Baruch.. now I'm really confused. You said Big Baruch was the first reversal after 7.

Asia was in UP trend mode until 7, so your first trade should have been a short. Not trying to look smug, just trying to clarify the supposed difference between Big Baruch and Big Ben for the readers of the thread.

I use euro to confirm cable - and the down-move in cable was not confirmed by euro. The next move before 8.00 was a follow-up by the the Asia uptrend - but it was a breakout, and confirmed by euro, so it was a real Big Baruch (and Big Ben) move.

PS. Do you think we can trade BB on US open?

Ok. Fair point.

Might be something in the US range break.... certainly Cable goes into lull mode after 11 some days.

Only taking a stab in the dark with 12 - 1.... anyone else reading this thread have a view ?

PS:- You still holding from earlier ?

Well, agree that things do go quiet mid morning - and things do have a tendency to pick up when the US comes in. However, not looked at this in any great detail Kaffee..............

LOL Zuke... I had to re-check my Caps position after your post.

Never ever trade the morning after !! ;)

Taking JohnnyT's advice i.e. no margin, in as soon as it hits the range trade it... it was a long at 7662 this morning.
 
ok, 2 points...

how do we

a) know what is the new move, as opposed to a dip/peak in the existing move

and

2) know where to enter on this new move..

Baruch, please be a darling and post some charts of the past few days so we know where you got on and off..

im sure it would clarify things somewhat...

if you are having trouble finding some cable charts, im sure i could lend you some..

Just to clarify - is that a breakout of the range set during the asian sesh? Is there a thread about it on here?
