    1.3185 could be a potentially good resistance if big "if" they want to take out 1.3156
    good luck and use leverage wisely i currently using leverage 1:3 because atr support already met and if atr support broken then alot of volatility expected specially to the down side be very careful!

If anyone is using it to help them trade, let me know. I know it is not perfect on its own but it would be nice to have someone to talk to!!!!!!

    Anyhow, closed out half at 1.3210 and hope to get some more on if we get back up near the exit point. The other half is targeting 1.3130 at present whcih is the outer perimeter of my 2 day 'inner' range band and where the 240min bands seem to be heading.

    Catch up tomorrow.
    I am out at 1.3168 - I managed to add back on again nearer the daily pivot, so I am happy to go early. The 240min chart shows how important that 1.3161 line is and I would rather have another go at it from nearer 1.3240. We are only at MyWave 5 on the short term chart, so I am out early here but as we keep on saying, money banked!!!

    Legends on the charts explain the indicators - nothing hidden, all there to see.

    EUR/USD May 2 - 2012


    EUR/USD is trading lower this morning on weak euro PMI indices and is now trading under 1.32 which leaves the short bias neutral. One could say that we are trapped in a range where 1.3150 acts as support and 1.3285 is resistance. Given this we can expect a bounce to 1.3230.
    A breakout below 1.3150 would take price to 1.31 and if this happens we leave the range and the price trend turns bearish. If this happens we can expect a decline to 1.3050 over the next trading sessions.

    Hi, CW1

    Good to hear that you found a way that works so well for you. For those of us that were not here those "many years ago" when you posted 10 X 10, would you mind posting it again? I think people seem rather open-minded here and now.

    Thanks

    Sure of course and thanks you for your comments.
    Here goes...

    10 x 10 = 10 seperate trades through out the day for 10 pips target...result =100 pips

    I now use this for ftse, cac, dax, gold and eu/usd and gu.

    the 10 x 10 strategy can bank equally 100 pips if you double the trade and reduce the pips to 5 pips tgt. many ways can give many gains.

    for those new to the game its the pips that counts becuase if you can achieve consistency in pips then of course this means you will be consistently profitable

    EURUSD

    Just a nibble long - 1/5th of max back to daily pivot.

    Return journey to the gold 2 day Hull median is normal play action. It is gold because the 2 day trend is still up, although the red 240min average is now defo downhill for the moment. In order for that gold Hull to turn pink for down too, is going to need some coaxing. Might not be now but we are almost at the outer range of the 240 min range band (pink lines) and we may just have a very simple 5 EW waves here for the first wave down from yesterday's high.

    Taking a punt for fun given the state of those shorter term moms at the bottom - these cover up to 2hrs in time frame.

    ok good but if 10x10=10 resulted all in minus then it would be -100 pips for the day
    lol just kidding sir!
