    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    This morning: I am looking to go long on the Cable and fiber: Entry levels for Cable (as well as SMT divergence): Fiber - same sort of idea:

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Update: Entered short on Cable @ 1.5240. Closed for +16 pips. Not quite at my goal, but it looks like we hit an order b lock with the news and reversed pretty thoroughly. I'm going to get some sleep and hopefully catch something in New York!

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Price didn't retrace as high as I wanted it to last night. I'm not that sad. Tonight's plan: Short the Cable. Reasoning: Market maker sell profile/generally short. Stops above previous highs (raid this LO?) Going for my usual 30 pips. Also - on the EUR/USD: Whiplash price action...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    So, on the Euro - the stops below Wed/Thurs low were swept - price has moved upward. I am expecting price to be bullish this morning, if at least to fill in that giant void right above where price is at: Also, I see bullish divergence on the cable on the 4h chart: Lastly - this is what I...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    So, I'm just doing a basic overview for the week - we had 2 large moves over the past few weeks leaving price a lot of gaps to fill. On the cable specifically: I am thinking that price is going to attempt to fill the gap (box A) a little more. I'm thinking there will be a move Lower into...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    I didn't even think of just throwing img tags around it. I'll keep that in mind! Also - keep in mind I am doing 30 pip scalps! I'm not looking to get in at the low or high of the day, just at areas of profitable and probable bounces! If I catch a big move, then I'll take more, but my real...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    So, it looks like 1.5110 was the order on the Cable for today. Next time!

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Good morning! So, I'm going to give this Trading View thing a shot - see if it makes my explanations any easier or clearer: https://www.tradingview.com/x/tsCBWdrX/ This is my basic expectation for the day on the cable. A stop raid on the stops below 1.5065, moving up to the breaker/bearish...

    ICT Forexmas 2014 / Market Maker Series

    It was so painful I didn't even look at the markets for pretty much all of 2014.

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Oh yeah - counter trend trades I won't hold, but this one was too juicy to give up!

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    30 pips/trade, so 1.5181 or so

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Update: Went short a 1.5211 - price came back and stopped me out at +1 pips. Took another short (same level) - closed out at 1.5193 for + 8 pips. Price wasn't breaking the 1.5190 level like I was looking for, so I figured I'd close the trade early before things went bad for me. Update #2...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Plan for tonight: SHORT THE CABLE AT OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE 1.5890 LEVEL. See those three tops on a 15m chart? Lots of stops there. Likely to be raided. Order blocks at 1.5200 and 1.5210. Also an OTE at 1.5200. Overall? Even if I lose this trade, I'll be happy. It looks pretty solid to me.

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Update: I was half-right. Price did make a very nice bounce today, but not where I expected it to - 1.5080 was the buy instead. I should have stayed up just a little bit later! As it stands, I am now up 25 pips so far this week. No complaints.

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    I BET YOU THOUGHT I FORGOT ABOUT THIS! I DIDN'T! Things are looking to be bullish (at least in the near term) - long term support has been reached on both the Cable and Fiber (although I would like the Fiber to dip just slightly lower - down to around 1.7420 or so). Gonna keep the trades...

    Inner Circle Trader Notes

    I might be a few months late in responding to this, but I'm still here! Still making a go of it! It's just... life has been getting in the way a bit. Also - those are some names I haven't heard in a LONG time.

    Who's Who

    I'm crushed to hear about your mother-in-law's cancer - it's an absolutely horrible thing, and I want you to know I'm sending well wishes to your whole family. I've heard from my girlfriend (who has spent the last 6 months or so working in the Oncology ward in our local hospital) the horrors of...

    I knew it! Thanks for the confirming my bias ;)

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    I said some overly critical things about Michael in the chat room last night - venting, had to get it off my chest, yadda yadda. I take it all back. All of it. I just spent a couple hours this morning working on my order block analysis and it all makes sense now and I'm seeing dollar signs...

    $2,500 - $1,000,000

    Update: No orders last night or this morning. 1.5670 on the cable was not really an option, and it didn't reach 1.5720/40 until just recently. Maybe tonight I'll grab a short in the cable, we'll see what my analysis says.
