what do you do corin?
I rig currency price data for a UK clearer 
Used to do it for a prime broker, but the grub & tea is a notch or two more palatable in the bank dining rooms.
Ho ho ho….one of the real important tasks then!
It’s not the one with its own shoe-shine boy in the executive restroom by any chance?
When you hit the required minimum post count, fire off a pm to Scott (double echo) & jjay.
You all can swap war stories.
Nah, it’s bound to be the one who double dips their cucumbers before serving them up in neat little triangle sandwiches with the crusts cut off for high tea meetings on the 5th floor. Aint that right Scotty boy?!
Those old school tie types sure know how to entertain.
Obviously that excludes you jay having been dragged up on the wrong side of the tracks - you just struck lucky on the final interview when the chief recruiter was sick with man flu & the HR bird took a shine to your pretty features.
On the subject of ho ho ho’s, where are those 2 americano lassies with their christmas jing-a-lings??
I’d like to request another festive tune by those sexy jap girlies pleeeze, like wot you presented the past couple years…they must have a stockpile of them ready for our pleasures

You’re far too familiar with them for my liking!
But alas, it’s the one 3 doors down across the road where you have to know the “handshake” just to get past Mervyn on the door.
it’s as if they recorded it solely with you in mind billy!
apologies, but it’s a re-re-re-repeat of years gone by
it is a seasonal classic though
enjoy
There could be an interesting long opportunity on EUR/NZD if it would replicate the last weeks behaviour…
There’s always each-way opportunity in everything my man, & I imagine if you’ve been absorbing the content you’ll be aware of the usual high probability prompters cast amongst the pages to offer you a likely side to choose at any time a pair sets up with said opportunity?
Since the beginning of December after it tagged it’s yearly highs it’s turned a tad sour don’t you think?
It’s slipped a couple of lower tops & dropped last week’s + yesterday’s lows to boot, not to mention slipped a big round number earlier today.
The usual exponents of this concept would be short this pair based on recent current themes, moving to neutral if any of the important session levels get violated & then looking for longs as & when the momentum/pressure dictated so.
Bearing in mind what this background/foreground profile dictates, what will you personally be seeking in order to encourage you to place your money down on the long side of this pair at the moment & keep you there?
Hi Compact, of course it is on a down trend on 4H TF and I wouldn’t commit any money until I’ll see a change in it’s behavior (HL and HH on 4h tf and/or strong buying) but I thought it was interesting to take an eye on it.
An other interesting pair is GBP/AUD, but the situation is quite similar and we should wait and see if the level 1.7550-1.7590 holds.
Yeah, if you were looking for higher probability long opportunities on currencies based in that neck of the woods, you’d perhaps have been eyeing candidates such as the kiwi v/s swiss, yen & perhaps cad as a back pocket reserve.
Reason being they were all primed to continue challenging key session levels to the topside, whilst using their respective round numbers as buffer/gauge points. Oil could be pitched into that group too for similar reasons.
To be honest if you’re focused exclusively on fx it’s lacklustre at best out there generally at this time of year for obvious reasons, but there’ll often be the odd bit of value if you look close enough.
The plus points with this concept however is the fact you can spot those value candidates very quickly & easily given the framework they key off.

ftse & spx to the upside + gold & silver to the downside would also have ticked those boxes too I assume, considering they’re the strongest performers highlighting continuation momentum pressure – that’s if I’ve understood your graded filtering process correctly?
Indeed you have & yes they would.
But then I’d be very surprised if you didn’t given your background.
It’s not exactly the most difficult concept to wrap ones head around & apply consistently.
True. But in my experience the better models rarely are.
You’ve presented & developed a good quality thread with sensible content.
Definitely a keeper.
…just remember william, if you don’t go to sleep santa won’t drop thru the chimney!

At least your jing-a-ling is an original, which is more than can be said for that lazy sister of yours. It must be all that stress she’s under these days occupying the big leather swivel chair slinging quality malt down her throat & puffing on those hand rolled cubans!

The probability percentage values on those would have been quite high then leading up the continuation breakout levels?
Certainly in comparison to everything else on the usual watch lists within those instrument tree’s?
ha ha…me thinks you’ve played a similar game before me does.
Care to take a little stab at putting the runners in the correct traps?
