rav700 said:How Do you position yourself in a market like the above.........................
Okay let look at the facts......
Why is the market doing what it is doing ....the traders are all waiting for fomc...obviously....
What is the Technical status...Overbought ....So why dont we take a short....Due to the statement that is just about to be released also......There has to be one more final run up....to kick out all the stops for most short term scalpers\ traders....
What are the 2 trades you could consider ......
Risky: Long @ 07 target the 27 zone for 20 pips stop @ 89
Short @ 75 target the 55 zone for 20 pips stop @ 95
Less Risky Trade: Short @ 515 target 400
L Long @690 target 800....( I doubt this would happen unless the fed mention the rate cut)
Any comments.....
Spot on I have got my eyes peeled to it at this present momment..................Hook Shot said:Rav $/Y looking interesting not sure if you're still watching it ...

How do we trade cable at 6:15 ....I think this would be a nice topic for the afternoon for new position traders
29Investments said:I would guess that anything that they do come out with is likely to send the mkt in 1 direction or the other and that input (if mkt moving) is likely to at least affect the mkt sentiment in terms of days or hours rather than minutes or seconds. I.e. if they come out and say that inflation is still a prime concern we should see a drop in cable of a resonable size and one that isnt likely to whip straight back up again.
Therefore I am tempted to place an OCO order with a sell 20 pips below the mkt and a buy 20 above it, which ever one gets tripped should yield at least 50 pips and (depending on the strength of statement) possibly a new short/medium direction.
Each order will have an IF DONE SL of 20 pips
.............As usual all IMHO etc...
Good Luck/Good Trading
Priceman said:well looky here then, just got back in from work and logging onto my marketmaker software from CMC and it's decided it needs a 9Mb upgrade completing now... why didn't it do it some other time? Surely can't be dirty tricks can it
Anyway, let's see what this baby will give us tonight then... any thoughts chaps? I am still not convinced we ain't seen the finish of the upside like DC predicted. Me I'll try to wait 15 minutes after the news to get the true direction... been burned too many times before with slow fills. News aside anyone else think more upside? Great idea from 29investments on the straggle.
Good luck chaps,
You make it sound very easy mate... where exactly will the highest point be? Best of luck to ya anyway...rav700 said:Hello Guys,
Well 10 mins to go for the mins......I have to be very disciplined to trade these reports........
My Personal thoughts to this are that there will not be a change in the statement and they will also say that they will be vigilant of inflation......
Hence I will wait for cable to get to its highest point and short it...................
Happy Trading
Rav
