Not much today that interested me at all..pretty tight trading ranges and nothing that grabbed me.

I am still in my EU.AUD trade..I averaged in a bit so I am down 100 pips or so..not bad.

looking at EU/$ monthly again if it doesnt close this month above 1.3870 it WILL crossand we should see another leg down...less than a cross per year of these lines and when they come the moves are monsters

I closed my NZD trade for a crappy 42 pip gain...had 100+ and got greedy but i still think it may sink here if it cant rally and close the month above 7150...we'll see what happens Sunday

Ive entered a shrt on EU/GBP...Matts trade here.....hes looking for 8840 to be stiff resis for awhile so i jumped in at 8832

You caught it as it broke that moving average, straight nose dive since.



If the lb.yen drops another 100 I will go long...

rick,

Watch the USM..the lower she goes,the lower the AU goes.

Sniffing a bounce on my EU.AU trade with the drop you are enjoying too.

The USM seems to have a ton of support..they took her down 110 or so and brought it back up halfway in no time.

No fear or selling pressure, none at all.

I'm out with another 100 pips for the week.

I am going to monitor this and if it closes bellow the 889 level will re-enter short.

Nice work..

I find it interesting how you can almost time these markets and if you have patience and some margin that the UP market/DOWN market trades keep paying.

Up markets= short USD pair, long risk trade

Down markets= reverse..long the USD and YEN, short the AUD and LB and EU

haha, now it is going to close below that level on the hour.

  

Looking at the supports it looks like the next logical target is the 8787 area,  I will wait and see if it will break this 8878 level that seems to be a resistance turned support on sun/mon of last week.

Overall you can see on a 4 hr chart how well these fibs are working there is a perfect M shaped pattern that has emerged over the past week or so,  which was a great indicator to sell into the (double top) created by a early surge on Monday.

I saw the double top indicator followed by the confirmation of the long dark candle for entry, there is really no reason (aside from my own timidness to be out of this trade) .

agreed,
 with enough margin there is real potential for some very nice steady gains. If you have the discipline.
I do not see why some of my friends that tout equities and etf's like they are the bible think that Forex is the Crack Cocaine of the markets.

These guys watch Cramer like he knows what he is talking about, when I say that he is in the bag of corporations that he touts, they say I am a crazy conspiracy theorist.

These guys literally talk about Cramer the way we talk about DMI, or ADX, or RSI. 

These guys think that MACD is the stock ticker for McDonalds.

buck,

I was early there for sure, the chart looked like it had solid support near those multi month lows, but it didnt hold..

That is interesting though, he likes a long EU.AU and a short EU.LB...a little wacky if you ask me.
