    Oh, Good Day Traders,

    Time to start hanging some nets as my target stopped closed at 1.32 for a gain of 61 pips.

    There may be a little life left here but I'll stay side-lined seeing that it's TGIF. The SEK and USDOLLAR are trending down and topside ICH was tagged and ICH weather approaches.

    and yes i have trailed my stops up to just under 1.3140, just for any thing unexpected happen, stops are not meant to be taken out or hunted down stops are for unexpected price shocks and save the equity, stops must not be taken out, if taken out with out price shocks or before reaching target prices then stops are not well placed or TP is not correct

    thank you!

    that's interesting, "stops must not be taken out before reaching TP". i like to place stops where i think the market tells me that i'm wrong, anyway good luck. i'm short from 3190 and my stop is 3217

    if you read my post slowly you will get my answer about stops and target prices and yes as a real traders we are wrong a number of times, because you can not be 100% sure, this business is speculative business and we trade "risk"

    thank you!

    I do like my sleep and try and get it during the normal local time frame. Team planning is however beneficial as the more info on the table the better. But I like placing orders and target stops as I don't chase pips, life is just too short.

    At R1, took short scalp profits.

    The minimum target before any upside reversal is the 30min Boll20 midline around 1.3163. That means a little more downside is to be expected.

    Will probably do more shorting around the 5min Boll20 midline around 1.3190.

    Daily SSI Report for 4/20/2012

    Daily SSI Report for 4/20/2012 - Good Morning Traders! Happy Friday to you. I hope you are awash in Pips!

    Looks like Euro bears have gotten themselves trapped. But they are still shorting the Euro. SSI points to more gains for the Euro. The G20 may surprise with some sort of solution to the sovereign debt crisis.

    Look at the over 6:1 Ratio of Short versus longs on the GBP/USD!!

    Happy Trading!

    Greg

    EURUSD - The ratio of long to short positions in the EURUSD stands at -1.67 as nearly 63% of traders are short. Yesterday, the ratio was at -1.39 as 58% of open positions were short. In detail, long positions are 6.8% lower than yesterday and 16.1% weaker since last week. Short positions are 11.8% higher than yesterday and 40.9% stronger since last week. Open interest is 4.0% stronger than yesterday and 4.4% above its monthly average. The SSI is a contrarian indicator and signals more EURUSD gains.
