Is that a head & shoulders on the hourly U-J? If so, looks like neckline is sloping slightly upward and has already been broken, though not convincingly.
Maybe this is a good time to try that strategy of setting buy stops after the price moves down so they trigger when it turns back up … only problem is knowing how much room to give it so as not to get whipsawed. Good day to experiment though.
I’m conservatively getting leaders now at .25:1 leverage.
I will start trying to hold my longs past just the other side of the 200 ema. I believe fundamental sentiment is going to be long so we need to take full advantage of up trends. So get your orders in on this down trend dip and be prepared to hold for a while and not scalp your money makers at the bottom.
212.76 may be as close as we get. She seems to be heading back up.
Were you short GJ into 212.80’s from 215.50’s Andrew?

I [B]should[/B] have bought some NU at .74 I knew it. I would be up pips and up interest. I still am not really in too deep on NJ. I am scalping a few but I am in this one for the long haul until I can beef up my account.

Hey 4xStar,
I emailed that excel sheet to you. If it doesn’t get to you, just tell me and I’ll email it again. You can put in the leverage, acct size, spacing between orders, lot size, and price you start your loss leader. It’ll show the margin held for each lot, the total unrealized profit at that price, and the total of the unrealized profit and how much is held on margin for your lots. If it’s bigger than the account size it displays “TMTH!!!” in honor of RRAM. If you think of any other cool ideas to put on it but don’t know how to do it, holler and surely between all of us we can figure it out.
I just realized that everybody was real creative with their screen names. I just used my last name then threw the debonair/dangerous 007 james bond thing on there to sound more like a dork.
I know, I know. Not long after posting that I backslid and bagged some profits. Is there a 12 step program I can attend.

I like it.
What’s the Ichy Wichy analysis for The Hillary?
Keeping a close eye on all Yen crosses - just about every one of them (with the exception of N/J, A/J and CHF/JPY) are double bottoming. I’m not sure if a reversal is in the offing, or if one is whether we’d see it until Europe anyway, but it’s worthy of taking notice in case the pattern evolves.
Also noteworthy here is that price is finding support on the Guppy @ the 38.2% retracement level (range: last week’s low at 208.02 to this week’s high @ 215.88) @ 212.87.
Still bullish, but some mixed: on the 3H, price is above the cloud, but has crossed below Kijun Sen (weakly bearish); Tenkan Sen has also top down crossed Kijun (weakly bearish). The kumo here is angled steeply upward (from last week’s move from 208-214) and is very thick, which provides a good support field. Chikou Span is even with price 26 periods (78 hours) ago (neutral). On the daily, there is also a mixed bullish reading. The guidance offered up by the chart then is that anything more than a deftly handled day traded short would be ill-advised.
Thanks Andrew. I will deftly keep an eye on my margin and not get TMTH.
A couple things worry me about downside potential though at the daily level.
Unless something happens between now and 0000 ET, the Guppy is completing a bearish engulfing candle that will definitely take in yesterday’s up candle - a close much below 213 consumes the two previous candles as well. No confirmation until tomorrow, but El Toreador may continue the rampage then.
Similarly, USD/JPY has a tweezer top forming with identical highs from yesterday and today @ 107.98. Also indicative of a top.
Next areas of interest: 212.23 (also 208-214 fib fan speed line support here), 211.95, 211.79, and then back to 211.02.
