The "New Normal" FX Rip

Seems to be the work of one player with a lot of muscle to throw at the market...but what level of lots traded can make this kind of road-bump?

4 Trillion a day in forex is 40,000,000 lots across all pairs. How many lots did some just open or close to make this happen?

The real news will come later...insiders are now trading...some people already have the NEWS!..remember forex trade is a poker game with small players having all their cards open...so get out if you make 30 pips here and there...!

So rumor comes out that the ECB might go negative on it's rates which spikes the EUR lower to 1.216x and then moments later we see a mysterious "Eastern European" buyer move the EUR 80 Pips north....conspiracy theory heaven! Look at that chart.

you've just made me laugh!-it's a good one!

nothing goes straight in one direction
we've already made 500 pips peak to peak in half a month

Well if you trade off a 1 minute then expect to get butt fucked on every spike.

If a nuclear bomb would have detonated zerohedge would be cheering. If something bullish no matter what happens, they feel disappointed. They must be a very depressing people waiting for their lives to be over......

I recommend you to read liars poker "who ever is good at telling a posible yarn, can make it as a broker". Then you will know that must of the time nobody knows whats going on but they sell a dream an excuse of what is happening. A middle eastern buyer or Central banks or G. Soros. Don't be naive.....

Even in R. Stock operator says the same.

Odd things happen on later half of Fridays. I tend to avoid Trading on Fridays, especially during late afternoons. My interpretation of why these things happen on Fridays is that as a lot of the big players closes up for the weekend, you can then have one or two major players being able to manipulate the market (since there weren't be anyone around to counter these moves) and you do often see that happen.

Today it was looking to break yesterdays low for the most of the trading day and it faked out instead. It looks like someone decided that it'd be easier to take out the stops opposite way and made sure it happened. EURUSD is becoming very cautious as it's approaching the support at 1.190 and the move down was very tentative last week.

EUR just up for another raging bearish. not sure with gbp. this what's G.soros says as "inequribilium movement"

my read is Euro is below 2 year low....the world doesn't want it to go much lower...plus US is NOT strong...many issues not dealt with...week economy not getting structurely stronger...in fact weaker...Q3 still in minds...all moves Euro long..from the lower levels...When US DOW goes up (like today) that means dollar is NOT place for money...

it looks like its not done yet, its a massacre!!! going going!!! hahahaha

BIIIIG BANK can make this happen...

I remember seeing a spike on the eur/usd just like this back in the fall of 2008 before the big drop.

If you have made money over the last week why not book profits near a 2 year low? A lot can happen over the weekend to make those profits disappear
