last h... I dont see bulls signs toward 1382 atm.. unless something breaks soon. I thought the week bears may allow near 1382.. looks like they are going for the jugular being below 1342.5,,
The bears are tough.. better sell bounces. I have nothing to show me it will bounce to 1423 again.. I will have pendings there.. atm 1340/42.5 should become a stronger R.. pa should get below 1338 again and drop.. maybe test 1317 and 1300..

I cant see it, there is a 100 pip phenomenon concerning eu. I have nothing to show anything bullish.. I have noticed over the years eu tends to move from major points 100 pips. 1423 is a pivot this month. pa in near 1323.. I cant short being so close to 1300 tested support. Every close to me appears bearish from the Quarter to the 15 min....

all right.. i will see.. i am waiting for next signal trigger..a long,,.. currently line of sand 1323... it needs 3 continuous green candles above..

closes below 133x should help get to 1275 and ultimately 1215 soon

Well for me this closed bearish - I would suggest selling bounces... 1.1385 is my first one, that notorious 1.1406 and 1.1445... but now we are this low and close to the end of the year, I am looking for potential reversal zones... attached is my end of week thoughts... I'd like to say 1.1218 ish level for a good bounce at least but then further analysis brings me to 1.1118 level... the crazy thing is that it coincides with Gator's 100 pip over spill... Take this analysis with a pinch of salt, it might help spark more ideas on where to places trades from your great minds

also an article from Daily FX tonight:

EURUSD: Retail trader data shows 63.1% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders long to short at 1.71 to 1. In fact, traders have remained net-long since Oct 01 when EURUSD traded near 1.16344; price has moved 2.1% lower since then. The number of traders net-long is 13.5% higher than yesterday and 0.2% higher from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 4.4% higher than yesterday and 1.9% higher from last week.

2018 closed 1.2004
2017 closed 1.0523

50% of that move is 1.1264... might have some significance for this years close. Just worth noting. Maybe means nothing

Hi Boulder,
Kindly allow me to ask a question and forgive me if I am asking something elementary (hope I am not):
How can you tell how many contracts institutions accumulate, where do you read the data from?
Thanks in advance,

Hello MaxDoom,

As I was scrolling through the FF searching for some specific answers I could see your posts and it seems that you are a senior member here and you also do some codings.
I am a little bit better than a beginner in mql5, please allow me to ask for some help.

Let say you wanted to make an entry at the exact start of a bar (1 min) and you want your EA close the trade exactly after a certain time, eg. 60 sec, 300 sec, etc. How would you approach that?
The way I see is there could be several ways to do it and I have tried and I can manage the timed entry but my EA always fails to close the position.

Thanks in advance,
Gihon

Fridays close was not bullish. Now its just got beat support. A fresh low and a close below 1317 should do it. Once below 1317 the inability to close below, may indicate bounce. But for a bounce to be decent the close should be above 1343. And even then the larger closes are still bearish. So bounce maybe limited to possibly 1423. But the closes are extremely bearish. Going forward that may change. Or may not.

hello Gatorinla.... just wanted to drop few observation and would like your opinion on them:

1- EU made a perfect Bullish Gartley on daily chart, and completed the ABCD pattern ending with a rejection on Friday settling at 1.1335+
2- Weekly there is HH & HL
3- Daily it has a strong wick as supply level rejection at the bottom, it popped from 1.1330 to 1.1350 multiple times
4- the pattern indicates a pull back after breaking the downtrend channel, back to the old resistance line, which is the current support line

P.S. Weekly Bar shows Higher Highs, and Higher Lows with Daily Rejection Signal... thats very bullish

All those indicate a bullish sign to me....
