I wondering why the euro fell out of bed and the pound hasn't moved much.. I'm interested to hear your perspective CJ.

Cyprus government just started applying a 6.5% "tax" on all bank savings accounts, which started a panic over the weekend with cypriots draining all the bank ATMs to get their cash out. Because the news broke over the weekend, it wasn't priced in yet (except for those how knew and positioned short euro on friday night - not me I'm afraid - although EU did seem ripe to sell the rally.) I expect EUR will take a long time to close the gap. Other currencies gapped down but rebounded fast and will probably close the gap because their fundamentals aren't really affected.

CJ Okay that makes sense, we lose a few prediction lines but rather that then trying to force it to work by drawing lines where it shouldnt be. Now we just need to wait to see if its starting off bearish or bullish I guess.

Hi Gerry, Good to see you found the thread and welcome aboard. Nothing wrong with closing out the end of the week...I'm sure there are plenty out there today that wished they had on Friday. I was going to carry and then changed my mind so I did well...still had a few open and they pretty well balanced out. Keep an eye on the hen house and good luck this week! CJ

<snip> A small one, just for fun! </snip> Hi Edi. Thanks for posting your stuff, you seem to know what you are doing. Would you mind annotating your charts a little in terms of CJ's approach (if indeed you are using CJ's approach to take your trades). Thanks Mark

Would you mind annotating your charts a little in terms of CJ's approach (if indeed you are using CJ's approach to take your trades). Thanks Mark Hi Mark I would like to Enter where CJ tells us... sometimes, when I'm at the Screen and I see building up a Pinbar then I enter where "El Capitan" says. But when there is no such Entry (or I don't see it but it would be there) I enter on Breakouts. What I try to do is to "read the Candles", when does PA stop to fall/climb, when apear Wicks on wich Levels? Not realy something special. For me AUDCAD is pushing higher, I try to look on those Charts 15, 60, 240, Daily and Weekly and then decide what to do. On the Daily you see to long Wicks (Up and Down) this is for me the Battle-Zone where the Big ones decide for Long or Short. I try it on the Long side... (Sorry my english is to bad for long explanations...) Cheers Edi

Edi A small one, just for fun! Edi Why Did I enter There? The First Candle openend the Gap, then PA started to climb and came back to this Level. Then on the 15' Chart these two Candles showed the Wick on the lower Side. Those Wick tell me that the Crowd was buing at this Level. That's wy I entered there. SL @ BE. Edi
