Hello everyone, Hope you all have a Great New Year. I don't really trade cable much anymore- its not the same beast. While its duck hunting season cable just bounces around like a decoy. The old saying that cables been 1.60 since the king died is as ...

I tend to use the charts in two ways one I look for pairs at extreme readings over 70% as points where the retailers will give up on their losses so if the percentage starts to fall I will look for reversals on charts. The second way is to see ...

Retailers have unsurprisingly managed to get themselves neutral on cable thanks to the stop hunts late last week. Price will probably have a small range Monday. My preference would be to sell early if price opens higher, as cable likes to test lows ...

thought I'd stop by and say hello. Summer here and price is in its usual doldrum stage very slow movement in small ranges so no point in trying to forcast anything longterm. Retailers positions have been very light, with retailers flipping between ...

Price moving as expected- these are very typical moves market makes during a weekend following news. i still prefer sells into London close and look for a buy after that, but market gets tricky so always need to keep a small stop. Like I say cable ...

Typical friday price action, price breaks out to one side and continues in that direction. Normally expect a pullback to test the breakout and cable has a tendency to make its low on a Monday. So would like to sell a gap up on cable during Asia, but ...

I mentioned how bad the retail traders are at cable. So this chart should be no surprise. While they are long I will only look for shorts.

it is a struggle to write anything enlightening about cables price action. retailers are still just about neutral- they bought above 1.57 and sold around 1.5660. Don't really see any great entry but then cable never leads moves, so easier to wait ...

Retail positoning is now slightly bullish on cable, that combined with bearish chart formations means I will continue looking for sells- since I will only trade in the opposite direction of the punters when it comes to cable since most cable traders ...

not losses- almost £800 profit for the day- just sad I caught no big fish they kept jumping off the hook.

Done for the week- choppy price action today keeps getting me stoppped out so taking my small winnings and going to have a beer. Good luck for those still in there. all the trades today were based on one thing doing opposite of the retailers, for ...

Retail positoning has been neutral all week, which why we have a up and down market with no real trend. Retailers are now slightly long cable and so am currently short for 1.5650 area, but a trade with a small stop.Same with euro short for a few.

Retail are neutral on pound,so like many here would expect no real direction on the pound and think euro a better play next week. But one interesting chart is aud/jpy. The retailers have been long this the entire fall. Am expecting them to start ...

The problem with banks is that COT data is compiled on Tuesday and released Friday so its not always useful. Banks technical reports are mostly useless with entry points too far from market price, and as with Goldman you were never trust any ...

Interesting candle on the daily for Friday of a small bodied candle outside the bollinger band. Indication of an exhaustion move if the folowing candle closes inside the bands,but will have to see how Monday finishes. Retailers have got themselves ...

Retailers continue buying cable having sold it all the way up to 1.63. Until they decide its time to short I still look for sells. One day the punters might get it right, one day.

Current retail positioning is still bearish cable, with traders selling the break of 1.59. Current low around 200 day ema. My bias to scalp long near 1.59 with a stop below todays low if the retailers continue selling cable around this level with a ...

Everyone likes to view their own charts with their prefered technical studies. I just point out how the market sentiment is a tool which can back up your trading decisions. Markets move in the direction that causes the most pain to the most people. ...

Thank you for the compliments. I try not to post too much since its can be confusing for newer traders. Current retail positioning on cable still shows the novices are going long cable as price moves in the opposite direction, while that trend ...

Have been watching the gbp crosses. As they were signaling extreme positoning in gbp of retailers being long eur/gbp and short gbp/chf. I use their sentiment to guage possible turns in market. we see that they are starting to be more bullish on gbp. ...
