UCAD keeps going after yesterdays high

The Swamp

Also took a post-news scalp, ala vvFish style.

I generally disregard the level or "power" and just look at the direction. That is, USD is dropping, CAD is rising, so I sell USDCAD, that is what happened on my charts on every USD pair. Also, one will get different readings from different brokers, ...

Also, been trying this and Tony's approach. Tony's approach shoots for more pips, where the gains outweigh the losses, but does use a SL. vvFish's approach take a small, but very meaty, bites with a high win rate, but no safety SL that I see (unless ...

I'm a novice to this approach, but it takes a ton of screen time. vvFish and others have a ton of screenshots in here, I went through a hundred at least and then some live. Its all there, but I'm only using cc, not sure on the how to best use the ...

Tried it once on GJ, got hit by whip saw spread spikes, best on majors. Fun method though. Thx vvFish.

One more, UCAD

News trading discussion - continuation

Been playing around with this.

News trading discussion - continuation

I'm nothing, take a look at the volume vvfish plays news with, insane.

The Swamp

Took Ucad and Ecad shorts, first trades both spike in profit then s/o at BE, immediately re-entered and closed for plus 6%. Could have easily lost 2% too, but that's the play anyway (admittedly not for everyone)

The Swamp

Took scalp sell in UJ and but in EU for small pips, in and out in 5 min. Still want to play UCAD short, looking for a better entry before the news, might not happen though with these poor US numbers.

The Swamp

Okay, will play. I am with dollar weakness mid-term, stall here and another test 139, LMT BUY 1.129x -> TP => 1.139x | STP => 1.119x | r:r -=> 1:1

The Really Useless Thread

looking to short UCAD around 2838 ish, if it ever gets there before US numbers come out, area should be resistance now

The Swamp

still holding Ucad short, will exit when it reverses enough to hit my jumping stop. Wish they all worked out like this...

The Swamp

Finally caught the UCAD break, holding on.

The Swamp

fomc speech in a few hours, would not be surprised if we will get a sniff of what happened in the closed board and then presidential meetings yesterday, all calculated,. Just wondering if it (whatever that is) is already priced-in...

The Swamp

Well, that was quick, s/o at be/ Will look to re-enter again. Want to catch the break down.

The Swamp

Shorted UCAD @ 2881 tp 2761 sl 2911 will set to BE if +20 and then trail the same

The Swamp

agreed, looking to AU and NU for the quick moves against dollar, seem a better play than the other pairs (not a long term trade)
