Hanging around that ascending cyan channel midline toward the end of the day today... We may crawl up it then dive more but I am holding onto this trade until 9750.
My stop is placed at the recent high on Friday.

Channel finally broken today. CHF is very strong against USD this week right away. 2017 close target remains. snapshot

Still holding onto this baby. I have about 8 lots at this point short with an average price near 1.0000. Targets remain.

If EURUSD chooses to go higher, this is the prime target for shorts.

I will close half at 0.9835 at the year pivot (thick cyan line in main chart window).

First profit point was about 170 pips. Nice day. Took forever though.
