Today was two days - up until the NY clsoe and then the square up then. Just two easy setups on the Aussie on the Euro keeping me ina pensive mood after a relaxing Easter break - up 15 pips on mimimal risk and just using the day to feel the market and the waves. Then part two starts...

A day of patience was needed today - some great entries but patience was amiss - I let external factors bother me today - like inane signal providers trying to flog their wares and then people not getting off the phone when asked to (guess I need some rude boots) calling at probably our busiest...

Just a few trades today - missed a great 80/20 spit on the Euro at 23 this morning by 1 pip and didn't chase :( and had to wait for a nice Aussie set up - a few chops on the Euro and a perfect Aussie Murrey +2/8 on the order grid gave us a nice fill got out on a trailing stop for 20 pips - just...

Here is the chart I promised :) The Euro has had a classic sell off from the +2-8 and 80-20 spit in a measured 4-8 move right to Friday's low which was 50% of the move up on this wave count. Another great example of fib retracement of Murrey or Gann Timing. From here the keys are the two...

Just a few trades for me after NFP - a beautiful set up off +2/8 and 8-8 on different time series also a 20 spit. Had to wiz off straight after to an appointment so unfortunately didn't maintain the short -only had the pleasure of watching a perfect impulse off the Murrey/KnovaWave set up. Will...

Lack of Reason -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well well a couple of really nice trades to start the day a plus 13 and a plus 30 on the euro a plus 5 on the Aussie and then a lack of reason from perfect KnovaWave setups. Note the Aussie...

Unfortunately today was one of those days missed some great setups by 1-3 pips that were impulse moves thereafter - just the two trades for +5 and -5. Was out of the office from morning on. Should be all caught up and look forward to two big potential days - ECb & MPC tomorrow and US NFP Friday...

Peter summed the day up - sod's law - we had technical issues in the morning which were resolved around lunchtime - thus missing the bulk of the day and a few small losses. Did a few trades and ended up down for the day which was frustrating but in actuality was not too deterred given all the...

A fairly atypical Monday; Euro overshot a few times - seems to be still in that hard place between impulse and continuation. Yen trade worked perfectly off Murrey 80/20 confluence with no jig. Interesting on Aussie during the US session missed the range by 2 pips both sides (40 pips) - first...

Decent Day - big move during lunch that unfortunately missed and didn't chase offers on inital major thrust higher. Blew through the initial JPY and EUR +2 and -2 trade which told us we were in for something big perhaps. Was all this because of the Solar eclipse? Back in the news is dollar...

A nice start but then little more ais the wave again is one of correction making it one that I tend to stay out of. Best trade this afternoon was tnt's buy of dollar swiss off the 80 spit - nice work :) Profit = 34 pips Time Instrument Type Symbol Entry Stop Exit Profit/Loss Trade Basis...

Much nicer day - as expected IFO broke the shackles and got a perfect continuation pattern on EUR to start the day off. Got run over on my first Dollar Yen trade - seems to be the norm lately with the Hu-Bush meeting jitters. Was very jumpy as wide spreads took hold post Bernanke's first Fed...

Well - been a long time that have gone a full 12 hour trading day without a FX trade - there is a few that set up but not enough confluence to justify the risk reward. Am quite amazed that Bernanke's first Fed meeting as boss has had this affect. IFO is also out in Germany tomorrow so we should...

Looks like I shut up shop too early - we recognised the inside outday on the CHF, EUR & JPY but closed up shop for the weekend - Aussie and Kiwi so weak - took the Aussie long which failed the first time rather than EUR and JPY which both ripped. Profit = 23 pips Not a bad week considering...

Certainly hard work the market at the moment - the Yen is at it's yippy best as the Bush/Hu meeting draws near. Again we await a break of the ranges so we can trade more with a discernable trend and catch more breaks. At the moment we are getting fast breaks on seperate days but still within a...

No more trades then the two near misses from the Am had some sell orders on dollaryen and euro yen at the fulcrums but short by one pip and 6 pips - wasn't chasing ona Monday afternoon ahead of Ben Bernanke :) One of those days - first negative for a while sadly. Loss = 12 pips Time...

So close yet so far - just two trades this morning with perfect 80/20 set ups on the EuroYen and USDJPY. I was stopped out on both 2-3 pips from the low before huge 70 + rallies on both with hardly drawing breath. Unfortunately i was out of the office so wasn't able to rebuy - I didn't do it to...
