was the ryanair order 4yds

Looks like the 1:30's put the dollar under pressure

shrted the spike @38 covered half @ 21

balance in @ 18.:)

Good stuff, do you leave limits in or just keeping your beady eye on the action

beady eye jeff iam in front of screen all day but i popped out for a coffee and just sat down as it went thru 38..had to quickly go out again so just banked profit,,but my gut felt we wud retest the fig....
just scalping all day long jeff..cable as u know u get good moves lots of overreaction and chances to nip in for a quick 20...just trying not to overtrade....

Should have been posting on this thread - instead of the perverts on the FTSE/DAX. Been trading quite well today. Wonder if my latest stab - short from 141 is the straw that did whatever it does on the camel's back. Fingers crossed.

mg been following u on the thread got caught sgrt@ 38 but doubled@ 58 and back @ 32..stg does look strong here must adint it caguth me by surprise

14:41 GBP/USD: 1.9150 Option Barrier Erased - Support at 1.9124] London,
February 25: Cable has finally erased the exotic option barrier at 1.9150, with
triggered stops from the trigger level propelling the rate to a new eight-week
peak of 1.9161.
The subsequent retreat has met support at 1.9124 (pre-UK Q4 GDP London
morning high). Sub-1.9124 prop points are located at 1.9113/18 (1.9118 was the
Asian session high), and 1.9100. --Robert.howard@thomson.com

Finally back to where I was comfy on Monday/Tuesday...long!
It was worth taking the abuse this morning, at least cable finally made its mind up (just like any good girlie). Got home to find my short at 19156 had kicked in, but of course I missed the drop. Reversed at 160 (could've had 140, but my darling screen froze) Not sure I'll hang in over the weekend though.

Having at last managed to find someone to rob as a means of re-funding my broken account, and finally got a cable trade on I liked, 40 point 1 second spike tried to take me out, sly little bastard, however, reflexes of a cobra (and a huge dose of luck) saved trade, phew! Giving up for tonight with +50 stop on.
As a newcomer to this game, how the f**k can you leave sensible stops or OCO's on open trades with that kind of spike? help please!
(Yes I know I left one in, but I am seeing stars so need some shut-eye, and it is on the plus side, which is a rarity for me!)

morning ken :-)

Good morning
Went long last night at 1.9175, just closed for +50 so good start to the week.
