well that didnt play out to the way i wanted it! oops. ah well. win some lose some.
Shorting USDCHF with a stop around .90
Not really feeling it but im in it so lets hope i wake up and it hits my limit.
Calling it quits for the day. Gnight all! chat in the morning.

looks good. What GMT shift are you using? I change mine based on the forex market time zone.
Closed it. 60pips is good for me.
went long on AUDUSD here at .9725. looking to get out around .979-9800
i think you will see a lot of selling come back in around .98-983
thats a tough one Jav. the price is on the L3 long line with the daily pivot right on it as well. normally when that comes into play I go long. same with the H3 shorts line and whenthe pivot it right on it together. the kicker is the weak looking gartley that formed.
using the -4shift i would wait and see if it goes higher before going short but thats just me. i coudl be wrong and it could drop but with it sitting on the long bar? hmmmm tough call.
generally that pair i tend to stick to a long position because of the whole CHF news and the now bullish outlook with USD
thats turning out nicely. I am really loving this Camarilla / Harmonic setting i have going.
my audusd short is looking nice too. up 60pips. just not sure where to get out on that one
anyone up for an EU short? 1.35889 down to 1.351
will look to short at audusd 9800 and 9830 - stop 9885
30min and 1 hr
yes, that one played out nicely. its heading back up to the H3 line again. tempted to short it again but with the pivot right on the L3 long andit already hitting it this morning. I am inclined to think it will go much higher.
currently in a AUDUSD short right now. trying to figure out when to get out but seeing the pips i already have make it hard not to close :)
totaly off tpic. Bases loaded. Chase Utley is up with one out. Brave needs to win to get into post season. Lets go phillies!!!!!!
Games tied 3-3 top of 9th
so far so good up 20pips and its under the 21 SMA and EMA. life is good!!
i would be happy with 1.028 to 1.03
grab the camarilla indy from the drop box we setup and throw it into your mt4. all you have to do is make sure you set the GMTshift to the correct setting. i set mine to whatever my broker is listed at. FXCM uses UTC-4:00 so i just go with that and its always spot on.
i only follow the camarilla setup when looking for entries and exits. its almost a no brainer if all you want to do it get a couple pips and move on.
right now the EU is sitting on that long line but im not feeling it.
i was messing around. i lost a little on that stupid audusd long. not trading anything else outside of the EURCHF right now.
Any takers on a EURUSD long? :)
Good plan. I never trade UJ. It moves way to slow for me. I like to get in and out when possible.
This AUDUSD gartley is not making me want to jump in just yet.
short looks good around 7675 simple
hahaha thanks, there goes my complex!
i tried it but the button is grayed out when i hit submit! all good. i can wait. im sure work of mouth will do the trick until i can get it posted at the top
And simple. I am sure you have a million and one templates, indys and docs. SO please feel free to create and add whatever you want inside that drop box. i believe i sent you the login creds. would love to see what you have to throw in there
to that. if everyone wants to create a folder and call it your name so we can see who is adding things to the lists that is one idea we may want to try. or create a text doc on the root of the folder and keep a journal as to what has been added
tells me i need to wait 48 hours in order to add my post to the sticky at the top.
AUDNZD and EURNZD
They were top secret at one point in time :) hahaha
love trading them. they dont fall off the planet for no reason, in either direction.
currently shorting AN for a little ride. up about 15pips
my AUDUSD long is in a hole right now. not cool.
when you get a chance check the dropbox we have (haha). i added a ton of fib books in the folder you created with the excel doc. do some reading
well you can short AUDNZD with me. i think that should turn out to be a easy one. spread is only .7 for some reason. my stop is set to 1.26350 fom its current price. either it hits the pivot or back down to 1.255
still have time. tick tick tick
Same here. about to post my GBPUSD trade in one minute
i think this will be very useful for the board. i see a lot of potential for trading and cool stuff to exchange for all of us. i want to give it out to everyone but rather not post the password and creds for any free loathing drive by gets it and deletes our stuff. only want to hand out to peopel we know who use the board all the time and who will actually contribute to the cause
The Simplegreen Room's Forex Fileshare Dropbox
Had a chat with Simplegreen this morning and I wanted to share the following with you guys.
For the longest time I have been trying to figure out a way to share books, files, indicators, templates, trade ideas, etc. Basically anything related to Forex and the Stock Market. Over time I have found it be difficult to always have to coordinate with friends and exchange emails and send files back in forth. Lately I have been using Dropbox to share all of these things in a group setting. How it works? I setup a dropbox account, share the user credentials and password to login. Once you login you can see all of my files and folders and everyone that is included has the ability to add and exchange aklong with everyone else.
After speaking with Simplegreen about this solution I think it is something that we all can use and benefit from. It already has an abundant amount of forex books and pdfs. Along with forex software, indicators and a ton of templates. There are trade ideas and charts saved from previous trades and a bunch of their little things. The only rules I would like to put in place is the content. I have absolutely no problem with everyone adding and creating new folders but I would like to keep it strictly related to forex and the markets that we love to trade.
Of course there is a folder of cooking recipes that I have in there. A buddy and I like to exchange food ideas and knowing we had someone on the board who loves roadkill I couldn’t help but leave that folder included!! ?
SO to sum it up I would like extend this offer to all the regulars who use this board all the time who would like to just login and check it out. See if it is something you would like to use and see if it is something that can help us along the way.
Here is how it works:
• You will need to goto www.dropbox.com and download the windows client for your desktop. It’s a very small and simple install package that will put a icon on your desktop. (being that I am a Information Technology engineer I can assure you it is safe to install)
• Once its installed you will need to provide existing credentials. Instead of posting the email address, username and password associated with this account If you could PM me I would be glad to hand it over to you and explain the process or any questions you have.
• Once you login you will see a folder with about (currently) 12 folders listed. I tried to categorize them into what they are used for.
o By all means PLEASE feel free to add files and folders that are appropriate to the cause. I only ask that you don’t delete files that you did not add in the first place.
• One other nice feature is you can use this service straight from the website (via Firefox, Chrome or IE). All you need to do is go to http://www.dropbox.com and click on the Login button on the top right.
• The only caveat to all this is the service is free and has a 2GB limit for file size. If this really kicks off like I hope it does and we really start creating a huge index full of information I would be happy to purchase and upgrade to the 10GB size limit, but it is a $10 a month subscription fee. But first lets see how we do with the free 2gb size. Most of the files we put in there are relatively small anyways so I am sure we will be able to use the 2GB for a long time. But that could change quickly.
To sum this up. I really think this will be a useful tool and addition to the already amazing simplegreen room and its daily members. I have found using this with two of my other traders to be a huge asset in regards to knowledge, software and anything related to the Forex market. Along with Twitter. Both can make a powerful tool and fun way to trade the market.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to hit me up. If you want to login and checkout the dropbox just let me know and I will give you the credientials. It is currently all configured and ready to go.
PS – feel free to add to the recipes folder. Roadkill welcome!!!
Thank you,
RC
Again, thank you very much. I really look forward to contributing and making new friends!
I spoke with simple this morning about a potentially new and exciting feature we all can share and use here on the simplegreen room which will provide an abundant amount of forex and market related information and tools.
More to come....
trust me. I want to short this like its no other. I sitll think were gonna see lows arounf .90 and then who knows what from there BUT check out the weekly chart. unless it falls apart right now it looks like that weekly candle may turn bullish
The daily looks like it is poisted to at least test the lower end of the daily fib retrace around the 38% mark which would be 1.005 or soo? that also marks the H5 target on my chart and current price action is sitting in the breakout zone. normally that means more north action. have a look
But your right. Ultimately I think this is going to tank. just think we need a small retrace no that daily chart and right now its in no mans land
Morning board
Went long this morning on USDCAD. Nice little hammer on the 4hr chart. tail hit the 21day SMA and right on the L3 long line. went long on that line. Normally i close when it hits the H3 short but i think this may be a nice run up and maybe retouch the H5 target and retest earlier highs. Here is my chart.
you really need to show me how you use this setup you are talking about. would love to see it in action.
whenever you get a chance, Git.
I dont trade gartleys all that much. Its my own fault for not fully understanding all the ratios and lines all over the chart but my wave count on AU, along with fibs places on the daily and weekly make me think the same thing. The daily charts fid ranges from as low as 1.005 to as high as 1.0325 or so.
would love to close it and open a long right here and now but a chicken :)
sitting here wondering what to trade and looking for setups on random pairs. nothing really standing out at me other than
EURCHF, AUDCHF and EURAUD. All Longs
