    Pip and Run Trading Results: 8 Wins out of 10 Trades for +40.2 Pips!

    Pip and Run Trading Results: 8 Wins out of 10 Trades for +40.2 Pips!
    EUR/USD , GBP/JPY and GBP/USD were are big winners. My first trade shorting the the Euro limited out in 1 minute!

    Other trades were moving in my favor but were giving back initial gains, so I closed them all out for small gains or small losses.

    GBP/USD SSI Supports Your Trade Idea!

    Hello Lovelyforex! I was just looking at DailyFX Plus Speculative Sentiment Index(SSI) and it confirms your trade idea. SSI says that 71% of all GBP/USD traders are short. With so many traders short the upside seems a lot more likely.

    What are your thoughts?

    Testing SSI out on this

    I noticed yesterday that SSI pointed to traders being short, so I have put in a long position this morning based on slow stochastics. I'm testing this for now, so here's to hoping it works out ;-)

    400 PIP 1:1 Risk reward on GBP/USD

    Good day Gregg.

    I posted this in my journal earlier today. http://forexforums.dailyfx.com/my-fo...tml#post941076

    G/U appears to be headed to the 1.61 area. I would place a stop around the 1.5270 area.
    This is based on the 4H chart.

    Edit: At the time of the original posting the price was +-1.5680.

    Hello Traders! Despite a weak US stock market open on weaker Chinese export data, Cable decided to rally as bargain hunters stepped in to buy risk.

    FXTerri, you were testing out SSI. Let us know how that trade went as more retail traders were shorting GBP/USD. This set up a nice short squeeze rally.
