{quote} Bulls are not giving up. Also, if we do not make it to 1760-1770ish, the weekly ADR will be 130pips, which is the lowest since January. I am still hoping for 1760.
Precisely. 130 pips in the week of April Fool. That’s the lowest of the week year. That sounds to me, this is ranging week. And to range, I want NY to close below 1.1618 today. So that we can expect some breakouts on Friday.

{quote} possibly, but unlikely not to rise after 1636 to a HH. maybe even before.. but I hold out for 1636 touch. 1682 has to give up the close to do it.. that could set up 1682+ close to end Friday london.. maybe somee trapped shorts can exit soon.
Well said. I risk EU short @1.1695 with L close. And closely watching UJ support @110.53.

Yes, you are right, I should have said since April. Let's see what's gonna happen tomorrow, breakout or not.

Gator, no questions at all about your position, but aren't you trading against Boulder's H1 and H4 stops? I have just noticed many times that you say you do not like trading against those levels.

I figured 1719 would give 1682 or less, like 1636 at the time. stops were limited to the high at 1719x + 2.. i got in late at 1711.. look to the left.. anyway, if 1719 forms a little double top. I think 1636 is where I want to enter. I posted the scenerero of that HH last week and the expected retrace. London did close higher, so odds are decent 1719 area will be challenged again. The week bears just care about closing + 1682.. they don't mind a drift back to 1636. They are likely to enter there and lower again IMHO..better yet 1623 or 1608 may see action..

i figure i can short near 1719 with a small stop. I may be wrong, but my stop is limited to that plus some spread, my tp 80ish pips.. i plan on longing that anticipated retrace. The month doji has a characteristic of retracing near the lows and highs. often its both directions. I still side with a 1850 test.. but its better for me to buy lower..

Watching 1.1753 - 71.4% - to slap it down, if it doesn't things will change for the short/medium term.

stopped for -4. still looking to long 1636+spread ..... maybe 1608 or 1613,, anything above 1506... but 1682 is a close support to stop it..

central time// in less than 2 hours. weekly bulls want to maintain 1682+ for london. but after it may allow some drop below..


or if it drops before london.. the week has to maintain 1625 or 1621 for bulls. Ideally for bulls is a L close above 1682..
Each close above make the retrace I wait for harder.. But a close above makes a retrace more likely to bounce higher. even after a drop..
