    The trick is to wait the price meet ur limits, instead of one jumping in.. however scalps is a totally different scenario and is not everyone's cup of tea

    I am being very lucky today - my EUR/USD gain went to 50+ plus - took 50% of the table before the news. However I entered again after the news but this trade went sour so I was running a loss when we created the high. Luckily I manged to exit with a small gain. At the same time I went short EUR/JPY which delivered a quick 24.8 pips gain.

    n
    1. (Military / Firearms, Gunnery, Ordnance & Artillery) a small projecting lever that activates the firing mechanism of a firearm

    2. to fire or set in motion by or as by pulling a trigger
    [C17 tricker, from Dutch trekker, from trekken to pull; see trek]
    Well........ A touch of supp/resis usually first strike to be in to cash most at the earliest. leave the rest with stops tighten and so on and yes a prayer that I posisbly have got the rt supp.resis i'm buying or selling from.......
    In short TL plays... and a lot of luck...............

    IF I could I would ................

    heck all weird pairs make sense but for some reason I'm so reluctant to trade USDJPY.....
    with the silent intervention on it from the BOJ, impossible for me to trade this pair out.........

    Anyone here understands this pair and if so would like to get some tips on it...

    LOL Stryker, if you don't understand a pair do you really think someone else would. i'm with you, can't figure out this pair, got slaughtered too many times with Japan's surprise attacks, tiptoeing the Yen by trading eur/jpy instead.

    always wishing you only the best an old friend
    PEACE

    If those 2 spikes up are 1-2, 1-2, then EW 3 is going to be a doozy - R3 today could be possible unless it slams into R1 and consolidates given time of day. Then my longs would at last be paying off!

    Lol same here. This year only I lost about 9% of my capital trading this pair only. I promised myself never enter any position in USD/JPY again no matter how attractive the situation is )

    if gold find support between the hot spot trading zone that is 1541.71 and 1563.20 and you notice that for gold today's high and lows are exactly between these two hot spot trading zones

    and if gold give a surprise rally upward then there is a high probability that euro will follow it, keep in mind euro not always follows the gold but usually does
    watch closely for gold surprise rally1
    i will take 20% of the profit at 1580 to be safe in this trade

    When I've more time, I'll run a test, but not sure if I can get 12 years of EURUSD data, probably only daily data. IF, I've more time...
