shane...

yes... GBP is a good long also... broken out of the tunnel and stabilized above the tunnel... as long as it doesn't close back below the upper line.. it's headed higher... will likely test 6050/6100 level... gl

Ashraf's analysis in USD thread is imo best can do at the moment. It is indeed a major factor
that PBOC sounded more dovish than expected , while imo Moody's did not say anything about a close downgrade of US debt. The currency strengths have changed exactly at FOMC statement
EUR down USD up , cross. AUD CAD unchanged JPY down. I don't think there will be big changes
triggered from US side but from Ezone cannot be excluded. Nothing changed in terms of CDS on bonds, only Gbunds CDS went higher. It is now, for the first time ever, cheaper to insure corporate bonds than German bunds and ( very bad) municipal bonds against default in Germany. I don't consider that long term positive for EUR and that could be the reason for EURCHF all time low.

DaveO...

opportunities will always exist..
i always try to confirm my strategy and entry level... this way you may miss some good opportunities but will dfinitely lessen your loss... (my winning percentage would be over 90% over the past year...)
if i'm very confident about certain move.. would go in with my entry without confirmation.. but this is done very rarely...
money management, trading strategy based on your studies(whether it be technical, fundamental, or both), a little bit less of greed, and PATIENCE PATIENCE PATIENCE would go a long way... :)

Subway, I'm flat awaiting next op.

Shane, I think you play a good strategy. I most often play 3 units and tp at what I consider to be logical levels. Taking some off quickly as a hedge against trade going bad looks after your psychological bank.

@ignore yup u are right i wasnt feeling confidant about the euro direction however contrary to this i was pretty sure that it wont hit 1.3460 yesterday so i went short, the fact is that no one out of us can predict the markets so i stopped doing that now i just see what the market is doing and go along in the flow , my 2nd target is 1.3180 for now . lets see but i am pretty sure that my break even will be taken out and actually it requires a lot of discipline to see ur breakeven to be taken out and the prices fall after that like a water fall. It tries to seduce me though but i am happy with peanuts on regular basis and a whole cake once in a blue moon.

break above 3450 level is a clear signal it has taken a direction to go north...
current downmove would be considered a correction until 3160 level is broken...
first main support comes in around 3320(resistance turned support)... only clear break and close below that level would see deeper correction...
but my personal expectation is for 3300/20 level to hold and move higher from that level...
upside target still remains 3690/3720... where i expect next big leg lower to 2750/2800 level...
