As I stepped out of the elevator on the 101st floor and extracted my key from the lock that allowed access to the penthouse, I could hear a high pitched "Aiieeeee" and the sound of clunking from the corner office with the door open allowing me to see inside.
There were two Senior Currecy Strategist watching the window washing guy swinging to and fro in an equal but opposite motion from the sway of the building in what were now hurricane force winds.
Sitting at the desk watching the monitor in front of him the (Last Senior Currency Chief Somewhere Between The 2nd Partner Only 1 Step Directly From The CEO) looked up and said, " We have a lot of units on the line over there";He was refering to the Senior Currency Strategist that was teaching fx classes on the previously lost now found remnants of a glacier in South Africa which was assumed to be the glacier that the inhabitants of the lost continent of Atlantas had escaped on in the last global warming following the ice age, and yet still inhabited, The occupants of had decided to invest there procedes from recovered crased missles that had been caught up in an undertow which frequently was caught up in there fishing nets.
As I sat down at my desk in the office I had rented half price while the Senior Partners Cute Female Chief Currency Strategist was spending time on a misdemenor soliciting charge.
As I toyed with the USD/JPY pair on the screen in front of me and glanced at the indices to the left of the chart that showed the S&P holding above the 740 level that was required for further advances, and then back to the chart that showed USD/JPY sitting at 1.618 from leg 1 up and wondering if this could be near the 3rd waves top before a 4th wave down and then a 5th wave up and over 100.00., I watched as the pair climed up and then began to retrace, glancing to the left the S&P was rising, the pair retracing and as I set up the fib. retracement the first lot was sent into play at .382 retracement.
There was only a slight rise as other players went on the line for a .382 bottom of the 4th before the 5th wave up.
The pair dropped below 50% and then past the top of the 1st wave invalidating that count, then below .618, this plan was going down bad as the S&P was reaching new highs up.
Carefully I watched as the pair dropped slightly below .786.
As I clicked the buy button for the second lot I heard the computer voice say "deal is confirmed".
Luck (and a little practice) were on my side this day, as the pair rose towards the profit zone on the now halfed average I rolled the counter to 2 lots on the sell button counter and cashed in for a small gain only a pip from what would be the top of this wave before it crashed past and thru the recent lows and support. As the S&P was still ising !
