    Getting skinned alive on the eur/usd tonight sold at 1.1406 now at 1.1520, going to be up all night:(

    If it was me I'd cut losses on a dip as it seems you had a decent day. Some Elliots showing 1.18. My final buy was at 1.143 so I'm biased and could be wrong.

    Glenn Stevens to speak around 2:30am. No way to anticipate the tone. AUD & CAD are under a lot of pressure.

    I see eur/usd hitting 121 and eventually 135.

    I will move trade to break even soon and hit the hay.(hopefully :))

    Euro buy triggered stop overnight at +58 pips. Going abroad on Friday for two weeks so that's me done for a while. Best of luck folks but be careful.

    EUR/USD is in breakout territory. It broke to the upside this week but is now back in formation. False breakout? Who knows but it should be watched for a weekly close above or below.... If it goes to the downside and breaks out, 9800 is on the cards to the upside 12500 in the coming months. 1-3 weeks or formation is null.

    The break will do you the world of good.

    Have a good one!

    Opened a small Unilever position just after lunch. small gain so far. Hopefully china/asia don't nuts over the weekend!

    markets are still down 5-6% on levels pre great fall of china....I think theres still a bit more of a recovery to come (assuming no more craziness) in the next week or two (before labour day).

    The fact that we breach the 11200 mark and dropped back into the lower range could mean a retest.

    Yeah no wonder they party it up and take coke, some stress.
    I feel im getting more disciplined now, cutting trades that go against me earlier for example.
    Really conservative with my trades as well only risk 2.5% of account on open trades.
