    Bump.

    Quick short on the U/C on the break of 1.27...got in right at about 1.2695. Tight stop just above 1.27. Not calling a top, just playing the some of the retrace momentum.

  3. Good Lord what a move in e/j right after I went to sleep. Literally within 15 minutes of racking out this mofo takes off to high heavens!

    I caught about 75 pips a little while ago, but man what a move to miss!

    I stayed up from 6pm yesterday to 10am this morning for this thing and then missed it! LOL

    What luck!

    It's all good, let's see what happens tonight.

    Still looking long at some point, but if this thing goes short, I think it will be in a big big way.

  7. Hey man doing alright, this has been a wild month. Thanks for asking.

    I caught that huge selloff last week and that was really nice for the account, hopefully there will be a few more of them. I totally missed the huge rally today. LOL

    Good trading man, hope to see you around more often.

  9. Short eurjpy from 126.04

    stop - 127.05
    potential profit target - 121

    If I get out sooner than that I will post it. I may hold longer if price action ignores support. I also sometimes get out sooner if price says its done with the move.

  10. Hey trackstar, any reason you are going short with such a big target?

    I mentioned earlier that if this thing goes short I think it will be short in a huge way, but was just wondering what your thoughts were on taking a short right now.

    I am slightly biased long, but if this doesn't move up soon, I will be looking to go short as well. I don't really have much faith in these rallies right now.
