9095 is good place to short Eur/Gbp imo
greeting leovirgo

 

[Black Swan]

I wasn't ready to short at that time. I'd been long from 9060 to 9130-150, live call here.

My strategy is not explained here. This thread is just for live calls/set ups. You are welcome to do so, if you want to...

Moments ago, EG target hit at 9058 (60pips).

No thanks bud, your thread, I'll just observe if that's ok with you. I've thought long and hard re. doing a journal but decided against it, I don't want the added pressure/extra responsibility of having to post trades... total respect to those who do though, including your good self. Always willing/excited to see how others trade...

Short EG @9056, only 50% size. Stops 20/30, looking for 30pips max.

 

[leovirgo]

Just missed my target and out with a few pips. Max run up 26pips.

Short EG @9056, only 50% size. Stops 20/30, looking for 30pips max.

I must say EG was very naughty. Re-entry order was given just before the fall, but didn't get filled... one of the annoying things about DMA. [I wish I was using spreadbetting account on this very occasion!!]

 

[leovirgo]

I'll be looking at my crystal ball today.. let's what we have for November.. I will post some set up tomorrow and over the weekend

Wanted to go long GJ/GU/UJ but don't like the way they are now.

Long EU 1.4833 Stop 30pips, Target 60pips

 

[leovirgo]

Chart for EU trade in above post. There are two possibilities for 1 Day ATR move. I am going for box 1, therefore took a long trade above MDM(white line). Let's see..

 

[leovirgo]

Reversed position at 4814, going for box 2. lol..

 

[leovirgo]

50% taken at 4765(+49pips).

 

[leovirgo]

End of the week last trades

Remaining 50% out at 4755 (+59pips)- that brings total pips to (49+ 59)=108/2 = +54 for the whole position.

Switching box 2 from box 1 was proven right! (lost 20pips)

[chart attached with approximate entries/exits]

Gross pips for the week is, therefore, +380pips. Adjusted pips is something like +200.

Gotta call it a week!

Cable

GBPUSD has lowering mean lines for the last three consecutive months. If 1.6180 can't hold, I will be selling agressively. If it holds, then a buy program can be launched.

Monday Nov 2
Still looking for a nice entry. Resting Sell limit order for USDJPY at 90.20.

 

[leovirgo]

Order filled. Stoploss 33pips,TP189.97, TP2 dynamic

 

[leovirgo]

50% profit taken @89.95

 

[leovirgo]

My bias is box 1, but it could well turn out to be box 2. Still 50% short on UJ.

2.45update: covered the rest +10pips. Don't want exposure before the housing news.

 

[leovirgo]

Lucky escape from the spike, UJ net 25 &10 pips for each of 50% units ...

GU: Looks like I've missed a nice sell short on cable at 1.6380.
EU: stuck in boxes (literally, between sell/buy meanzones, shown on chart as blue and red boxes)
UJ: Bearish but won't sell yet
GJ: like GU, missed a nice spot to sell from
EG: bullish, but not my place to buy
