FX-2007: Feb19th > Feb 23th

[trendie]

New week, new pips.

Last week closed essentially flat, with weekly range of around 240 pips.

This week may start off slowly, what with Presidents Day and all.
the eco-news calendar seems rather small, so if any other news needs considering, please post.

Good trading.

Hi chaps,

I'm looking for long cable opps maybe if last weeks low isn't taken out. Friday's action on the hourly chart shows that it doesn't like being below 9500. I will wait to see what happens on Monday before entering. If it does fall past 9460 then I want to see it stay down there before entering a short position. 9560ish will be the first resistance level perhaps.

Would like to see a nice smooth move in either direction so I can stick with set and leave!

Good trading to all.

hi guys
just setting up for Monday
Elliot wave wise

[dc2000]

just out by 2 pips but close enough

wouldn't mind printing an early low 505 for now but want a better price for the big bucks run is 460 toooo obvious for a retail stop level

morning all

I missed 3 entries today. I wasnt there to trade them, so nothing to say really. I didnt even bother opening my platform until 9:00, thinking that with the US holiday, the market would be rather quiet. I will stay sidelined today for that reason.

I am posting the chart for anybody interested in pinbar type of setups. This setup could have been good for at least 20 pips, and at best for 40...until now , depending on entry (first entry 45, second 40, third at 29).


till tomorrow.

Morning all,
I've just noticed the sudden drop - fortunately in my favour as I was on the verge of being stopped out. Anyone know any reason for this? There's no scheduled news that I know of.

 

[dc2000]

getting close to profit time now

Lovely breakout. Short from 526,509 and 495.... for those thinking it might be quiet day, Thanksgiving had some pretty big moves

I'd be happy to stick in the low 94s until this afternoon for us breakout traders and then DC can have his bounce......
