  2. gbp/usd: trying to add to my 1 lot of long @ 1.4670. currently price is 1.5260. have moved stop to close -ATR = 1.4870.
    locking in 200 pips.
    waiting for pullback to enter but there may be none. not going to chase it.
    feel very sure it will hit new highs tonight after NFP through 5373.
    will add to long if i can around @ 5150 or thereabouts.
    good luck tongiht everyone.

  3. GBP/USD. feel it could go to 1.5550 tonight. Very impulsive waves formed. consolation of prices at higher and higher levels.

    Should temporarily stop circa @ 5550 and pullback on its way to 1.5700. stop set at around 4870
    pyramid trade order at 5150 but feel sure it was too late to be collected. anyway we will see.

    Hello Ladies! :D

    I hope everyone had a good holiday :)

    I see the market is still as 'accommodating' as ever for a scalper, 42 trades yesterday for 228 pips (41 wins and 1 b/even), and 29 trades today for 210 pips all wins!

    Oanda are being great lately especially over NFP today, instant fills and no slippage, wow!

    I have a feeling 2009 will be a very good year for all of us!

    Closed at 1.9255, plus 93, won't be back till later today.

    Update-for the week

  8. USDCAD

    Did some scalping as this thing ripped down turning some of my shorts profitable.

    These remain, all shorts
    @ 1.1899
    @ 1.1892
    @ 1.1900
    @ 1.1885

    Stop @ 1.1975
    Profit @ 1.1700 (if I choose to hold for a few days)

    I'm considering holding them through the weekend. Do any of you hold through the weekend? If so and you feel like offering input, please go to the post right before this and check out the chart and offer how you would trade it.

  9. Further discussion on USDCAD....

    which by now I'm guessing A-nobody trades on this thread or B-don't feel like responding so this will be the last post on this particular setup (or lack thereof).
