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: 22nd November 2024.   BTC flirts with $100K, Stocks higher, Eurozone PMI signals recession risk.   Asia & European Sessions:   Geopolitical risks are back in the spotlight on fears of escalation in the Ukraine-Russia after Russia reportedly used a new ICBM to retaliate against Ukraine’s use of US and UK made missiles to attack inside Russia. The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver. Profit taking and rebalancing into year-end are adding to gyrations too. Wall Street rallied, led by the Dow’s 1.06% broadbased pop. The S&P500 advanced 0.53% and the NASDAQ inched up 0.03%. Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94. The AUDNZD spiked to 2-year highs amid speculation the RBNZ will cut the official cash rate by more than 50 bps next week. Oil surged 2.12% to $70.46. Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year. Haven demand balanced out the pressure from a strong USD following mixed US labor data. Silver rose 0.9% to 31.38, while palladium increased by 0.9% to 1,040.85 per ounce. Platinum remained unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
