Took an absolute beating last week and decided to stop just reading the forum and actually get involved. Can't make up my mind re a longer term movement on this just yet as can see valid arguments for movement either way outside my normal TP/SL ranges. So scalping a little in this sideways action and expecting a retest of 2394 and will exit my short here and buy.

Thanks by the way...have learnt a lot fro this community over last year.

I expect to see mostly range-bound trading....let say between 1.2447 -1.2387 (38% & 61% fib levels)
until the FOMC minutes are released Wednesday at 2pm EST

However, a surprise in some of the Euro PMI's on Wednesday morning could change that.

Sup Gang! New week new adventures! Any thoughts? My limits missed today and I am not quiet sure if we are going to test that level again. I got strong V on hour and on all my indicators, which means a bit drop from here before up again. Overall market pretty bullish, even with US bank holidays today. Well I count on it anyway! I think Wednesday data may give some ideas. Till then just browsing! Good luck everyone!

If price can stay above 1.2390.. we can start buying dips.. Stay Green
I see the same too! Market still hot from last week. And today's is not exception. 2340-50-60 missed which means nobody wants to spook buyers. All my orders in line. Just watching now

inverted head and shoulders bounce off 4 hour trendline to cause correction C, to then break the neckline of the inverted head and shoulders..........long term view

I prefer the 6 hour ,many times with the eur / usd being one of the most fluid pairs its the same area a majority of the time as the 4 hour candle ,,, the daily box now has some levels one could use ,wouldnt be suprising on a Monday to see at least both 272 ext levels get hit sometime during the trading day ,,,I am looking for the best short atm to be from the top 618 ext ,as that is where a rough daily price average is atm ,,,down here obviously thru the 50 level the box bottom becomes the tgt . At the very least there is some levels to watch thru...
20 hours later the price done what ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if you payed attn to the levels of post quoted you are probably happy with the day,,,,,,,,All the players not involved so day ends within 2 pips of where it started and a range of a whopping 66 pips ,,,,not surprising or at least it shouldnt be . Now its got some weekly levels to work with ,all participants will, be back . trade safe all

hi price might retest 2500 who would agree ??

I think sideways/indecision for a few days, this is purely based on the candle formed yesterday and the price action so far today,

could be a bit early for this call but there it is.

Thanx man ,,,very hard not to get sucked into just watching price go up and down on your screen ,,,,whether parttime for a little extra or if this is your full time gig ,,,,,,,,treating it as your job means more than just kicked back watching price go up and down ,,if thats your strategy your always gonna be zigging when the mkt zaggs and it will be the damn stop hunting brokers fault lol,,,,,,,,,,, need a way to put some structure around what price is doing ,,,, a way that actually gives you usable levels. Of course that means doing a little more than just watching price bounce around ,,,,,,,but then your a trader thats your job. The effort will more than pay especially if you use levels the mkt actually uses

{quote} Allegedly, it is not his opinion or bias BUT a fact that 1.1910 will be hit, meaning 100% certainty. However, I prefer to trade my edge and leave the 100% probability free money forecasts for others to trade. {quote}
Of course every trader should “trade their own edge” I completely agree with you on this.

My edge is knowing the E/U is dropping to at least 1.1910 and I’m trading it accordingly

Me personally i love the EUR/USD because of the price action that takes place here about 90% of the time,

As you are aware i am more of a scalper then a trader, so most T/A is neither here nor there for me,

but as a scalper knowing the direction of the day/candle is important to,as is breaking of the trend line in the 15 min charts,
this trend line breach tells me to change my scalping,from focusing on buy or sell trades,your posts help me to focus on the higher time frames,

This helps with confirmation in my calls especially if they marry up together (bull or bear) instead of going in opposite directions,

Like what is happening now in the 15 min chart right now, no trend line breach=no scalping for me,not just yet anyway, but soon me thinks,

keep up the good work Diggs, and who gives a $hit about the knockers there are more supporters here who are open minded and are willing to at least listen and learn something new,

I am a self taught trader/scalper and have been trading for 15 years and i am by far no guru in this game,
and i am still learning, and this site, eur/usd link has taught me a lot,

And i am very pleased to have found you all.

Cheers Brian Dingoman-two

Trickey area no doubt ,just kinda revolving around weekly pivot or 50% level of current weekly box ,,,,would say dont fall in love with the downside atm lol,, there is a reason why weekly box top is where its at . At the very least you have a good idea where to pull the trigger with a tight stp ,,,,,,,,and you have levels above,,,,,or below,,,, to shoot for if a level does what ? Gets tested and dont hold ,,,,without the confusion of wtf is going on lol

I do like the way you can predict the possible price targets Diggs, this is something that i have never been able to do before.

1.248/9 possible price target,

Not to say there is not a good scalp trade back to that shoulder level ,,,,,,,,but if bounce from there it should give one a little heads up about being cautious about piling in thinking its gonna drop hundreds of pips till that is wiped out lol

Lol,, our discussions I have gently been trying to point the mkts are not magical or mystical ,,,,lot of human input and humans can be tracked and figured out well enough to give you some good clues and an enough of an edge to make more than you give back ,,,,the mkt gives the levels ,,, the old patterns and projections work as well today as before ,,they just are not all text book examples
