1.1740 resistance and I am using 15 lots so enough for today. My big trade from 1.15x is still running as well.

any opinions on tomorrows FOMC minutes?
Not much because most of the action would be finished before it release. Might take SL and i dont think it will alter the direction. Other US data expected to be good or moderate.

Remember tomorrow is the last day of the week in US. Thanksgiving.

I think it will create a range of 30 pips 4hr candle and it's going to revolve around for the rest of the week.

I reaffirm my position that as long as this pair closes below 1.1756, I remain bearish.

Daily Outlook and Sweetspots for Wednesday (Update)

  1. The large range is between: 1.1772 and 1.1693 for tomorrow..
  2. The mini range on low volatility hours during Asian session will probably between: 1.1755 (nearest resistance) and 1.1706 (nearest support)
  3. As long as price stays below 1.1772 and together with resistance from 1.1808 roughly, bearish retracement channel will be valid..
  4. As long as price stays below 1.1755 bears can have a chance to push price lower to retest 1.1693 area.

Have a great evening folks.. see you on Frankfurt open..

Stay Green

Hi everyone,

Looks like we entered our zone to load up on longs, so I did place 2 orders.

7350 (limit) and 755x (stop)
S/L @ 665x (70PIP)
T/P on FE100.0 @ 935x (180PIP)
MAP on FE61.8 @ 855x

Drawing the upward channel we are at the max range to take a long.

We are in a bullish flag pattern at the 50.0 fib

MACD is signaling entry, also on EMA 5 / SMA 8.
No downward confirmation on EMA 5 / SMA 8 on daily yet, so I will take this long.

On our short plan, the TL for entry's got broken, that bothers me a bit.
The deeper it falls in the blue zone the higher the chances this isn't a new impulse wave and eventually we will get more downside.

Looking at the daily candle this signals end of down momentum
but
I'm still not convinced we are in a new impulse wave (a breaking of 860x would confirm), but EW count says no so this could be a minor upmove.

By the way, at the next touch of the current low I'm pulling some more profits...it was supposed to happen automatically but the tp missed by a pip (1.1713)
Pulled some profits today for another +3%

Also- as I said before, Yellen = non event. 2/4 forecasts finished for the week. FOMC tomorrow..... and Thursday could provide volatility due to the EURO news coming out plus closed US markets. All is detailed in my video at the beginning of the week....

Have a good evening!

Hey all, been busy with wrapping things up at work before heading out to see family tomorrow.

I was stopped out of previous longs but bought here in the 1.1730's with a stop below 1.1660.

I'm a swing trader, so take that into account. Hoping to get 200-300 pips from this puppy if we get the break I'm looking for.

TQ for your reply to my post and I am blown away by the stats if it is indeed what you wrote.
Can you be kind enough just to make 5 simple live trade calls with SL and PT to validate your stats and to entrench my belief? I be totally awed.
