There is a tipycal "holy graal" set up on USD/CAD daily. 1) Large lateral from June to September with double max. 2) Trend starts in Sept from 1,020 up to 1,07 3) Retracement (pull back) to mm 20. 4) ADX (14) > 30 going down after a max. higer probability now for a rebound up with possible target in the area of the precvious max 1.65-1.70 Stop either the min of the today bar for early position or mm 20 if the position is taken tomorrow after green bar. A confirmation (a filter for entrance is needed on a shorter timeframe, for example 1 h) Regards Massimo
nice call I got long wed afternoon at 591 got stopped out of 25% at 564 re bought on a stop at 595 this am so makes me long a full load at 592
did you take your profit? I'm still long from 592 man it's tempting to take that profit everytime it trades above 700, but that would make me too short usd
ah, I took my profit now I'm short again from 638 man, that was a grueling trade so many chances to get out at 700 ob
ib, opened at 1900 at anyrate I'm flat at 653 (7:23:53) I'm waiting for 8:00 need to call ib man, I'm dreading that service call They made me upgrade to a new TWS now my hot key that I use to enter a new postion reverts back to my predefined presets no biggie, just another aggravation when I get that set back up the way it use to work, I will go long USD.CAD otherwise, nice quick profit last night I deserve one, because that last trade lasted for weeks
oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the CAD was actually a loss but it was just one pair good night to be short aud and gbp bad night to be short usd.cad and usd.chf oh well, you win some and lose some size is everything
