On 11/7/2017 COT report, we see big boys increased Euro long 7,665, and also closed shorts 5,693, while Euro hit low that week 10/31-11/7
Long exposure 65% vs short exposure 35%,
Net positions( long) increased from previous week 72k to 85k
No wonder we didn't see the follow through of H & S break that everyone was waiting for that week.

I don't want to continue with that conversation.....

I have three Rs: 1674, 1684..1702.... three supports 1653,1642 and 1625
since uptrend was triggered 11 hours ago, currently @7pm est. uptrend stop 1639 at hour close

i think its extremely likely..its just a matter of if it does it now below 1674 area or after a hit in the 169x area..the only risky thing is if bulls hop on the wagon upon a break and she decides to go into the 1700's for a bit :/ still holding my longs..boring day havin nothing else really going but sittin on my hands waitin to get 40 pips or break even..

Pending Short at 1692 as well.

i only took the small short trade because the day missed closing 1660+, since the 6 h has closed above. .. i still have it as bullish, so i have pending buys just in case a pullback.

this is the guy who bought the bitcoin dip...

as Reuters reports, former Fortress macro hedge fund manager Mike Novogratz - - told Reuters Global 2018 Investment Outlook Summit in New York that he bought $15 to $20 million worth of Bitcoin over the weekend in that recent pullback.
