I like the NZD chart, very compelling.

But how do you reconcile in your mind the fact that you are essentially taking a long Dollar position, and therefore might as well be in any Risk Off position in these strongly correlated markets

i look at other markets for correlation but generally i dont worry about things like that,just trade what i see, if it goes wrong,theres plenty more chances

High/Low ranges for the past 12 hours are about 1/2 of normal. audusd looks like the only one that has moved much. ECB rate meeting later. Should get some action around that. For now I'm probably going to stand aside.

short nzd at .7819 sl.7831

dont want to miss out small stakes,no 1/2s off

sure to be a spike if trade goes wrong
 
very risking,but much to gain, not much to lose. Trade may well spike up and take me out,but its a great entry point

mm, how you draw your line then - you're coming from a long way back

thats the thing thats hardest to explain, best i can say is that certain types of lines look right. i try and look for resistance from further back, as in the cable chart at 1.5750, right on the line and right at level of resistance. What I do is simple in principle but i think years of being screwed has given me in bedded patterns and types of lines that work,
