Thanks for the words, Zuke. Made a few pips on the JPY but nothing exciting. Thought we were in for a decent move today.

[Priceman]

morning DC you still in or waiting for the news later ?

 

[dc2000]

Im back in this morning, didnt jump off yesterday ( stoopid I know) but left a limit order in over night to take profit


and out again will now wait for news

target high still the same target

 

[Priceman]

Ok I'm in long at 8869, target 8930

 

[Priceman]

Hello anyone out there.... echo echo.... Oh well I can amuse myself here then

Long too at more or less same level, hope to see 8920+ and obviously would like to see the 8930 resistance break but most of all of would like to not get stopped out!

 

[coolTrader]

we are here. out of my short and standing aside. That was a good one.

 

[coolTrader]

Still have American ppi (1:30) and tics data @ 3(uk time)

 

[Priceman]

Yeh not convinced by my long yet either... may come out and watch at breakeven if I can get there...

 

[hornblower]

Hello anyone out there.... echo echo.... Oh well I can amuse myself here then

hi Priceman

we are all around
I do not post all the time

 

[dc2000]

still here just jumping in and out

wouldnt mind another look at the 8855 area but dont want an 8840 that would see me jump off at B/E

 

[Priceman]

I just came out too... up 65 so far scalping away

long was bouncing off today's pivot, I want to see a candle close above that level first...

while there's more news to come later I think I may just scalp the day

 

[dc2000]

yup scalping seems the most profitable in recent days

 

[coolTrader]

This is a big gap from the cpi news that has not been mounted yet so. I will be watching to see if it will make 1.8832 before 18783. though I am mindful of data coming out later.

 

[wasp]

Messy day but favour we will end the day higher, up above 925... but then again I'm probably completely wrong, but thats why I use indicators!
