{quote} I have been scalp shorts this week... I closed that 1238 short with tiny profit... wish I could hold some shorts, the downtrend didn't start till this morning,,,once it drops, it has no bounce,,,
at 132x the risk of pips was tiny. u just wait for a s/o or a move in your direction.

it could be a bear trap.. 1186 is a good place for one. The problem for bulls is the interest rates. That's why 1209 and 1145 need to be closed below. All your indicators are bearish. since 2008 the trend is down. Your indicators point down with the trend. The interest rates make holding longs hard to do. So in this atm area it may pop some till it gives in. weeks and months may pass. The bear trap, if any, is not likely to be too big.

however when pa is in places like 1316/22 was. We need to take advantage

pa has dropped from keys areas the last several months. Those key areas are tightening along with trend. Those can be held much longer.

Price is stalling as though no fuel for more down move. If the option expires it means price may even break below that 1.1225 you earlier mentioned. That is if there is enough fuel to move price down.

adr is average.. we had some 20, and 30 something pip days. those small days can make a big day, and still be average over time. big moves often relentlessly crawl. holding mine..
