{quote} its extremely bullish. (thinking less extreme when it was near 2101, 2080 may have been enough, i dont know. ) it will take some discipline not to jump back in. 1917 is the midpoint to 3495 (norm 2).. i think 2164 (first norm) will be reached, hopefully after a 18xx pullback. i am looking for something not there atm, a bullish 1.26xx target to develop.
A pump to 1.2164+ without a pull back is possible.
For longs I will wait for 1960/1910ish.

Intraday or maybe even a runner long could be here around 1.2000.

if not in,, you may get a chance to long 1806/18xx.. most probably some R 2101 ish.. i closed my Long for 300+ the closes are bullish and not indicating a 18xx pullback atm.. NFP week sometimes retraces opposite of trend. {image}
Nice trade Gator!
It has more chance to give some pull back around these level, the bulls need breath a bit.
And I got the same view with yours, still bullish, buy deep and target for 2164 or HH
1900-1910 in my radar now...

Happy New Year !

Can any1 help me with this please?
I want my chart move little bit to the right and keep the free space smaller while the shift and scroll mode on so I can view more history of price.
The free space in the right side is too big, hope there will be an option to adjust that !

Thank you in advance !

There is a limit to that.
Hold and drag that little triangle to the right.

1.2 ish week and year close. being the year leads me to think it could pull back more than 1.2.. since some retrace of the previous candle is normal. the question is always when, and how far. it's just day 2 of a new year.. it closed bullish.. i am hoping it takes a break after all the heavy lifting.. for a lower entry..L rolls in 30 min.. it dont look like it will be -1.2

In January 2015 it gapped down at year open and dropped 1500 pips non stop.

Btw... Expecting a super bullish GOLD this year.... 2 bullish years in a row after years of bottoming...
Tell no one... this is a potential long-term setup.

I would wait for a short squeeze to short this, either intraday or for a pullback.
Plus timing isn't good tho...

i am amazed lumber is no higher today than 1990.. copper is still below 2011 levels. stock market to the moon.. but why? the usd got kicked in the nuts this year. commodities dont seem to moving like a good economy, with a declining usd would indicate. something isn't adding up.. i dont get the price of lumber the same as 28 years ago, with a world boom..

They are goods, prices are moving due to different factors as well as supply and demand criteria. Gold is a little bit different story... store of value etc etc.

personally. i think gold lost its shine a long time ago. other than some high end electronics or jewelry. i dont have a lot of use for something i have to spend $ on security to guard. those guys selling gold still take paper dollars in exchange. we do still have the ancient value of gold embedded in our dna. Just like the next guy i get the urge to dance around the campfire necked myself. the crypto coins could take the place of gold. it's a lot cheaper to guard it.

share a little statistics about today's London close that I just received....

" EUR/USD ended Tuesday 30 pips above Friday's high. It was the 4th day in a row that EUR/USD had closed above the previous day's high. The run last extended to 5 days on 17 December 2012, 1306 trading days ago (when the run lasted for 7 days)"

I am waiting to see tomorrow is the day... patiently .. .

i got a baby short.. i thought about closing it since the day closed higher.. it usually attempts to retest or more with the same period (24 hours) (+-2080/2101 area) . with nfp this week i am betting on a relax some, and form a little double top.. maybe it goes to 2164 after is my bet and i get a new chance to reload 18xx b4 2164 and 2600 +
