I also put in a short trade on the CHFJPY with a trailing 50 point stop loss. The market hit a double bottom at 100.18 and has bounced up to hit the 61.8% Fibonacci level. The stochastics have also crossed towards the downside. All looks good you may say.. however, I am not 100% confident of this trade for the following reasons:
The stochastics crossed at the 60 level. A clean cross should happen either above 80 and move downwards or below 20 and move upwards
Very strong upwards momentum

I missed a hell of a lot of the action today.. the market had already fallen loads and there were just a mere few scraps to be traded with.
Today was a short day so I was looking for a chance to short the S&P and the opportunity came when the market bounced off the Fibonacci level in the 5 minutes. This also coincided with the stochastics cross and I went short. I didn't get the best price and also with the spreadbetting spreads my price wasn't great. However, I rode it down to around 138

Remember the trade I put on at the end of last week, a short of the EURCHF where I took 40 points? For those that missed it, it is here http://www.makemesomemoney.co.uk/2008/05/30/another-eurchf-trade/
Well, I looked at it today to see what it could have been and this is what the chart looks like:
Blimey, I missed out on some serious number of pips... about 150 or so!!!
