To detail the trade I was long from 144.28 and was confident 145.25 would be seen with t a ceiling of EITHER 145.50 or 145.60 on over-reach.  Failed to take the money around 145.40 to be safe, endured the pullback, loaded up elsewhere in conjunction with the AudUsd positioning I mentioned coming into the NY session so was just fine but that is quite a trim on gains by being impatient and not reacting aggressively enough in the same opera.

If you are not swimming in money precision is important.  I hope this helps novices or anyone else for me to share my perspective as a former CEO of an investment firm.  None of us are perfect and all of us face the same market.

I was reminded today to go with your instinct if it is based on experience as I almost blew a very strong gain in UsdJpy.  I am confident those of you who observe my posts recognize how precise I can be, this time fortunately it was not a loss but a sound trimming of the tree of a gain.  I remain long UsdJpy into Asia (from pre-US GDP-which was a bit aggressive) but see a horizon for that in the future, not necessarily tonight in the Asian session.

In short, a pullback on the longs was stickier than usual and went the distance.  Unless you are taking a position and if you are trading session to session you take the money when your parameters are met and incorporate patience for the market to settle for another shot of the basketball.

I hope commenting on trading acumen is helpful.

JP- your input helped once again as always.

Just for the forum archives:;

GBPUSD low was 1.3145 vs my earlier post

key support is the former 1.3144 2024 high/breakout level.

US500 4 HOUR CHART – RECORD HIGH BACK ON THE RADAR?

Nvidia earnings inspired USS500 drop did not go far enough and bounce has the record 5673 high back on the radar.

To expose it, 5651 would need to become support.

Looking ahead, I read that sept is normally a seasonal weak month for stocks. Let;s see if the prospect of a Fed rate cut makes this a non-typical month?

Now you see how a liquidating market works

EURUSD => Breaks 1.1071 (stops) => 1.1055 => 1.1073

By the way USDJPY 145.50 capped the upside again

The last week of August is usually one where the big guys start setting up for the post-summer market.

This time it seems more a matter of squeezing USD shorts and liquidating rathen than new positioning.

EURUSD 4h

Resistances : 1.10900, 1.11200 & 1.11500

Supports : 1.10500, 1.10300 & 1.09900

Bullish as long as above 1.09100

Weekly Close above 1.10300 would call for another leg up.

I just want to keep things in perspective,,,

EURUSD busts through 1.1071, so just a pause, typical of a liquidating market … note EURGBP is lower, so far keeping GBPUSD above 1.3144

Liquidating market update – Suggests a pause

EURUSD holding 1.1071 (triple bottom)

GBPUSD came close but so far staying above 1.3144

USDJPY so far staying below 145.50

As noted in the article,

Liquidating markets will eventually exhaust themselves and finally reach a bottom, either by a key technical level holding or by the selling just running out of steam.

It is time toi revisit this article I posted as we are in a liquidating market today

I was asked the following question, I have seen you use the term “liquidating market” and my question is how do you define it and how do you trade it?

The last jobs data out of this administration reminded me that their numbers have been bogus for quite some time.  I pay zero respect and zero heed other than to capitalize on the volatility they create.
