  1. Hello traders,

    Got into a short on Usd-Cad...missed the big run earlier. Entry could have been a bit later...actual entry candle shown by red arrow. Price has since come back to test the L-MLH area. Also, Bernanke to speak in about 1 hour, so the market may be idling.

    Someone emailed or PM'd and asked if I would give some explanation of the "why" behind the entry...

    On this one, price was in a downtrend. It gave a bounce and seemed to be hitting resistance at the red L-MLHs...(almost traded the bounce, but thought I would look for an entry to go down).

    Not alot going on...up around 2 pips. Will see if it continues down as there is a support area on the H4 where the bounce began.

    Chart shows where price is now..up about 6 pips...not expecting too much unless the H4 support gives way.

  2. Got long on Eur-Gbp and managed to send a signal. Came to within 4 pips of my anticipated entry price. Now this is where it gets tricky...price is at the ML....would it blow past or should I bank my profits?

    Hmm.... thinking it may go higher.

    Decisions...will keep an objective eye.

  4. Hello all,

    Hope everyone is doing well. Continue to be busy...got a quick trade in toward the end of the week.

    The weekly wrap up charts are now posted on the blog Pitchfork Goldmine. The Xau-Usd chart had a giveaway of a trade. Hope some of you are finding trades from those set-ups.

    All the best this week. Happy July 4th to US traders.

  5. Hello trades,

    Got into Eur-Usd yesterday....below is the chart. A Schiff fork actually would have had price at the Ml. Price continued to slide down the U-MLH like it was glued to it before going lower.

    Take care,

    FX4

    P.S. Weekly wrap-ups should be up by midnight on Saturday.

  6. Hi again,

    Here is a trade I got into this morning...long EU. If price cannot clear SH, would be considering taking the exit.

  8. Okay Traders,

    Hope you had a great week. The weekly wrap-up of the pairs I follow on the blog are now posted.

    Will try to get in on some of the trading action this week. Let's hope the market doesn't get too wild with all the happenings with The Dollar lately.

  10. Well I was able to place some trades today, but got into some entanglements on Nzd-Usd. Managed to actively manage the risk and come out ahead...didn't lose any $$$. Made a few on EurUsd...late entries. Should have been a couple of hundred pips for the day, but I am grateful that I lost nothing, but actually made some.

    Still not quite in the flow but will keep on.

    Hope you all did well today.

    P.S. Recently completed some important travels. Trying to get back in the flow now.
