triphop replied Sep 21, 2012Ooops, missed the drop. Happened at 45 as per y/day but I thought it might hold for a bit longer than that but clearly not. Too late now, that's me done tradewise till Sun eve. expecting 1.2970 to hold So first week journalling, kind of works. ...

triphop replied Sep 21, 2012Perfectly roasted. So now, UY. This is a bit tenuous, but I've gone light long just now for a bit of longer term (mid week at least) to get another leg up to around 79.50. There is no complicated reasoning to this other than 77 is pretty much a no ...

triphop replied Sep 21, 2012Revised target to 3030. No immediate shorts on reversal though, need to see it rest like a turkey out the oven.

triphop replied Sep 21, 2012Whipping around a bit but it checked the 3000 level so still on. The big drop just was hairy but I'm not convinced. Looks like a good discount to me.

triphop replied Sep 21, 2012Tidy. EU made it's way to to 3000, but the 3000 causing a bit of turbulence. If we don't see 3000+ in the next hour, it's broken but for now, holding. GU rocketed further, now at resistance. I'd definitely lighten up there if I was in, but as said I ...

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012Turned out to be a good call - not the trades, which both closed for a grand total of fanny adams, but to do research instead. I've cut right back on researching because I'm pretty stable in strategy now, but I had a corking day. Finally figured out ...

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012OP, take a look at the spreadsheet this guy posted in a thread where I was asking roughly the same thing - working out maximum losing streaks to optimise position sizing. The spreadsheet's a mini work of art. Didn't seem to do much for most others, ...

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012GU forget it. It's acting up like a stroppy teenager, I've canned it. Holding small longs on UY and EG both slightly positive moved to b/e, but I have to say I think today's going to be retraces on the dominant trends, which makes for bloody awful ...

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012GU way wrong, getting read to flip it, holding UY. Looks like the best starts were had in Asian today. Got to give 'em their turn once in a while.

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012Major moves overnight. Oz has sunk on weak Chinese data and eu and gu taken a knock too. I'm in a light long on GU on the lows. More shortly.

triphop replied Sep 20, 2012So yesterday was a bit of a write off. A number of things caught me offguard - the biggest being the move at the fix yesterday which I waited out. By the time it finished I was fully in recovery mode, so not going for profit. Shame, but it moved way ...

triphop replied Sep 19, 2012Scrappy do. -10 on GU in total for both sides, looks like the morning's work is going to be EU led. Suspect GU will hold around it's current levels, and EU will set the tone. Could have played it a bit smarter this am by checking back on the ...

triphop replied Sep 19, 2012Right, we're set for the day now. Bearish on EU/GU but I'll manage this as I see it - ie, I'm ready to rescue these puppies should they need it. Any encroachment much past current levels - 20 pips or so and I'm in rescue mode. Closed down UY. Light ...

triphop replied Sep 19, 2012So what's been happening since I've been sleeping? UY picked up nicely on BOJ minutes, EU sat 20 in the hole, nearing a point where I'm looking to add on. All looking rosy. GU currently testing that high spoke of yesterday... hold on
