The hard bounce @ 2775 occurred overnight on the FX EURO but didnt hold. It has been trying to go lower most of the night. If it breaks 2770 is should retest 2750.



We may be stuck in a range all day. Buy above 2802. Sell below 2770

For a range day, don't you mean the reverse? Sell 2802 buy 2770?

Sorry, should have clarified. Buy on the breakout above 2802 with a target of 2820. Sell the breakout below 2770 with a target of 2755.

I have had zero luck in my trading career trading range bound days. For me its better to wait for the breakout.

I bought the breakout out of the channel. +17 I may have sold too soon. Upon looking at this I need to develop an ATM strategy which has a trailing stop for these types of breakouts.

Entered into a second trade on the rally @ 2831. Original target was 2841 but the rally seemed to be stuck. Ended up+3. .

These rallies tend to breakdown quickly so I err'ed on the side of caution- dont be greedy and exit with a profit.

Order placed to sell 12796 Target 12708 Stop 12896 (for now) ...it will be reduced.

Basis of trade ...drawn line in the sand price over extended 200 pips above 50 ema.Not many opportunites for this to happen, but when it does,it goes well.

Sorry no chart, as I have desk top dedicated for trading and to provide chart would have to set up a demo account on this computer. I am not confident enough to 'transfer' files and send....not my"forte".

Trader

50 ema 4 hour chart

Well...I got my butt kicked hard here .

Stopped 12880.

Friday night covered 12812 ...re opened 12795....got very little 'joy' from this trade.

Given same conditions , I will do exactly the same trade as it is a very high percentage trade.

All things being equal I'd have to agree with your statement @Family Trader, with two exceptions, the timing of the Constitutional Court ruling and the extreme highs the market is/was sitting on. I've learned the hard way that politics will trump fundamentals and technical analysis everytime. Since price poked it's head above 1.2400 and closed there, the skuttlebutt has been a run to 1.3000. I believe the markets failure to pull back and trade at 1.2750 was the full speed ahead indication. I also believe many traders thought this morning's court ruling would provide the accelerant to propel the Euro into the stratosphere, and maybe it will, but the restrictions and conditions imposed by the high court may have caused (large) traders to take pause and actually read the ruling before committing to or taking their large positions. I'm sure more than a few traders were shaken out of their longs during the overnight session and are now faced with the decision to buy into the highs or wait for a wiggle and try to pick a bottom. That wiggle along with bottom fishing might keep prices under 1.2900 and cause a consolidation within the range of this mornings move. Lastly, there's the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy decision on Thursday (tomorrow), since I'm not an economist and have only a 9th grade education I rely mainly on my Ouija Board, and it says if traders want to see 1.3000 today is their best chance.

While I agree with you about taking the same trade, I would still ask the question why did it fail? Can you add something to you trade criteria which would filter out this trade next time?

No , not really as I do not 'fade'.Basically,all or nothingand I start with a single contract. It goes very well most of the time.

Currently waiting to sell at 12927..I missed it earlier as I was asleep...same profit goals,stops but additional contract.
