I suppose John Harday didn't knew that Issing from ECB - a rate hike hawk - was going to make a speech this morning. As I always say: It's the news, which makes the big moves... :cheesy:

How ? Big Ben in profit by a possible 110+ (maybe more) this morning.

Yes, Big Ben was very good this morning. Wait for the breakout between 7.00 and 8.00 in the morning - and follow the flow... :cheesy:

Interesting. Neither did FXCM.. as it wasn't on their calendar of events. Can only really trade the news if you know it's coming eh ?

Which is why I just follow the price.
 
morning all.. think i'll join you guys today, if you dont mind...

have been long since yesterday evening on the trendline break, and it looks like it is just about to head south as it is sitting on the trendline and not bouncing as yet..

will let you know when i reverse..

It's OK just to follow the price - but if you also know why the move is happening, you don't jump on fake moves, stophunting spikes etc. :LOL:

Yes, lining up a short. Might give it a slap at 460. Got SAR at 420 currently.

Scaled out 5 lots @ 42 for +38 pips :LOL: Stop moved to flat. Remaining 5 lots will run until stop hit or target 2 hit (where I will scale out another 3 lots)


Happy days are here again!! still have 2 lots running from my 7312 long which I did post live. Moved stop on 1 lot to 7412 to lock in 100 pips. Will let the last lot run and run until 7312 break even or a 7550.
