    Stop out on all contracts at break even. EC diid not make the move I expected when Europe session opens. Therefore, I raise stops to break even. Regards, Steve

    I usually trade form the hourly charts and use dailys for the trend. In addition, I use the 15minute charts to time my entries. I am not using divergences for this trade. I am using Moving averages and trend lines. I feel that this is an excallent risk/reward. In addition, there is not...

    Awesome trade BRL I missed the big move because that spike scared me. I almost went short again, but I shorted the USM06 in a big way and I wanted to focus on that trade. Well at least I made money on that short. Although, I am little bit irritated at myself for missing that move in the...

    Bond rally nearing an end?

    Just covered 2 shorts at 11020 and left a runenr out there with a buy stop at 11105. That trade I will use trailing stops. 11115 is not to hard to imagine we might trade to that level consideriing the daily range that the US had done in the past few days. I was lucky that my limit sell...

    BLR, Looks like the eruo is not ready to go down this morning. I too am looking to go short. I placed a short at 1.2200 and lost about 10 pips before I got spooked by the price action. I might re-enter at a higher level.

    BLR, Your opinion reflects mine almost exactly. I think it is too risky to place a long at these levels. Sunday might be a good time for a short to catch some of the re-tracement before the big move up. Although that short will need to be watched like a hawk using tight stops...

    Thanks, USD/JPY is flirting with the very long term upward trend line at 115.80. It broke down below that line for an instant this morning. I expect at least a minor retracement before it breaks down. I will be looking to leg into a EURO long posiiton at a retracement from recent highs...
