today ......well London bounced the usd north so I have to be careful ........in truth I kept it light ................really the safe trades on usd are getting outside those breach lines

like yesterdays range where I got bitten ............

currencies are like kids ..........let them tell you what they want to do ..........don't force them..........it will always end in tears !!

morning all .........

interesting morning so far ............Yen has been pumping overnight ....nothing close to it

Cad and ausssies taken most flak ...........

at this moment the usd has hit support levels so I will try to buy it ........or indeed resell it if it now bails south through this area

my 2 favourite jpy pairs were average from the rises above .....clearly euro and usd both had bull intensions as well

selling aussies , CHF or even the gbp at times were better plays

what a cracking day today in the fx markets ......jees I wish I could have been in the game more !!


usd is moving around like a trooper...........look at the swings bull and bear so far ..........plenty of room for scalps plus extensions ............everyone should be making pips as the market is very forgiving today

Europeans have BOMBED in U.S. session..........looks at these babies !

yen has put over 150 bull pips on in the day .....its pretty neutral for us session but watch out ..............

Rare for a currency to go bull 3 for 3 in a day re the 3 sessions but yen is on track** .....still bet on fades though

N

** useful rule of thumb for me trading us session ..............Asian and London currency directions always give me a feel for what to do in the US session and what not to do.............hence i'm not holding my breath for a bull yen and if anything I would be looking to fade it (as traders take profits across its pairs).......

as mentioned the yen is 2 for 2 re bull sessions today Asian / London .............to go bull in the us session as well is pretty good going

hence if I was trading it would be up on my board as a fade .......traders will take profits on that dude I suspect as session unfolds........theres a lot of profits on table for traders having got in during Asian session especially ....

so beware ........see the uj has started fightback already

see how the yen failed to get 3 from 3 sessions yesterday ? (y)

other pairs were better in taking advantage of that

fuzzy logic indeed ..........but its another edge in the battle to make money

and every little counts :smart:
