2 51 pm was scalp buy on GU again from its HL at 5375/6

Trouble is - too close to red news at 3 00 pm

Ok for a quick scalp and maybe 5 -7 pips it would have been OK - but too late in the afternoon for me to be taking quick scalps ;-)

Annoying - that scalp buy I did not take did 10 pips in 7 mins prior to news

Shame

News is dollar strength atm

EU

3 11 pm

Ideally would like to scalp buy it again above 1190 / 95 support area and even 1200 if possible in next TW

 

[Forexmospherian]

Any scalp buy on the EU above 1190 / 95 would need to see above 1215 and 23 to stay with it - otherwise it might be just a small pullback of 5 -15 pips and then we need to see if low goes 30 mins with no new breach

If we get under 1190 - then still a scalp sell and next supports at 1170 / 80 area

Eu

Short from 30 zone , taken 10 ticks on half, profit stop on rest.

 

[spinola]

spinola , what made you think there was going to be a trend change at your green up arrow, seems more like first leg of beginning of a downtrend?

Well, nothing was/ is guarenteed for uptrend, but I detected underlying strength , so took a perceived value entry for possible continuation upside .

Hard stop on entry was 8.5 ticks, in case it went pear shaped.

Eu.

Just booked 32 ticks on second half eu short. Flat now. .

3 31 pm

First bounce from 92 /3 only made 9 / 10 pips to 1202/3

Not enough to leave any stake on for now

If we stay above 1190 now after half hr change we can look at more scalp buys - but - IF NO 1205 AND 15 then you cannot leave on

EJ

Check out from 3 39pm ( end of TW and 134 35/ 6 )

10 pip move in under 3 mins - got 6 pips - off the pace - but it is the afternoon now

EU

3 43pm

Doing its tease act - ie no bounce over 5 pips and staying then at 89 /90 area making it difficult to judge

Above 1198 and 1205 it easy - a scalp buy

In between 88 and 96 - BTTZ of 8 pips

Under 87 and 85 still a sell

 

[Forexmospherian]

Dog walk planned for after 4 00 pm - in the sun - believe it or not - although still a cold day here in the Midlands

EU just not playing ball and low only held about 13 mins - so to long to wait with not try over 1205 +

GM to all FX Intraday Traders

3 lots of red important news announcements this morning from 8 00am on the Euro - then 9 30 am on the UK Pound and then again at 10 00 am on UK Pound again

Will be about for the LO and first news - and hope to be around and back at desk for the 9 30 am as well.

Then at Lunch time and 1 30 pm - Canadian Dollar news - but none on the US Dollar today.

Overnight we had 2 lots of Aussie Dollar news that as moved up the AU by approx 80 / 90 pips - so with the UCad news later on - I will be hoping to trade both these pairs over the day,

Normal stuff and please feel free to join in etc with your views and thoughts o any FX pair

Have a good day

6 57 am

Start of by saying during the Asian session we have seen a bit of dollar weakness along with strength on the European pair and the AU.

I have not jumped in any scalp after 6 30 or 6 39 am - mainly because all looks so slow atm

I will do quick review now on each pair I plan to trade today

 

[Forexmospherian]

7 00 am

EU

European Open as well and price at 1195 and above interim supports at 1180 /85 the pair is in a bullish price structure but needs over 1205 and and 1222 to carry on holding scalp buys on

 

[Forexmospherian]

GU

7 03am

Price now at 5384 and a scalp buy from after 6 51 am and 7 00 am at 5379

We need above 5388 and 5400 to stay with scalp buys and under supports at 5375 and 70 to be scalp selling etc

 

[Forexmospherian]

Its nice to see from 6 51 am and the EO at 7 00 am we have had nice movements on many pairs - already nice scalp buys on the EU and GU

 

[Forexmospherian]

EJ

7 07 am

Similar set up to EU - but not in a scalp buy from 7 00 am as in EU and GU and too early in the morning fr 3 scalps at the same time

Price moved up 134 10 and a 14 pip move - but the EJ is in a bearish structure under 134 40 and 30 - so we should be able to scalp sell - maybe even under 134 25
