EURGBP was always a boring pair. It's worth checking it.

Euro/Usd aka fiber is high resistance environment, very free flowing - at least this week

Avoid Gbp/Usd aka cable, worst pair to trade, low resistance environment and hunts stops none stop.

The few pairs I checked outside the majors look like alt-coin price action, just terrible

me too, I was looking at juicy liquidity to target and, but I have regretted being part of it. I managed to hit my final target today and will not look at it for 2-3 weeks.... but you have to change between EU and GU, see which flows betters and trade the one with better flow, because it changes all the time.

Before the war, EU was terrible to trade....

but conditions are very difficult now either way, the strategy is to survive, dont blow your account and take low risk until the war settles.

Is it true that he placed mines in the Strait of Hormuz? This is just a typed news. There is no definite proof whether the mines are real or not.

Iran is cutting its own throat the only income they have is oil if they can't keep it pumping they will have to stop all together because the only place they got to store it is on tankers.

Don't listen to this. Stay focused on buying gold and BTC.

No. I would say DO NOT BUY GOLD. If hostility resumes, Gold is going down(wrt US$)
Best to stay on the sideline for now until this situation is resolved.

I've been long EURUSD since the beginning of the week. It's still floating in the red. There's no certainty about the Trump effect.

Short Eur USD. War is going to start soon in early May.

USA already issued a warning yesterday 22nd April to tell all Americans to leave Iran.

Aren't you tired of all this? Aren't you demanding justice for US citizens? This is never ending. When it reduces floating, it floats again.

Blackmailing to put mines in strait of Hormuz turns out more serious threat than having big army or atomic weapons. Pentagon said yesterday that it will be 6 months to clean the strait from mines. Nothing can be done with it, even if war stops, long time needed to open the strait. That gives Iran an ultimate power no one other country has.

    Trump Says Not Anxious, 'All The Time In The World' To End War, As Freeze On US Negotiations...

    From zerohedge.com|Apr 23, 2026|4 comments

    President Trump pushes back on claims he is anxious to end the war; says he has all the time in the world, Iran does not. However, consumer prices and at the pump could steadily ...

    Trump: I have all the time in the world, but Iran doesn’t; A deal will only be made when it’s...

    From @realDonaldTrump|Apr 23, 2026|43 comments

    For those people, fewer in number now than ever before, that are reading The Failing New York Times, or watching Fake News CNN, that think that I am “anxious” to end the War (if you would even call it that!) with Iran, please be advised that I am possibly the least pressured person ever to be in this position. I have all the time in the World, but Iran doesn’t — The clock is ticking! The reason some of the Media is doing so poorly with Subscribers and Viewers is because they no longer have credibility. Iran’s Navy is lying at the bottom of the Sea, their Air Force is demolished, their Anti Aircraft and Radar Weaponry is gone, their leaders are no longer with us, the Blockade is airtight and strong and, from there, it only gets worse — Time is not on their side! A Deal will only be made when it’s appropriate and good for the United States of America, our Allies and, in fact, the rest of the World. President DONALD J. TRUMP
