Choccy,

I don't have a cable target although I've got my eye on around 1.1930 on Euro Dollar as support. Doesn't look as though she'll see that level on this leg down though. There's always manana I suppose.

Looks like cable's bottomed now for today. A few more pips up and I'll be out.

Can't say I'm comfortable long for long, Hils.

I've just the place, ten four - next to my duck collection.

chocolat - 31 Oct 2005 21:46 - 4636 of 11056

Fed rate hike a foregone conclusion

chocolat - 01 Nov 2005 08:13 - 4637 of 11056

I have around 1.7750 target - what say you ten four?

mg - 01 Nov 2005 08:20 - 4638 of 11056

chocs
That would be a good target but I've got to get some work done before this afternoon - then off on my travels for the next few days. So I've closed out @ 1.7720 - for +25, +35 = +60 which is another nice positive close. Need to keep this up. 60 to 70 points a day (every day) will definitely make mg a happy boy.

BTW my little lines would give a bit more than 7750 - more like 7770 actually.

Keep those Steel Balls swinging ;)

So much for FED raising rates - Cable hardly flickered - talk about anticipation - I thought I was the only one who traded the trend a day before it happened :)

Looks as if my open long position is active - from 1.7615. Think I'll leave it with a 50 point stop - if that one goes I've got another one set to trigger at 1.7520.

C y'all the week after next - day jobbing for a change ;(

chocolat - 01 Nov 2005 19:50 - 4640 of 11056

Hey snaperoonie ten four. Reversed long there this afternoon. Got home just after 7 and forgot the decorator was coming - only just managed to have a look!

Btw - missed 1.7720 this morning as I got called away straight after posting. Gave it up at 1.7695 after the umpteenth try to get above 1.77.

Nice one ;)

chocolat - 02 Nov 2005 12:00 - 4641 of 11056

Been trading cable up and down in its current little downtrend channel. But I have a shallow support line along the lows from 12 October that crossed through the channel yesterday afternoon. Currently long at 1.7628. It's got to break out one way or the other soon :S

chocolat - 02 Nov 2005 16:05 - 4642 of 11056

Yip - that's a breakout :)

mg - 03 Nov 2005 07:44 - 4643 of 11056

Just a quickie to say that as well as my 1.7615 long opening yesterday I left another to open if it reached 17630 - and it did :)

Closed them last night when I got in @ 1.7760 :)))))))))))

Might take a look later this afternoon - off up to Liverpool - so must dash

iqubal - 03 Nov 2005 11:34 - 4644 of 11056

Is ther any way we can prevent the acidic forex fairy character from appearing every time we open this thread

hilary - 03 Nov 2005 12:42 - 4645 of 11056

I've removed the Fairy just for you, iqubal, and I'll now look forwards to reading your future contributions on this thread.

MightyMicro - 03 Nov 2005 16:51 - 4646 of 11056

Hil: Oi! Wot no fairy! Next thing we know, Chelsea will lose to some Spanish outfit.

Iqubal -- there is an alternative solution to your problem -- the Fairy only appears to those using Internet Explorer -- those using FireFox or Opera browsers won't see him.

chocolat - 03 Nov 2005 21:41 - 4647 of 11056

Oh 'eck.
*Poof* and he's done one without so much as a cheerio :(

MightyMicro - 03 Nov 2005 22:25 - 4648 of 11056

Er, less of the *Poof*, please, I'm not that kind of Fairy . . .

chocolat - 04 Nov 2005 01:35 - 4649 of 11056

Ha



Looks like I'm back to washing my own pots again.

Bobcolby - 04 Nov 2005 09:35 - 4650 of 11056

I am off on holiday to Tunisia for a week. Laptops are banned by a higher authority.

Happy trading everybody

STORMCALLER - 05 Nov 2005 23:35 - 4651 of 11056

Sterling work and much burning of midnight oil this week has restored the integrity of my pet theory, "It is not possible to make a profit on cable from a terminal in my vicinity"
I now believe I have a higher authority on board for this one, called the fall from the Friday rate spike correctly, tried to place the short and lost my connection, by the time I got it back cable was close to it's afternoon low....go figure..:-)

Little opportunity to trade next week, so should be a cheap week...lol

Sue 42 - 07 Nov 2005 07:44 - 4652 of 11056

Very exciting at the w/e - checked my emails & had 4 margin calls fom CMC saying my account was 92,000 in the red! They had put in a cable price of 0.6!

The messages have all gone today! but it got the old heart racing!

chocolat - 07 Nov 2005 14:50 - 4653 of 11056
