yourself, never listen to the naysayers.
Trust yourself.
You need the Lion attitude
