Hi mob,

When practising to read levels, cycles (as CJ taught them), I used to put Fibs on retracements just to gauge depth of pullbacks. 61.8 was a common one that was hit. But there were quite a few hits on a Fibo no that wasn't on the default Fib tool. So I googled all the Fib numbers after 61.8 and tried them until I came across 73.6, and it fitted like a glove on most retracements I came across on different TFs. Have used it ever since

:D

I was USD short from earlier this week. Closed all of them by late Wednesday when they starting giving some 'vybe' like the short plan had been cancelled [ movements in Gold, EURUSD, USDSEK, USDJPY, EURJPY... to me look a bit 'off' ]

Seems to me that a brief USD bull run may be in the cards, before short is resumed
( @NFP: won't be a surprise if price is first spiked down on the USDs, then moved up quickly, forming a pin... )

I could be wrong ... but have a look at these, lemme know what you think...

Edit:
# USDCHF is showing signs of turning to longs too...
# If EJ turns, EU will turn too (they've been moving together). Have closed my EU longs

Hi, Dudest. I wanted to ask why you decided that E/J should go up? I have counted 2 levels down, was expecting the 3rd. Is it a retrace to the 1st level or I counted them wrong? Thanks for answer in advance.
Received a couple of PMs as well asking what was the deal with EURJPY longs ! [ strange coz had posted up some charts before the trades + the latest a-b-c hunt ]

I don't think you counted wrong. There seems to be a fluid game going on at the moment. When I get a chance, will post up a chart with my thoughts

PS: FWIW, I think right now might be a good time to short EJ, followed by longs around 129.20 area [ my 2 cents ]

Cheers

My take on EURJPY ( NB: it's moving very similar to EURUSD )

PS: My bet for today's NFP is net long on the USD. TSBI

* TSBI: this should be interesting :smile:
Understatement of the week!!!!

Biggest market open + high impact news + the other markets on holiday = crazy volatility spikes ( large spread widening )

Prime lesson in liquidity workings

Hi!

Would You guys count this pink area as 1 or 2 pushes? When I'm looking at the next push it seems like it's 1 push. Just want to make sure.

Edit: That's EU M30
