Just read about sovereign offers at 1.3280/1.33 here url ...if it doesn't break above it soon, we'll probably see the pair going for 1.32. I went short now near 1.3270 and looking to add at 1.3290 with stop around 1.3310. Though, I don't know how ...

Order Flow - Achieving the mindset

You're quite antruistic and modest. I'd travel the world for a few years and make sure I visit as many places as possible during my lifetime. Not just the common locations, but also "strange" places. Travel's the #1 for me and what makes life ...
