Will be taking longs shortly and I'll try to remember to post but no one else does on my thread :(

 

I post whatever I do, just don't trade very often.....

 

In fact, just going long GJ at 208.05 with 75 pip stop and a target circa 213.50

 

How long you holding this for?

Few days probably, see how quickly it pans out. Moving over to larger TF's mean the targets are further away of course so I won't be posting / trading as often but on this TF, trades are usually 3-4 days.

 

That wasn't meant about you btw, that Jtrader and Trendie could put fingers to keyboard occasionally too :roll eyes:;)

As i mentioned before on t2w, I have 2 accounts which I trade exactly the same. One I get a 'wage' and the other is run till end of week and take the average. Neither last week were exactly great and both run all week.

 

Anyhow, this week, the wage account closed for just past target @ 205.80 for +220 and the other still open.

Closed for +250

 

Order in to buy @ 204.75 with 100 (:shocked:) pip stop.

 

EDIT: btw - I do not expect, if my order gets filled, to get stopped for even close to -100, its just a safety net so I can sleep peacefully. 240min candle alarms and alerts at points on the way down set just in case so I can act in case of the inevitable!

Not best pleased with this area and it stalling here.

 

Whilst it is important, it statistically gave 4 false signals prior and whilst this time may be correct, I'd really like it to break it and continue up.

 

Incidentally, if it does hold, it could proceed to become an H&S formation on the 4hr.

Arghh, something has come up and going to have to take a couple of days away. :(

 

'Wage' account closed out for +221

 

My other account closed out for another +210 so with the +1 and +250 already, equalling +461.

 

Have a good week all.

...and breakeven stoploss.

 

Not usual way for me but as I have a healthy return already this week plus dubious about this area anyhow, the 4hr S/R suggests safety and I am cautious today.

Closed for +9. Never traded GJ over NFP and dubious. Shouldn't be I know but still....

 

That's +600 for the week and I'm calling it a day/week.

 

Have a good weekend all.

Right never traded currencies before, so just messing around on a sim account with it.

 

Just applying a bit of a trading know how to it to see what that crack is with this market.

 

Anyway, know it isn't a live trade, but USD/JPY went long 108.7, and out at 108.12

    • Date: 26th November 2024. Trump’s tariff threats boosted Dollar; Peso, Loonie, Gold & Oil Lower. The Trump trade picked up steam as investors cheered his pick for Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent. Beliefs he will be a steadying voice in the administration’s fiscal measures, while still following President-elect Trump’s tariff and tax commitments, underpinned. Asia & European Sessions:   Trump threatened on Monday to impose sweeping new tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico on his first day as US President to crack down on illegal immigration and drugs. He would impose a 25% tax on all products entering the country from Canada and Mexico, and an additional 10% tariff on goods from China as one of his first acts as president of the US. Bessent’s 3-3-3 plan aims to cut the deficit to 3% of GDP, boost growth to 3%, and increase oil production to 3 mln barrels. Treasury yields dove in a curve flattener, extending their drops through the session, on expectations inflation will decelerate. A strong 2-year auction also supported. The Dow led the charge, climbing 0.99% to 44,736, a new record peak as the rally broadens. The S&P500 climbed to 6020, a session peak, but finished with a 0.3% gain to 5987. The NASDAQ closed 0.27% higher. Today, stock markets in Europe are posting broad losses, with the DAX down -0.6%, the FTSE 100 0.4%, after a largely weaker close across Asia. ECB: Lane suggests ECB must be open-minded on speed of rate cuts. The ECB’s Chief Economist said in a speech on Monday evening that “remaining open-minded about the speed and scale of adjustments is in fact a valuable strategy across various environments, as different situations may necessitate distinct approaches.” This careful, step-by-step strategy enables us to observe the responses of the economy to our decisions and continuously refine our understanding of their impacts.” The comments leave the door open to a 50 bp move in December, but also tie in with our expectation that the central bank will deliver a 25 bp while tweaking the forward guidance and commit to additional moves. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex hit a session high of 107.50 and is currently lower at 106.85. Mexican peso and Canadian dollar slumped as the dollar is being viewed as a haven after the comments of President-elect Donald Trump on tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China. USDCAD spiked to 1.4177 and USDMXN rallied to 20.74. Oil and Gold lost ground, in part on cooling geopolitical risks, and on Trump trades. Oil dropped -3.03% to $69.09 per barrel, in part on the Trump trade and on talk of a potential cease fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Similarly, gold fell -3.26% to $2605 per ounce.
