Signals so far...

EURUSD

>09:00cet: Level 4 short @1.2714, made a current low @1.2686 (>09:30cet)

USDCHF

>08:30cet: Level 4 long @1.2255, made a current high @1.2304 (>09:30cet)

GBPUSD

none yet

BTW look back. All these level 4 signals came after a preceeding level 1 yesterday evening after the regular trading time. Level 4's are reentering signals. They always have preceeding signals from the other levels.

In both pairs EURUSD and USDCHF you could see classical TA-flags building out before we had the level 4 signals. So not only regarding catfx it would have been possible to enter a little earlier (about 7 to 10 pips) on the break of the flag.

CET Central European Time

GMT Greenwich mean Time - one hour (-1) less that!

@kiwigold: And thanks for the wordclock.

Hi Mibl, I noticed those flags too.

8 minutes ago ECB Trichet made a statement and in 8 more minutes the UK Ind Prod m/m comes out.

Cable is approximately 20 mins away from a some kind of signal

 

5/11 02:00 GER Q1 Real GDP q/q - prelim 0.6% 0.0% 0.4%

5/11 04:30 UK Mar Manufacturing Production 0.2% -0.2% 0.7%

5/11 04:30 UK Mar Industrial Production 0.2% -0.3% 0.7%

5/11 05:00 E-12 Q1 GDP q/q 0.6% 0.3% 0.6%

On the surface it seems like pretty good numbers out of UK.

Much news coming out of the US as well 7:30 CST....14:30 CET

 

Cable is in signal area next 3 minutes.

But regarding the past this kind is a more riskier one. Why?

We are already 100 pips away from the low of the last two hours and we are about 30 pips away from ema50. Both ema's currently show to down direction. Cable is stronger than eurusd and usdchf.

So if you take this be careful and ready to close it early.

MIBL, I agree... by the time that second candle started to form it spiked down to 1.8612..... its obviously long gone now... See what its looking like when this dust settles.
