ECB hint delay taper until December ... time it soon after the release of NFP. Big players are planning to long USD by throwing out this news.

{quote} Ny didnt hold either.. lots of conflict in charts now. week and day are showing it may retrace. the inability to hold 1901 177x are normally a rejection, in the bullish view, its a HH and a higher monthly close. its reached the 1865 mid since high. it did miss 1744 b4 1993.. i dont know where its going. i can see it rejected 1901 and those 187x levels on close. on the other hand bears dipped below 1826, then were unable to close below (day/week). this too may be a rejection. i dont know for sure. if 1826 was rejected, then it may go higher...
maybe some type of freaky open +1875/77

it opened gap above 1875/77.. sometimes that trumps close. now if 1869 acts like support. bulls could be back..

{quote} i went Long on the 1879 touch.. i need it to close above 1902 to feel safe now..
besides the week at 1874 and 1869.. needing a L close above for bulls.. a 1901+ L close is much stronger.

maybe this is the reason for the drop Friday.. and the inability to close above 1877.. the open was above. the month of sept has hit MPP already. hopefully for my trade for 2166 to come.

just a 20 pip drop on 1901 touch... its closed an h, above a 2166 level now. its also a close above 1901. thin markets in a holiday. but the pips are still the same value. L 12h close was above the 1874. and now the L6h above 1901 with close. bullish to me.

new day L roll @1915.4, was above day/week and now 1901 month. an h close above 1921 wouldn't hurt. U.S. markets closed..between now an Asia it may drift. L closed bullish. Asia gaped bullish. Month closed bullish. Trend bullish since jan. all trends are bullish or bearish till they end. that day close above 1901 was bullish. it was done while u.s. was closed. not the best situation, bullish with caution. need a 1h close 1921 +

the 1 h failed to close above 1920, and has closed below 1901. it may just need 1885 norm to go higher. support at least for st purposes may be 1884 or the others ranging from 1869/75.. the L day did close above 1901. so i will resect that as a bullish signal. although it is a holiday, making it less reliable. a possible long after 1885, with some possible support to contain it. 1869/84. 1945 may attract it after.

I see 1,167x and 158x as an attraction to new high

not that it can't retrace b4. the close L month close being at 1901 is above 1891. that leans to buying pullbacks for me. at least till 2166 or some type of rejection.. the L week and day Friday did close lower (than previous week and day). since then, the day closed above. MPP at 1877 or 188x. it is possible we have seen the lows for the month. the Sunday open managed to gap above MPP for some reason. the L day closing above L month 1901, after testing MPP seems bullish. when a day closes, its not uncommon to retrace some after L close. even so, a holiday may be less reliable

i would/could be with you. i changed with the gap being above Friday week/day close. then the L roll above 1901. i certainly could be wrong. the thin holiday pa may have fooled me. it is possible the week closing below 1901 may be holiday thin pa related also.. many in ny took Friday off early.
