Hi Kor4x,

Are you still short on GBP/JPY??? You think that the trend is reversing now and it will go down direction ~1.53???

I'm still convused with this gartley because the prz seems really high but I think it's still valid and there is a divergence... It will be great to gat your opinion on it!

Thanks a lot

Regards

hi Abdel,
this is my thinking on the topic of News trading:
- I do not follow fundamentals
- I do not observe that I have any edge to predict the news move. I do not trade the news.
- News increase volatility, so I do not open any new positions just before and during news
- Before the news I check my Stops for the still open positions. I may decide to close some of them, but I do not have a written in stone rules for this. Closing because of a fear of a strong News move against my position is not what I want my trading is.
- In most cases price move caused by News fits perfectly to the market fractal. So should be treated like the normal price move.
- News move can stop on exact Fibonacci extension/retracement level. So again a reason for me to treat them as normal price move.
- Hard to review the News impact on the historic charts. News are usually represented by a bigger candles (mostly doji). But there are other big candles on the charts that are no result of official news. So diffiicult to backtest.
- Unfortunatelly it's still not my proper habbit to check the news for the current day or week. I should be doing it better.
- There are MT4 indicators that display you the news on the chart, so you will not miss one.

Anyone to comment/add?
