{quote} very unlikely, not impossible. atm pa is above 2313. its not a done deal for bears. but they are looking very strong. tomorrow bears will be siting better with a L close below 2314. They will be sitting in jeopardy with today/tomorrow above 2389, L close. its stronger for bulls to close +2421 +2448 +2506.
edit to 2313

taken one near 2300, I hold if the close is above 2313. Thinking if it closes above 2313 it could drop to norm 2300 or a support and bounce after. 2300 being norm and a lower day close leads me to believe 2300 will happen. what happens after that ????????????? the highest day close since this 2190 one in 2389. I would need to see a close tomorrow above 2313 and much better 2389

2300 looks needy. from there ?????.. do not underestimate a bull closing London above 2506 with a week above 2448. The same with a bear closing a L day below 2190. if the next move reaches 2300.. it may bounce some. bears do not want that bounce, to be quickly back above 2389 to close L day today. Bulls on the other hand want L day to close above 2389 today. atm diving at 2346 low.. 2313 is a s/r close wise for tomorrow. it may act supportive. it may reach 2300 and end up above it.. atm it is very bearish. some cracks may be a 2300 bounce with closes...
It failed to break the 2443 top, I should try a small short at 2443 with tight stop but late now. I will try around 2300/2266 against closes below 2269
I do not get your 2313 Gator, can you clear me that? I got WC at 2318 might be NY time.

Eur/Usd is looking pretty bearish. Placing A pending long, I am thinking, it may bounce after 2300. Pending long at 2302. My stop at 2280. Its at 2329 atm. I would need closes above 2314, then 2389 to hold. Or by that time I may be already stopped out. The day closing lower leads me to believe it will go to 2300 or less, the trade is counter. I placed the trade because today closed above 2313.. it may be a quick s/o.. besides 2313+, 2332 may be positive if my trade survives Monday. Better 2389+ or so forth. No need to talk about stop. its posted. Bears want the opposite of the posted closes.

The year, quarterly, monthly and the week was up, I trusted the daily momentum for HHs. Failed. I see 1.25+R, 1.2150+- S. 1.23ish is the middle, a lot of chop going to happen here...

why shorting with 2 consecutive L days making lower closes? and NFP coming tomorrow and it looks like karket has positioned itself for a lower run?

last week close 2313. i figured it would go to 2300... after that is a coin toss. Its bearish, but my risk is limited to my stop. an up-move above 2448 is 7 to one. up move above 2506 is 10 to 1.
