Something has changed since the start of the week when it looked as if the bears were ready to come out of the cage for the first time since November.

Instead, the bull market has nicely resumed and could continue it's uptrend.

However, there is uncertainty and the delicate situation in the Eurozone could bring about some swift and important changes.

For those reasons, I have market orders. Long at 1.3435 and short at 1.3375

I totally agree with you on the EURUSD, I see you got out on a -8 for the last one. Myself was -79 for a full 1R loss. Myself looking for a good long entry now.

Was short at 3375. SL got hit at 3271.

+104 pips.

Achieved my monthly growth target in a short month before month end. Even caught up on last month's losses .

We'll see how much power it's got. I'm not worried about the SL right now, just the TP.

Pulled out at 1.3115 for +57 pips.

Volatility in the market on the daily chart is what lead me to liquidate this position.

I have market orders set up but I'm on the sidelines for now. This has been a good February

And they're not right for me at the moment either.

Taking no position in an of itself...is a position.

Attachment 1151086

The pair has been hovering between approximately 1.2965 and 1.3135 since the beginning of March. Certainly a cure for insomnia if one hasn't found it yet.

As you know Smikester, my trades tend to last for long periods of time. Conversely, I have to wait long periods of time between trades which is what I'm doing now.

On the downside, a clean break of 1.2950 would convince me to short.

Attachment 1151088

I have also attached this weekly chart for wannabe bulls to consider. Ichimoku followers...
And short I am from 1.2950
