{quote} currently 1798, bull needs 75 and bear needs 70 pips to finish the ADR business .. let bear win..
if its going to drop, it probably will not go as high as 1828 again. if so, that 1808 may be the last setup, it may be all bulls get.. if they think it will break 1826.. at 1780 or 1865 they would have less draw down.

lots of time.. a little one with 1829 stop may do ok.. even a little one at 1545 would look good.. if late a smaller trade.. later..

Actually scratch that, 5 o clock news might be the trigger. Mortage disclaims might be a good reason to push keys

hihihi, not yet until we see 15ish

It might hit 1826 then get back to retest 1783ish. Or up to 1841 then drop back to 17ish, not sure!
But doesnot look bearish today! Prob at L, dont know..

tomorrows events have a great chance at boning PA and setting the tone for mid term direction to new highs or gators 545.

SL can save us lol !

I was scalping long against 1783 but got out with few pips!
Usually when the market sets up for dropping on Thursday, it would be starting around 10-12 EST already.
The uptrend does not look that strong so far, not sure... later
So hope for L then, if not, wait for 1841 then SL
2 strong Rs there, as long as it below it, we are good !

Good luck with your trade !

something that concerns me on shorts..german ifo business climate better than expected for the last 6 months straight..a 7th green number seems..not unlikely...us core durable goods..worse than expected for 4 months straight..odds of another red number..not too bad.

London & Ny closed lower on their day. ADR may expose 90 ish pips either way.. both closed 1801/1798 closes. tomorrow being Friday. may put 1758 and 1734 closes in the scope for Fridays closes. if that would happen. the closes would probably contain yellen and dragis comments. i prefer London close -1705. 1734 great too, -1732 better. these closes will happen with the including ECB/FED releases. that would be a strong statement for Bears if under 1705.
