This is just how i'm viewing the eurusd at the moment. If it pops through a line and looks like it sticking, I'll look at taking the trade, especially if goes north.
IMHO of course.

I've closed it at +3 - don't feel like waiting any longer👎



Look at it now - probably it's going to fall some more. Doesn't matter - I'm not in it any more.

Not a good trading day at all.

Here's a useful trading tip for you Peter...
...There's a direct inverse correlation that occurs when bernanke speaks...
i.e. No matter where the price is in relation to your target, when he starts talking your stop loss will be hit first!
No one quite knows how he does it but its very effective. And its impossible to avoid. Even if you tried hedging, he would manage to hit both stop losses first!
