    EUR/USD & GBP/USD & AUD/USD Forex Trading

    Looks like GBPUSD is gonna hit some reisitance at 1.6450-55, which is around the 61.8% on the hourlies of the recent high back on 6/29. If it takes that out, next level could be 1.6546 which would be 76.4 level.

    EUR/USD & GBP/USD & AUD/USD Forex Trading

    Uh...everyone. Your risk/reward ratio is skewed, especially since you are not scalping as cabletrader referenced. You are setting your TP and SL at time of trade which can be dangerous. Look at it this way, would you risk a $4 dollar bet to make $1 when the odds are not 1:4 in your favor...

    EUR/USD & GBP/USD & AUD/USD Forex Trading

    Yes, the numbers held, but what was your basis for making these calls? Was it simply that they were nice round numbers? Did you see some resistance on the charts?

    EUR/USD & GBP/USD & AUD/USD Forex Trading
