    DTP - Dynamic Time Projection is giving 3 high probability time targets for the end of this C wave as sometime between 0400 and 1700 GMT tomorrow - that ties in nicely for an ITD 9 top.

    Various price targets on the upside but we need to get subwaves waves 1 & 2 in first to give a more accurate target zone.

    Needless to say I'll be looking to get add ons after an ABC w2 pullback.

    That's me done posting for today - I'll be back on tomorrow.

    Sometimes I feel like I take up too much space with all my posts on this forum - apologies.

    Quick trade. But later open one more tiny position almost from 40. stop also tight, aiming some correction. But seems as Johns plan was more appropriate.

    What's great about this forum

    To all great contributors of this forum,

    The great thing about this forum is that whoever contribute will post a chart or a plan. Unlike other forums where people boost about their 'earnings' in a demo account or calling each other names.

    I don't mind reading the fantastic plans like John's which let us learn so keep on posting (if you guys don't mind).

    Thanks a billion!

    Regards

    Watching

    Waiting for next direction signal:

    Might become a good Short below 1.55 with Target to 1.5428 and 1.5137 in extension

    Reluctantly will take a Long if it breaks the cloud and closes above 1.5668

    Also, Chikou Span (light gray line) needs to confirm the direction ...

    I second that, the Home-run hitter is a wonder to experience. I can still remember John saying he was going to take an extended break. It almost broke my heart. Maybe I'm over sensitive because EW and delta is known for making beautiful music together but darn it, it's a necessity. Any case thx John.

    Back to business, looks like 200MA has contain price.

    A-Yoooooooooo
    Go ahead switch the style up' And if they hate then let them hate and watch the money pile up.'

    Early Uk Morning everyone

    Many thanks for all the kind words - it's good to know that my posts do actually help out and I'm not just cluttering up the forum.

    ITD 9 high is due tomorrow (Friday) - the minimum price requirement for that is 1 pip above Wednesdays high of 1.5687

    W2 : not sure how it's going to work out yet, we are in a C wave and should just be starting the 3rd of that anytime now - possible nice wolfe wave setup on the hourly (see below)

    I covered 1/3 near the highs, scalped some shorts and have just reloaded some longs now @ 1.5586 stops at 1.5507.

    Let's see what today brings - or tomorrow for those in the US.

    Assuming we've completed wave 2 of C then targets for wave 3 as below

    Edit : stops raised up to 1.5558 - just below what I'm assuming is the end of W2 - if it breaks below I'll just go in long again but from lower down

    New discovery

    It's amazing what you find out just by clicking on buttons

    I run 2 accounts - my main one with Saxo (I use a lot of FX options) and a small one with FXCM that I try stuff out on.

    Just discovered that if I bring up a marketscope chart it will show all my open and closed positions for the last day !! I never new that.

    Just for interest here are my trades on FXCM since this morning - and you can see where I've been loading up again on this W2 pullback
