The Trader's Arms - Now Open for Business

:smiley:

Hey, as long as it doesn’t happen in front of the kids, it’s all good in my house LOL !!:smiley:

Can’t wait to find Mr Carter later. The headline on the news section of my trading platform is “Australian Dollar Top Performer of the day”. I hope last night’s AU short, and the 3 litres of cider, where not too cruel to him.

On the subject of later, better get my washing done for tonight, home alone just now as the rest of the HoG family are all in Spain, so better tidy round a bit so I can sit and watch rubbish on youtube later, I mean, study the charts to improve my trading, yeah… that was it !!

I had also got short on the AU last night. When this thing decides to drop it better drop hard just so I can break even lol. I think I might have survived the high today. Still have an hour at work till I find out.

Just found this, may be a bit long, you may have seen it before,

So true my friend

hey RC I decided to pull the old high low template out of mothballs. Take a look at USD/CHF weekly and monthly. That should be a good short don’t you think?

Hi Mike nice to see your still posting here on BP… my, we go back a way and then some! LOL!!!

USD/CHF channel on the daily is very tight looking at 2 LWMA high/low. 2 DNC looks better though (high 9713 and low 9579 and median 9647). I’d say looking to weekly, she had a final push still left in her, not much but some. Then I think your right, got to correct off that high.

My AU off weekly has been in distribution on the 4h but looks like its running out of steam and sooner rather than later that floors got to give way… currently at 16 pips.

No bad thing pulling the ‘old’ system out of mothballs… I’ve had 16 straight wins in a row off daily and weekly entries this past two weeks. On balance having tried just about every ‘system’ I figure I’ll keep with the old one. :60:

Well Hog, all this dog talk I thought was irrelevant to me… havn’t had a dog in decades. Seems the wife and eldest daughter have been hatching a plan for months. Picked the wife up from work only to be confronted with a ****zu puppy… I kid you not! Its a conspiracy theory right here on BP? :smiley: ‘Mogwith’ the resident cat was less than impressed, as was I.

Entered long @ 5462 on GU… don’t see this being violated in the next few days. Probable longer upmove by my reckoning?

Just means the wives are reading. Mrs Bobmaninc I am not pissed you got a 40 freaking pound boxer/pitt. Will make good target practice umm I mean addition to the family :21:. Lol enjoy my dog has no personality at all. Loves everyone but will not let me in my own house. I am starting to think she had intentions here that I was not aware of.

Actually I’m glad for the company of the dog right now. Mrs HoG and the HoGettes still in Spain and I have to admit I’ve missed the noise and general cafuffle that goes along with a family. I guess you just get “programmed” into it without even realising it.

Cabin fever has set in a little. Had an argument with the microwave last night. Bloody thing is way too temperamental. Still not talking to the Hoover after it blew instead of sucked ( no jokes please, there may be children reading) on Sunday.

And don’t even get me started on the iron, just wait til Mrs HoG discovers the iron has burnt a pair of her pyjama bottoms, boy is it in trouble.

As for trading, tempted for a long EU today, but it’s hard to convince myself to do it in the middle of such a down move of late. Actually spending a lot of time reading recently ( now there’s a thing I never thought I’d hear myself say. Downloaded a few books and ying to work my way through them, but boy it’s hard. Why don’t people who write books use more pop ups instead of so many words???

I understand why my husband lives with a pair of jeans, four pairs of jocks and three Tshirts through out the time I am gone. The man can live in a pair of jeans for months on end!
.
Not to mention eat out of the same bowl every night. Just that one bowl and one spoon by the kitchen sink. I always thought it was him regressing to his childhood days where he always had dogs around the farm.

Guess I really should be thanking him on sparing the hoover, the Iron and not to mention the microwave!.

Never know what you will learn here at Babypips! :smiley:

I just think men are more primal than women Niki. Left to our own devices, we invariably revert to “survival” mode. One knife ( not essential ), one fork ( not essential ), one bowl ( not essential but recommended ), one pair of jeans ( highly recommended ), TV ( a must ) Beer ( a bonus ) and the local take-away shop phone number ( absolutely essential ). The need to know if our bums look big in our one and only pair of jeans ( not even a consideration )

HoG at home on his own:

That dog looks waaaaaaaaay too organised to be me PB LOL!!

Hog… that long EU you mentioned… entered tonight @ 2250.

What are you thinking for GU tonight/tomorrow RC?

Already in the trade Scooby… entered long off 5464. :5:

Ya, that’s what I figured, especially with the long on EU. That’s a pretty good entry though! I have been shorting the resistance but was thinking a break to the upside possible soon. Tonight will decide if I’m going long or short though.

I have a buy limit in the E/U at 1.2214 let’s see if price goes to that level, we are approaching strong daily support :54:

You think it will hit 2214 Yunny? As they say,‘anything can and will happen’ but I have twin confirmation to go long off 2233.
