Some resistance coming up on on this pair with a nice convergence...a CF would be great also.

:)
Happy Trading

My short order at 146.80 gave me 75 pips down to the sk, where I took a long this morning because the 240 chart created an Evening star, and I figured we were going back up to test it. Then when it reached the D ext again, another short has given an additional 70 pips, so over 200 so far, and I'm still short hoping the Sk will break. We will see, but I like the 60 bear candle sitting there.

:)

Happy Pipping

The 60min support gave us a CF at the trendline to go long up to the 162%. Subsequently, when the 240 chart hit the 786 fib, along with the old cons support turned resistance, a nice 5min trade developed for 50 pips this morning.

:)

Happy Pipping

Market is currently working on a 240 bearish candle at the pennant resistance

Raj

nice 100 pips while I got some sleep (short after 240 bear candle)....we're at the support now, lets see if something on the 60min forms bullish - wish all trading was this simple, love these large pennants lol

Raj

Good Raj - i'll be keeping a look out . Rob

Thx Raj.. .now have a bearish engulfing on the 1H... I have taken... keeping in mind that although we have broken the 1.27 on the up subswing from the low... we haven't hit the d (1.618).... So we could be doing a gartley... which could take us to the .86 on the middle swing.. and < 618 on the larger swing.

Raj
01-28-2010, 07:22 AM
Kurt, good call on the gartley...hopefully you grabbed some from the 86 fib...I see the 240 bear candle there, but I'm not shorting this one unless we break the sk support

:)

Raj
01-28-2010, 08:17 AM
A little late entry, but never-the-less, 50 banked.

:)

Raj
01-29-2010, 09:26 AM
Two possible entries on the GJ...I took the last one after the bearish engulfing candle...have banked 50 at 144.75 where I see a lot of support.
And, no real reason for it, but the chart is looking like a bull crown setup, so 50 is good enough for a Friday



:)

Raj
02-08-2010, 11:30 AM
Not much happening on the market today, so I've been scalping the 5min chart.

:)

Raj

Still trading the cons in the Asian session

:)

Raj
02-09-2010, 10:57 AM
I was waiting for the market to reach the 382 res, then got a small 5min signal for a nice short

:)

Raj
02-11-2010, 03:48 PM
Well so far we're consolidating at the 139 support, but daily had closed a MS followed by some TB, so I'll be watching the 60min for any bullish signals.

:)

Raj
02-17-2010, 08:29 AM
The long was nicely played out from the daily support, now as we've reached the 162%, i took a scalp short trade from the 5min 86 fib for about 50 pips so far.

:)
Happy Pipping

Raj
02-17-2010, 08:59 AM
Another 5min swing gives us another 60 pips from the 618 res

:)

Raj
02-18-2010, 09:49 AM
Nice convergence with the trendline and 618 for an entry this morning...I have banked 150.

:)

Nice one Raj.My computer went down on me. It's working properly now i hope.

Raj
02-25-2010, 07:22 AM
I have taken an aggressive bullish scalp entry based on the D ext hit on the 240 chart at 135.63. Will have to see if a real set-up materializes fo a retrace.

:)

pipsqueakr
02-25-2010, 09:51 AM
I had a d ext being hit on the daily...but how do you get in long without a CF? do you just put your stop below an assumed 1.18 or 1.27 or were you just being aggressive with a super tight stop?

Raj
02-25-2010, 10:19 AM
Maestro, yes stop best below 127, scalped 48 pips here untill the market hit the 12day MA on the 15min, then short TT back down to the D ext - it ran further, but oh well. Long scalp again now at 135.30

:)

LOL... u are a trading machine... i'm trying to keep up but my charts don't flip that fast ;)

pipsqueakr
02-25-2010, 08:02 PM
10 hrs and 100 pips later I'm still looking for a 5m crown... we fell so far so fast how could i get in on a 15m candle... LOL... Raj you need to hold classes as to what gets us in so early :)

If we get the BuC we should still have some pips as we're just reentering the AB

Raj
02-26-2010, 05:50 AM
Kurt you said it yourself...something about destiny LOL.

Anyhow, I have limited out at the 382 res, with a subsequent short from there. If we take out the low, I'm seeing some convergence around 134.40 area...let's see what happens. But its Friday, and Im not sure if there is any news coming out, if there isn't, I don't imagine any supp/res levels will be broken.

:)

Raj
02-26-2010, 12:07 PM
Kurt, here's that Bull crown you were looking for yesterday.
Hmmmm, time for a 5min straddle trade???????LOL

:)

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 12:50 PM
Thanks got some of this one... a 5m straddle???? and i thought i was the scalper :) LOL.

It's the trading weekend... leave some for next week man :)

Raj
03-01-2010, 05:05 AM
Im taking some north pips here on a counter trend scalp....gj from the d ext, gbp also from convergence of D and daily trendline

:)

Raj
03-01-2010, 11:43 AM
Have taken profit at the 382 res on both pairs with a subsequent short scalp on GJ

:)

pipsqueakr
03-02-2010, 05:56 PM
Been scalping... on the 5m chart

pipsqueakr
03-02-2010, 08:00 PM
Amazing how even the micro charts playout... last swing hit the 1.27.. currently @ the .86 on the downswing.. will be happy if we can break the high so i can trade something a bit larger than a 5m :)

pipsqueakr
03-05-2010, 01:38 PM
GJ trade yesterday was... from the daily trade @ the opening of the Wellington session. We had decent supportand the stochs were shouting long. I didnt have the nerve to sit through NFP.. but if u did u may have gotten a few all the way to the DTL, 300+?

Raj
03-05-2010, 05:16 PM
Kurt, where you been man? Its awfully lonely in this place. I'm contemplating moving my posts to another site. Anyhow, I jumped onto a moving train on this one. Long at 134.90 - why at that price you ask? Well i have no idea, can't remember what made me pull the trigger - is that an honest enough answer LOL. Maybe because it cleared the high. And yes banked for now at the TL.

:)

pipsqueakr
03-06-2010, 09:45 PM
Hey know what u mean Raj... it can get lonely. I should be around a lot for the next couple of weeks. Need to find some good ones. The thread update emails used to seem to work.. now... it can be a couple of days before i get notification of a post... :( that can be a challenge.

If you traveling please leave bread crumbs :)

Raj
03-07-2010, 06:10 PM
LOL will keep you posted.

:)

Raj
03-10-2010, 07:20 AM
I'm watching this level on GJ at the moment...We've had a 240 bullish engulfing candle at the 618 support, but currently sitting at the 382 res, so I'll watch for a possible break of the 382 for a target of 135.65 and 136.00, or a CF for the short

:)

pipsqueakr
03-10-2010, 09:59 AM
Congrats, 135.65 hit... LOL.. u did it again.. wish i had been checking more frequently... i was scalping (hard work)... would have enjoyed just flowing wih the swing if i knew u were on board... LOL

Raj
03-10-2010, 10:32 AM
Thanks Kurt. GJ loves that .50 fib though, Ive taken the short...now we have 30min ES!!

:)

Raj
03-10-2010, 10:54 AM
Forgot the 5min chart....banked 45+ at the 162. Done for the day

:)

Raj
03-10-2010, 03:34 PM
Both GJ and Gbp/USD have closed TB.

:)

Raj
03-10-2010, 07:16 PM
I got in a little late on this one...second swing from this morning...that 86 level would have been prime as it acted as resistance all day today, but i took it at the 618 res...banked at 135 since sleep beckons.

:)

Raj
03-11-2010, 05:31 AM
Daily TB helping out for the north move on this potential crown set-up. We may be able to scalp some off the 382 res at this point.

:)

pipsqueakr
03-11-2010, 05:39 AM
TY sir for the heads up, been scalping the 5m both ways this am.... with a bias for the long... would have kept going. Now neutral to short.. and paying way more attention... as per ur fib level.. but keeping in mind.. we could have already hit ur RT

also not a big believer in indicators by themselves but 15m - 60m stochs.. indicate that we may be getting some down pips

;)

pipsqueakr
03-11-2010, 07:49 AM
Congrarts Raj... i didnt get all of them but got more than enough for a scalp :) from 135.40.. thx...

now on the micro tfs 5/15m we have pot Bear Crowns (BeC) to take us back to 4h RT area???

Raj
03-11-2010, 09:49 AM
Kurt, I had some chart issues this morning, and still on-going...as far as I can remember I placed take profit at 135.60 because we had SK support at 135.50. So I'm not sure what happened so far from that level...hopefully a north move. Hopefully I can get this resolved soon.

:)

pipsqueakr
03-11-2010, 10:28 AM
As is way more than the case than not... u were right on.. with that 1... amazes me how u take those 382s .. the 618's i'm with u but a bit shy about those 382s still, hope u can show me the light :)

Raj
03-17-2010, 06:00 AM
I'm watching this level - 139.20 as we are at 618 res on the 240, and also 127 res on the 60min chart. We are clearly in the buy zone, so we would need a CF definately.

:)

Raj
03-19-2010, 09:57 AM
From the 618 resistance the market gave a nice pennant pattern which I shorted today because of the market came back to test the underbelly of the pennant (also convergence of the downtrendline and also the 382 resistance of the latest down fib). Also could have waited for that bearish engulfing candle and gotten in at 136.78 - still would have had some decent pips.



:)

Raj
03-25-2010, 06:16 AM
This morning I took some nice pips based on the 60min chart reaching the D ext of its upmove, which converged with the 240 charts .50 fib level. Entry was taken on the 5min chart after the CF.

:)

Raj
03-25-2010, 08:40 AM
GJ gives us another CF on the 5min for 50 more pips off the larger TF resistance

:)

Raj
04-01-2010, 11:30 AM
If you're long on this pair, watch out for the daily res...we just scored the last high as well, may get some pullback.

:)

Raj
04-12-2010, 05:08 PM
Looks like we got some Daily TT at the Sk res...just need the 60min 382 support to break now.

:)

Raj
04-12-2010, 07:22 PM
What I did for the Asian session was place a short order below the 382 fib with an initial target at the 618 support. it worked out nicely for 70 pips. The remainder of the lots I will monitor, but I have locked in 1 pip for them.

:)

pipsqueakr
04-13-2010, 01:22 AM
nice... i like the strategy... and wish i had seen the setup in time... congrats

my gj entry for the day

pipsqueakr
04-22-2010, 12:20 PM
Congrats...

It took me a while but i see it LOL. Incredible coming from someone looking for 5m crowns... but when i switch to the 1h, I find that i still concentrate on the main swing without seeing the SK's.

Will practice more to get there... but if u can point out potential setups would appreciate gr8ly :)

Raj
04-22-2010, 12:42 PM
Will try sir...lately very busy, but yes I will try

:)

Raj
04-22-2010, 12:47 PM
Kurt, just have to be careful with this one because we're in a really big 240 potential bear crown...and we're coming up to test the 86 fib again, and this area happens to be the daily SK resistance...that's why we're just going sideways on the 240/daily for the last two weeks

:)

Raj
04-22-2010, 02:01 PM
So why am I going long in a bear crown situation you may ask? Well the daily has also done the 1&2 and it looks like it has found a perfect RT=LT scenario, so im playing the game of supp/res.

:)

Raj
04-23-2010, 09:55 AM
I've banked the long from yesterday at 144.70 as we have reached the daily SK again, and its Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Hope you all have a great weekend

Amazing job... was just looking and wondered if you would have taken. Congrats... have a gr8 wknd

Raj
04-30-2010, 06:22 AM
Im going to get a vanity plate that says "786". Did a small "c" sell as we were at the 786 fib for 50 pips in a matter of minutes...its Friday yet again, time to enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!
