Surfing the Forex wave

Good luck, Mr X. Watching with interest, here.

I always find it interesting to see "where/how people draw lines on charts" ... but I like this sort of trading, and wish you well with it. :)

Ok thank you. Love the shoes.
 
Bought gbp/jpy 119.02, 25pip sl, 1% risk,

sl now at break even as its Friday, US stockmarket about to open and good data for US.

Bid activated whilst in shower, hence the late post.

Sold gbp/jpy 118.97, 25 pip sl, 1% risk.

Support and resistance back in Sept and Oct 2011.

sl moved to breakeven. Left position open overnight as no major news was due.

Aiming for risk:reward of at least 1:3.

Want to get some points on the scoreboard.

I wanted to sell gbp/jpy at 118 earlier today but resisted due to UK/Euro rate decisions and US data.

US data was worse than expected so guess that is why usd/jpy weakening.

I think gbp is weak (some more bad data today) and jpy strong versus gbp, eur and usd.

Have to go out for a while but have placed offer on gbp/jpy at 117.98, 25 pip sl and 1% risk in case in gets there.
 
Cancelled gbp/jpy order. Will leave eur/jpy trade open as no important data due overnight.
 
Gbp/usd: Looking for upper trendline break. Looking for support at lower trendline.

Trendline from the low in May now acting as resistance.

Will sell gbp/usd at touch of daily trendline from the low in May 2010. Placed an offer at 1.5394, 1% risk, 60 pip sl.

Also placed offer for aud/jpy at 80.23, 1% risk, 30 pip sl.

Sl was hit on Friday's eur/usd buy, was stupid not moving my sl to breakeven!
