Yesterday was no action in the markets..At least no action which presented any setups to me..

Today made a trade GPB/JPY which got stopped out pretty fast..(in hindsight i was just triggerhappy again :( )

My GPB/USD position is +100pips and i longed Gold @ 896.60..there i am +5.50.

I will hold on to this trades over the weekend.

I Closed my AUD/USD position for 18pips!

 I longed GPB/USD @ 1.9452 with an 100 Pip Stoploss!

Cya tomorrow

So far I did not take any positions today and won`t take any in the next hours..

I missed an Long Entry on GPB/JPY but that`s all so far ;)

have a nice day!

EDIT-> Okay i did take ean entry on AUD/USD..

I longed AUD/USD @ 0.9325 with an SL @ 0.9295 and an TS of 45pips.

Position SIze is 2.4 Lots.

USD/CAD was stopped out for +1 Pip about 5 minutes before the news.

But it was worth the try imho.

EUR/USD and USD/CHF worked out  good as the news came out.

Core Retail Sales are about 0.3% higher than expected and so are @ 0.5%.

Everything else came in as expected.

My Positions stay open with attached 55Pip Trailing Stops.

Will leave now for a few hrs and later on comment on Ben Bernankes speech if there is something of interest imho..see ya later fellows!

EDIT:  I closed my positions as i just got info about a meeting i have to attend. So i am not in proximity to watch from time to time..

But all in all this was quite  a profitable day ;)

cya soon

EUR/USD short  around +90 Pips.

 USD/CAD long  around +50 Pips and at my first target..i am watching price action closely and could close the position at this juncture.StopLoss moved to breakeven.

 USD/CHF long around +50Pips. SL moved to BE. but still some room before reaching my first target.

@ 13:20 GMT  B52 Ben ,our FED Chairman is due to deliver a speech titled “Federal Reserve Liquidity Measures” at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta Financial Markets Conference, via satellite;

and @ 13:30 GMT we get the Core Retail Sales m/m (officially expected at 0.2%) and Retail Sales m/m (officially expected at -0.2%) numbers  for the US of A.   

I will watch those news closely and maybe close half of my positions before to secure the profit and let the rest run , as I am assuming the impact of those news bullish for the USD. All this of course may be subject to change ;)

All 3 Positions are in Profit so far..

EUR/USD is around +50 Pips..moved the StopLoss to Breakeven there.

4H Chart ->

I reversed my stance on EUR/USD and begin to be bullish for the USD.

I longed the USD against the CAD,CHF and EUR. There is some pretty nice price action together with FIB & SupRes confluence.

ALso Crude Oil got hammered quite a bit today.

I am searching for entrys around 120$/barrel.

Here a screenshot of todays action.

..because for a few months I had a subscription to his paid services (just out of interest..i never traded on them because common stocks are not my playing field) and at MINIMUM 3 occasions they gave bullish recommendations on the public&free side of thestreet.com while recommending short selling to their private subscribers on specific companies at the SAME time..i have SEEN it with my own eyes..

I am pretty sure there are some stories about this on the webs too but  cannot remember where..it has been a while..google is ya friend

And now I stumbled upon this website (kudos to CultureofLifeNews)

and i really recommend to read this!  will take some time but it is worth it..take it with the usual grain of salt and form your own opinion..

I am not interested in the names because thats only smoke and mirror for me…but it gives a pretty good impression of “how” stuff works or could work ;)

Have fun!

Got stopped out on first position for a few pips..the second pos got stopped out for a loss! Check the screenshot..

I am waiting for an suitable re-entry point.

I should thoroughly think about getting an PDA for mobile trading to constantly monitor my positions..

Wanted to show this trade which will be the only one for today.

I attached an 55pip TrailingStop to the second position.

First Entry`s Stoploss is already @ breakeven so no risk on this position anymore.

I am quite bullish this week on the carry trades and especially bullish for the Fiber and the aussie dollar.

But now i have to leave and get my mind and body refreshed :D
