My money is on disappointing figures, last months were too good to be true.
I'm short cable from 1.7773 but have tightened stops drastically.

 

[FetteredChinos]

close shave, mate.

hope it wasnt a full body wax

 

[FetteredChinos]

I cant watch!

 

[FetteredChinos]

sheesh kebab!!!

...me liking thiiis!

 

[FetteredChinos]

time to short this bugger i think

 

[FetteredChinos]

come to papa. short @ £16pp from 1.7636

have a look at this chart. hit overhead resistance, and downtrend is back.

 

[FetteredChinos]

would have got in circa 1.7650 but capitalspreads kept declining my price. instead of requoting, you then have to go through the whole order process again. time consuming

i might send them an email poinitng this out lol

Eeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! :cheesy:

Shorted:

EUR @ 1.1852 SL @ breakeven
Cable @ 1.7645 SL @ breakeven.

The market moved back down so quickly that I was able to move stop losses to breakeven within minutes.

Just come back from lunch - what did I miss there's a HUGE spike on the EUR/$

Still long from 1.815 but that looks like a nice profit missed

 

[FetteredChinos]

good trading goobs... what platform do you use??


am thinking of closing short now. running out of steam.

[FetteredChinos]

hmm, RSI hinting at a drop.. might actually add to short here.

tight-ish stops though

 

[FetteredChinos]

double top at the spike extreme?

 

[FetteredChinos]

guess not lol!

 

[Volatile]

Just too tempting - thats me out for +75 at 1.890

 

[FetteredChinos]

now this has to be a short. rejection of 1.7700.
20 pt stops.

Never miss US news at 13:30

If you are serious about trading then you need to be at your desk at 13:30 on the days that US economic news is published.

This is always a very volatile time.

OK that's what I missed - still relatively new at this thanks JT

not short just yet I've forced myself to wait for my sys' signals

 

[FetteredChinos]

Euro stops in a 1.1860 to lock in +25

falling at the moment.

short on cable from 1.7691

bloody hard to get a price at the moment. she's a zipping!
