{quote} I know. 10 years + dont mean squat in the face of Brexit. Nobody knows what will happen. I wouldn't trust anyone who do said they knew. We will know when, today's hindsight is in the past. And even than, the cause will be debated. We know what we know, but what we know. May be wrong. Once we solve that. I think trading is easier.
So is today the final decision for brexit?

I can't wait to see COT report today...we know institutions hold long and short EU at the same time, but they net short EU, when EU hits institutions supply zone, they will release their longs and drop this Eu to help their EU shorts..

Yea I switch over to longs after 1.0994 was broken.
Got an average price of 1.0998

Right now I'm just adjusting my stops higher.

But I want to cash out for the weekend. So hopefully it keeps going a bit more.

if you dont mind losing money. A short near 1.1070 Area R may be a decent R/R. One has to limit trade size. To the stop loss placed somewhere above 1070. And limit it to the % of loss one is willing to take. If today closes below 1.0980, Some of this trade may be worth holding. One can do the same with chf 1038 week number. 1038 being a larger number on a week tf. Means the stop may be wider. Somewhere above 1138, maybe above 1061. The chf chart is bullish on the larger tf. The eu is bearish on the larger tf. That dont mean things can't change. It dont mean these R's will hold. One has to know their individual limits. A man has to know his limitations.

ps chf has .9990 quoted in some earlier post as R. It may prevent the 1038 test.. I really dont know since .9990 is a higher month close. Yes that should be bullish. The thing is, 1038 may have not got the memo. If so, pa may test .9914 day support again. 1038 has to have a week close above. Today is a week close. Its possible it happens today. These big ones often take several tries. I doubt it will happen on the first try w/o a few weeks of fighting.

Close a bit more 1.1057. More than half closed.

If it hits 1.1070 will close most of it. And let some small position run over the weekend.

Edit: Closing out most of my position here. Not going to temp my greed. Leave a small position to run however long it wants to.

Done for the week. See you all next week.

usdx is also near day support. Its normal to bounce some or even resume the uptrend.

It appears to me that EU has done its upside for the day. Selling the M. I missed the tip at 1060. A little girl of 10 was brought to me by the mom because she's peeing blood. She was raped. I mean, what's the problem with weak men these days who rape little children?
