About Pick of the Day

Pick of the Day Author

Each day, I will try to find what I believe is the best looking short term trade setup for the upcoming trading day or week. If you're a forex newbie, it can be tricky in the beginning trying to figure out how to look at charts and draw lines. My goal is help you understand the psychology of price movements so you can learn to analyze your own charts and trade on your very own. I will post my ideas and/or reviews through out each session right here, on Twitter and on Facebook.

Trade Review: GBP/USD

pcpreview.ff.png

The UK Industrial and manufacturing sector numbers came out worse that expected, after which Cable dropped as the manufacturing sector may have a negative impact on fourth quarter GDP. Our trade was triggered and we had hoped to play a range strategy. Unfortunately, the market dipped low enough to trigger our stop loss right before the pair shot back up, which eventually shot back up to hit pt1. Dooooohhhhh!!!! (It seems like I've been the king of picking out reversal points with my stops lately, hasn't it?)

So, it's another frustrating trade today, but no worries because we have two potential trade opportunites with central bank rate decisions and US jobs data at the end of this week. Let's shake off today's small loss and get ready for our next trade!
