10/29.....Mid week $$$$

Well i guess i shoudve just held on in that EUR/GBP trade yesterday...the lines bounced but then crashed through and brought the pair to .7900 with it..my sell was at .7975ish.....So not only did i mess up by not moving my average but i sold out for a loss and couldve been out lees than 2 hrs later with whatever i wanted for profit.....but a man gotta sleep sometime and it didnt stop us from making $$$$ but sure woulda been nice to keep that $660

 

Wish i was home to sell EUR/USD at 1.28s it formed a cross on the 4hr prob still not a bad sell here on small rallies as the cross is just now happening on 4hr....and its in the 1.2650s now....maybe see mid 1.25s here next couple hrs?

 

USD/JPY chart looks just like EUR/USD  you could see cross coming at .99s now in the .9670s...and just like the other chart the cross is forming with this block so maybe a further dip down here

 

Dont see anything on the 4hr charts i like at all which is always the case this time of night...i need to be home at 10pm to make most trades it seems....be back after i scan through the short term charts

In the 10 mins it took me to write that post EUR/USD and USD/JPY both shot up 50+ pips ....im watching and flipping through the charts to maybe jump in for a sale...BRB

i think USD/JPY comes down first so im in.had i been looking at charts intead of in here typing i couldve sold and been out but im in good still i think sell at 97.033

i could punch myself right in the face.......set it for $400 and i was out in under 2 mins and its dropped to 96.60s......

 

That is my quickest trade ever

 

Its climbing back up here ...back to 97.....4 hr still looks good of course this block will close at 4am so lets watch and see if it can hold on at 97 here.....

 

I like EUR/GBP when i got home as well shoulda jumped in...maybe they can push it back down b4 4am and give me a good buy price

damn it i was in here typing again......i wasnt paying attention to the time that run was right at the close of the HR again....back in at 96.945 on the sell 17 pips $350

 

 

this is tricky as the 1hr and 2hr look as though it could move up some b4 a drop but the 4hr looks like its good so im in....ROUND 2

96.80s

if i wasnt in here  typing id be out.......hit 96.84 was in 97s at 2:11

 

 

i just took $137 ive got to run out to Kroger be back in an hr or so

                                 Gallon of milk $3.79

                            Pack of Marlboro  $4.89

                            Trip to krogers Priceless

 

 

Not true really i can put a price on it...........at least $213 on JPY and at least $350 GBP.......USD/JPY hit a low in the 96.30s just mins after i left and had i been watching the close of the hr i would have taken my limit off[instead of a punch to the face again]and prob got  $600-$800 profit........GBP hit a low in the .7880s and bounced up enough to give us more than $350 i usually go for.....

 

I got in at .7894 just after 3:30..no limit i think this may be good up to mid .79s here..that would be nice after that trip to krogers!!!!!!

.7930s boys and girls..i think i can make $2000+ on thi trade

.7940s......need .7955 for 2k

.79586 for $2000 actually...and here it comes ive moved my limit back......7950s right now 

 

man i get so excited when i hit one of these.....nice and slow climb here

Im kinda stuck here if you look at the 4hr the DMI are either going to cross or bounce apart....for those who dont know,they bounce it goes up cross it drops[in this case]......

 

.7989 for 3k? or Settle for $1000 if im wrong and wait for the cross or bounce next 1-2hrs??????Im down about $400 from the max profit i could have had what do i do?????

back in the .7950s....wow WHERE YOU AT ICEMAN....this would be a good trade for you over norm $$$ per pip in this carry trade....

 

End of the HR coming up..every one has been huge....i missed one krogering.still holding .79495 on the sell

.7954 on the sell

.7961 and still going

 

still holding.....7957 on the sell hope im right here

im still in had a nice run to upper 30s low 40s but they couldnt shake me.....back at .7950 now

 

 

 

.7980s here comes 3k damn it

Well Iceman i look forward to reading this in the afternoon b4 work and seeing you made some $$$$$ while i was ZZZZZZZZZ......Be back around 1-2am to trade if everything goes as planned,i cant stay up and punish myself watching this pair..

 

good luck buddy

Im actually up almost $4000 for the week was thinking i shouldve made $3500 tonight as i was typing @ saw it back in the .7980s....i turned forex off though right after my last post so im sure id be steaming right now...

 

Man i hate nightshift its fun talking to other people every so often

 

 

You can start to go a bitin here alone.......thank god its time to wake up the wife and kids[you have to be crazy to say that]

Nice call buck  was that a 4lot trade for that 2400 ??

 

I enjoy your in game thread. Gotta guess that you might be a buckeye fan like myself   

 

 

 

 

Buck-

 

Congrats on your strong week so far.  When you're at work, man, do you game all these currency moves in your head?

 

Never encountered anyone who was this in to currency---I mean it as a complement and hope you stay disciplined.

 

1iron...that was a 2 lot trade....i sold out for a gain around 75 pips....$16 per pip...per lot so its  $32 and some change X 75 pips

 

CC...i just trade off the chart....ive been hooked on this stuff for a few yrs now....for the longest time i just kept opening practice accounts[they close after a month or so i think,or they use to]and then i opened a mini account,got wiped out a few times and finally started to make more than i lost.

 

Once you have a simple grasp of how the techs work in forex if you have the money to back your trade its really hard to lose unless you just flat out misread the chart,or Crude has its best day ever[sorry that day sucked].....but really when i see bottom bottom on a 4hr i know im not far from an entry.top top a sell.....

 

Go pull up the weekly on EUR/USD,i called this out the other night and said if it dropped some more im in for the long haul that was at 1.24.....I got one lot of EUR/USD in the 1.23s  12hrs later and still holding cause it was bottom bottom on weekly chart and the lines havent really even started to turn yet and we are almost 1.30....in  a month 1.40-50s?......about $1000 every 100 pips

 

I started these threads hoping i could get some folks interested and into trading currency....a few guys pop in and out,i know ive been keeping strange hrs,but with as many people on here that i see making 5k bets you could open a mini and never be in any danger and trading 3-4 lots maybe even more and make a few hundred a day easy!!!!!!!!
