Islander replied Feb 22, 2008The 5m cable gave a buy off its 50% retrace and UJ gave a sell of its 5m DZ - lets hope that cable's buy was a short term signal caused by the Euro and the UJ now makes new lows under 107.16....lol, its Freaky Friday again!

Islander replied Feb 22, 2008Off the 5min I'm seeing an equal high in UJ - just under its 15m DZ and 2 lower highs in cable. These have made 2 lower highs in GJ. GJ now on its Daily Pivot at 210.84 - I'd like to see a bounce before trying a small sell....

Islander replied Feb 21, 2008Thank you, I was suspicious when it past the 107.28 high, but couldnt make it to the 108.36 high. The unexpectedly poor Philly Fed data sent UJ down hard - without me onboard. Edit: Now to wait for the retrace.

Islander replied Feb 21, 2008When News Trading was still viable - 6+ months ago - we would fib the start of the news candle to the spike H / L and then look to get in on the retrace. I was too slow to put up this fib as I was on the 5m chart - but just look at that ...

Islander replied Feb 20, 200815m charts — The best move today was the sell in cable from an earlier chart - the magenta line was the trade. Now price is back in the DZ. After the sell off in the early Asian Session GJ has been chopping around in a 120 pip range - lets ...

Islander replied Feb 20, 2008Hi Jared - you may have seen the thread that I created to move trading off Skunny's thread and focus on fibs with GJ, UJ and cable. Good luck with your's - its hard work and can interfere with your own trading at busy times! Islander

Islander replied Feb 20, 2008Agreed - remember the MPC of the BOE's minutes are due at 9:30 GMT - 55mins time. These are important so expect cable to be choppy until then. I'm in "hit and run" mode taking 30 or 40 pips as soon as I can and probably wont trade again until after ...
