These exotic pairs (Eur/Aud, Gpb/Cad, Gpb/Aud) are the only pairs trending well these days . . .

Gbp/Aud — Hey Strat, could this be an example when you say "look beyond the candles/bar"? This pair has been trending down for some time now. We got a BUOB the other day which got my attention, but definitely not for a long but a chance to get ...

Exactly and speaking of footprints . . . a shot of prices on the daily 10 year. This thing respects s/r just like everything else . . .

They are just using that news noise as an excuse. Watch what the US Fed does. Those psychos have been trying to get things right with their balance sheet. Several of their programs have or are in the process of expiring. The result: less liquidity = ...

That's weird. I have it on one of my Interbank demo feeds. I guess they aren't offering it for real accounts . . .

Yeah the more I look at it it reminds me of Strat's friend Bond . . . I've been fooled by this type of hammer in the past look at the one that formed on CAD/YEN back on October 23 of 08 . . . jmho though . . .

Finally Caught Up — I haven't posted for some time and apologize for that. I think when the thread split off and then re-merged, I got confused. Additionally, I had some personal issues (not trading related) I was dealing with from September ...
