fun and games......

 

a little prediction that will fall flat on its face!

 

That would sure be nice, if it would hurry up and just bust back through that resistance zone above 193. Thus far, it's having problems.

 

Overnight... here are my trades. Was too tired to post live...

 

All times are MST (GMT-6).

 

00:00 - Stopped long and reversed for -16. Short GJ @192.94

02:33 - Closed for +52. Long GJ @ 192.422.

 

I'm hopeful this will bounce higher now that it's taken out the March stops, but it looks lethargic so far. I'll close this at break-even if it snaps back.

02:33 - Closed for +52. Long GJ @ 192.422.

 

Crap. Stopped out at b/e. I'll have to wait now.

[cowpip 10]

Long GJ @ 192.30...

 

... on the very long-shot off-chance that they're stop-hunting at the base of this 4-hour candle.

Stop at breakeven.

[cowpip 10]

Closed for +109.

 

Staying flat now until after the rate decision. No point in giving back unnecessarily. Signal would have been to go short though.

Myrtle spotted my slight misprint (also has annoyingly got the teenage mutant theme tune stuck in my head now!)

[cowpip 10]

Crapola... gave back most of my earnings overnight. Misread the charts and should have stuck with the 4-hour. What was I thinking?!?!

[cowpip 10]

One more try here...

 

Long GJ @ 190.16

[wasp 10]

Closed at 192.85 for +50 (woohoo!) :hmpf:

 

Short at 192.82

 

Trailed to 190.82 for +200

[wasp 10]

Closed it for +260 to add to my +240 already and I am done, pre NFP (Not a big fan of NFP) and its been a stressful, annoying week so I am outta here.......

 

Have a good one all.......

[cowpip 10]

Closed at b/e. The 4-hour suggests I need to hold fire and reassess. So I will.

Can't take it. It's near the end of the typical daily range (as if this is typical), and it's within kissing distance of support. It's time for a bounce.

 

Long GJ @ 190.03

Long GJ @ 190.03

 

Just goes to show - you shouldn't anticipate anything. I needed to wait for confirmation. Yes, I'm a dufus!

 

Out for -63 and will now sit and nurse my wounds.

 

This has turned into a bloody ugly day for me. It should have been very rosy.

Cheeky!

 

Well I was going to skip today but after missing out on a 150 trade off the bottom of yesterdays drop, I took a sneaky long today to make up for it!

Short GJ @ 194.85

Your week is starting off very well, my friend. Very well indeed.

[wasp 10]

Nice one cowpip... I'm with you albeit slightly late....... I managed to oversleep and only the dustman got me up in time!

 

I need to work out how to best alarm myself to setups as trading of the sub 1 hour means sods law lets me always sleep through the optimum entries......!

 

I'm short from 194.40

 

Should have taken that long yesterday I said about too! damnit!

[cowpip 10]

Short GJ @ 194.85

 

Closed for +219. Holding flat for now. I closed without a clear technical reason (just wanted to - gut feeling). I know that is not the wisest, but I don't care.

 

Thanks pipmonster! That TL break and 240 min SR played out beautifully!!
