Thanks to some unexpectedly positive data, Guppy found solid support yesterday and advanced up the charts. Unfortunately, GBP/JPY didn’t dip enough to trigger me at 123.00 and I missed the move. So much for catching a retracement!

Although my swing trade on EUR/USD didn’t turn out as well as I hoped it would, that’s not keeping me from considering another swing trade. This time though, I’m looking at GBP/USD.
