You do not want to set your SL at BE buddy?
I think if it turn back to 1125, it will break the lower.
I do not but just my thinking!
1147 would be the key support for me!

Today at like yesterday we got a risk off market in the morning that is fading in the afternoon (to be confirmed for today).
Every body is looking at oil price. I dont trade oil but a quick look at the chart and it looks like we are back to the bottom of the channel. 45$ area has been a big support since q3 2015. On fa side it's a mess opec cut is balanced by increase production of non opec countries (Libya Nigeria opec but non concerned by the cut and US). Forecast are not really good with a demand that should rise slower than supply..
Forward inflation are declining that weighs on eu and us rate and ecb and fed decisions in the same way. So it a bit mixed for eur/usd unless risk off market strengthens.

Looking like another 3pm UJ sale. Seems like a semi-regular time pattern as of late. Wonder if more than 30 pips available with it this time.

atm its below 1156 and 1181 1177.. a close above 1156 is ok.. above 1177 better and so forth. its being squeezed against 1115/1109.. make or break here, if 1316 attraction makes 1459 true. that squeeze zone should be 1177/1109.. it may pop with momentum either way now in wtf fashion. the problem is it's a 70 pip ranged squeeze atm.. buy low sell high is usually a good strategy if stops are used for range. that 1156 is above 1133, making the st 24 h against the bears in today's london roll. it's also hit 1147, so the little bears did norm. small bull signs start with closes +1156 and so forth..

I got what you mean!
It might retest 1119 again so either it hit your SL or go up from there right?
Bunch of news at London session which either push the price up to above 12 or break 1108 to the down side.

london had rolled above 1134.... so i used that to give a test of 1177 a better shot. so it didnt make me shy of 1316.. + atm 1108 still holding. so i still am 1316 biased. near 1108 entered (1123) as risk using 1316 or 1459 as a target is decent R/R

bear wise when it hit 1175, that would have been my st shot to short.. with 120x better. but as stated, i am long for 1316

in the st a higher high was made. still not close above 1177 or higher. i am still not out of the woods in this compressed area 1177/1109. it will pop out. the first direction is not always the best. today if london managed to roll 1156 or higher, it would be less bearish. 1156 may also be a s/r today close wise. atm at 1162. so 1156 ish may force it up. better if it included a close above 1177. 120x and so forth.

Wow, thought 111 was a sure thing. I'll look to short again after it gets to 112.2 or next move done. Moving to short GU now, too extended, expect sub 1.27, tp 1 1.268; tp2 1.266; tp 3 1.261

I think it will retest 1207 then end day around 1190-1200
Congrats buddy !
nice tech analysis !
I think it will break 1207 and 1316 easily with daily trend(but there will be a pull back for bear as normal) then will see 1459 around the end of next week might be lol
will see !

1459 is more a st model. once 1316 is done. i dont know, if 1459 is meaningful being on a smaller scale. once 1316 is reached, i will look for weakness toward -1. with that said.. the window is large.. 1316/16xx high or about a 350 pip window. if correct about 1316.. it may encounter some r 1217 ish. but if a stronger bull, it would probably close above 1221 june 30.. or today.. 1459 could of been used on a st r/r using 1108 as a stop..the closer to 1108, the better the r/r for 1459 or more. but since 1316 is b4, and its a larger target. i can't count on 1459 in the way i am playing 1316. i used the smaller setup for 1459 to enter a larger one. i will slip back to bear after and hunt for a 0.9xx handle..

bear wise 1205/06 is what bears want to drop (just below it atm).. so this may prove me wrong about 1316. but i cant play both sides. my money is on 1316 or more

I got your point!
I have plan to short this pair around 1316-134x-135x to 1220-1230 area then could go long from there for 1459 but I need to see it rally up to 134x-135x before drop to 12xx which give me a hint that it will go HH to 14ish or even 16ish

even if bears are going to attack soon.. it may appear that way with R 1217/21 ish. they did the 1206 retrace.. regardless with just normal flow. bears would need to take out 1108. and even if it happens.. you may later get a short entry right back here at 1206.

Hi again,
Yeah, I think if it breaks 1108 which mean bear will take control to around 1100 area.
You think it will rally up to 1200 level for a short entry?
1207-1212 is strong R for today!
If if breaks hope that you can get your target at 1316 !!!
But you are in almost 100 pips profit already lol
I missed this long entry

Cheer !!!

not necessary bear.. the bears wanting sub 1, just needed 1115 and got it last month. so it could be setting up drop already.. just like 1459, 1316.. 1316 is a higher target. but its above 1115.. and 1115 was what bears wanted b4 -1. in between on a smaller scale 1316 became a target. the same dilemma about 1316 once it was above 1115 as what 1316 and 1459 is atm. targets like 1316 take time to set up and usually happen more times than not. it's a reason a was willing to long.even though 1115 was the larger prize.. 1115/16xx high is that window. 1316 is still in that window. i try to reach the highest point b 4 shorting. so i miss some. near 1108 was using the same principle to long.

I did not get your point at 1115 level as a critical level there. Can you explain why?
I know 1108 and the one before is 1075 is the previous S there.
I need to work out more on daily, weekly and monthly chart!
I think today the pull back from 1208-1212 level max at 1170-80 area then go up again!

Thank you anyway!
