Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

thanks, MF. 120-pips out of 200 is not bad at all. this has been the most dangerous market I ever traded.

Yeah I did good, got all the pips short on the fall to the bottom. last close was 1.2111.

just my trading style.

called "suicidal." :D

hagwe!

Thanks Skalpz,

I was thinking of a retrace, but something like 100-200 pips, not much more, and then a drop below 1.2000. I think the Euro is still weak fundamentally.

I'm staying out now, all square on all positions. Made another 16 pips on riding the EURUSD wave just that little bit lower, then couldn't be arsed to keep an eye on it, and have a busy weekend and monday with my business, so don't want to be thinking about the forex! lol. Today made over 120 pips all together, but could have been over 200, oh well, its the way the cookie crumbles...

hope you've done well mate?


Oh, and hope you've done well in the forex aswell... I know them websites can be a right distraction... lol ;-)

Have a good weekend!

Hello mate,

Like I said, I was thinking more on the lines of 200 pips or so, but I think its come back up nearly 100 or so already hasn't it?

I'm not in any trades at the moment. Will do some work on it tonight.

Was thinking Long GBPJPY, but its gone up too quickly for me to jump in now. Shame because I meant to do so just before the weekend (in fact I did it on the oanda game account I have, and so far I'm 85 pips up. Bastard!

Did you go long at 1.20** or you just thinking in terms of clawing to some of your unrealised losses? lol ;-)
 
Just looked at the charts today, and noticed something like 80 pips drop in what seems like a couple of minutes? Any specific reason for such a quick drop? Any news I missed out on?

Cheers

Greetings from Greece, my friends. What's better than a vacation in the Greek islands with your new fiance'? Logging in to find your GBP/JPY trades about 300 or so pips up and closing them. Paid for the vacation and a lot more.

Am not back until Monday, will chat you then. Until then, it's tough typing on a Greek keyboard. :(

Cheers!
 
Congratulations mate, nice one! (on the fiance)

Regards the GBPJPY, I went with a similar trade, closed out earlier though, only made 70 pips or so I think, then went back into a trade later, lost 50 pips or so.

Will chat when you get back, but I think we should start a thread on GBPJPY and really study it, coz it seems like a really opportunity with that interest carry and the way the chart flies all over the place. Looks like a kindergarten kid did it!
 
Got back and shorted EUR/USD before market open (1.2280). I'll watch it closely and see if the disaster of the EU budget meeting is as bad for EMU as I think.
