Thats one of the biggest myths, confusion and actual huge handicaps in retail trading. They only see markets...Ignored

Disliked...we are getting first confirmation from the US right before the open. All in expectations so far business tax at 15% details coming in a few. This is a dramatic tax cut and it will be extremely hard to explain the details on how to achieve it without bankrupting the US. Devils in the details and DT will need more than magic and a tweet to explain this one. Very positive short term reaction is expected on the headline but we already have digested 90% of the DT move since November, however if this come with a technical and legal flop in the details...Ignored
Disliked@goose, if you check the trump candle mofu you and I have been watching, we bounced off he upper mofu. I took a short here for (hopefully) gap closure and/or to mitigate my DD. Looking to close with either a scratch midterm, or a bit of profit @ the closure of the gap with a bit running for our previous 1.05xx target. No longer interested in trading for the 1.03 handle or below. Trump is throwing too many wrenches in the dollar game plan for my taste.Ignored

Disliked{quote} I did notice that bounce. Had the same thought about a short entry there when i saw it. At the moment after making a full on rookie mistake or two, I am flat and "regrouping" (I hate that word) and trying on a different perspective with TA. Demo for now cuz it's fresh to me. Just like I was just blabbing on about going into mofu half-cocked some years ago, I've been going into PA the same way recently. I'm looking for a mid term short entry but probably won't trade it fo' reals because I need a reset so to speak. GL with that plan. It looks...Ignored
