as you mentioned before, probably money is escaping away from USD because of trump and he's still making all these non-sense decisions and deals/sanctions with Saudi, Iran, N. Korea, Russia etc...
Maybe that won't help a pull back any time soon. Resulting in EU keep heading up for that 1.2x target.

{quote} closing L below 1755 would make that 1818 bounce harder. even below 1784. above 1826 would be more bullish
Something wrong with me the se days.
I got very good entry short last week at 1901 last week and this week at 1807 but could not hold it for 30-50 pips
This week looks like a ranging week Gator!
Sell top and buy bottom I think.

maybe a sneaky scalp L on the touch of 1770x. 1771x support may reject it to 1818. s/l dont need to be but a few below 1770. allowing for spread entry could be 1771.8 ish.. support at 1784 and 1771 may reject it on h close.. norm at 1770.x
i dont have the time to watch this one. its not that its not valid. i cant play this long and the 1826 short, because the trigger order timing may not help.. and if it didnt trigger my long at 1772. if may screw may short later.

lets see if 1818 will attract it. {image}
1818 and maybe more got more likely with that 1788.7 close. even so, it may still dip to 1770. on a dip to 1770. a Long has has less risk of being stopped out as earlier. more support 1755 and 174x expected. but with this 1788.7 close, it makes that less likely to be tested . a dip to 1770 could also be the bulls chance to continue some. take this with a grain of salt, bears wanted 1818. they came close. its not set in stone for 1770x or 1818. both are normal, not a sure thing. std later

its looking like i will not get this entry. i will cancel it if 1818 happens b4. it may be ready to move north with a 1800+ close.

that London close Friday being just slightly a few pipets below the week b4's 1755x. made me slightly more skeptical toward Bulls. 1818/1909 could be the window. later if we get below Fridays low. atm 1818 is normal, even if it was going to turn bearish after. Friday also closed below 1841, 1826 and 1784. if that means anything with this bullish 1/4 and months since Jan. i suspect this isn't a bad place to do it with 1891s help. it may take time, such as Fridays low breaking/ then sometime after, another return right back here to 1818..

i screwed up not taking the long signal at 1735 ish i had, it should have yielded 1818. at the time weekly pp was 1715/11. so i waited for 1715. like now waiting for 1818 while it went to 1814 may prove stupid.. but its helped me be overall successful , because it could easily pass 1818 +

I think it could rally up 182x or break higher then turn to bullish!
Last week, I said it will find the strong support around 172x-173x, but I just passed it!

its near 1818 atm.. if it is going to turn bearish, 1818/1910 isnt a bad place.. it requires - 1727 now.. and if it does. if may come right back here to 1818

1818 hit now.. some R 1926 and r 1841.. bears and bulls probably wanted 1818

Yeah, 1826 is not a bad entry! unless it breaks 1841 or 1867, and 1818 hold, bull will take control.
Even 1867 hit, I think we still have chance to get out around 181x-183x before it makes a HH
Downside,1800 would be a key I think!

closing below 1784 should be bearish.. a low below Fridays also. even so with a low below Friday.. it may return to 1818 once more. closing above 1826 would be more bullish.. 1841 and so forth.

first things first for bears.. need a close below 1790 now and the 12 h.. -1784 better -1755 and 1745 better

I am thinking about long around 1795/85, target 1767 or previous H
And also short around 1826 lol, dont know what to do now, let see how it moves !
Below 1785/90 would be a sell signal!

12 h is not gonna close -1790, like the day above 1784. not really a bearish signal. taken with the week below 1784 its not in agreement. so it may test 1826 or.. as it stands w/o a hh.. 1776 may need a visit.. below it is that 1771.. if it is to be bullish 1779/71 may be a possibility for entry.. using 1771 and a few for support. lower support 1755 45 and low.
i still view 1826 as a R.. but 1784 as support has merit. and day and 12 h closed above or below either. still 1600 pips w/o much retrace.. some month idis still overbought. 1891 still there

uj close wise 110.48 is a possible day support, but it may dip to 110.44.. so i placed a pending 110.47, 7 pip stop. a larger support close wise at 110.18. resistance 110.84,, i may be too late with entry. once in i would like to see closing above 110.85 uj may be setting up 120.60. atm at 110.71
uj less than 10 pips away atm.. 110.44 may stop it
