{quote} Less time than I thought. Atm bears do need to close below 1447 and 1434, But pa needs to get to 1400. But now 1451 has an attraction. If 1451 happens before or after today's close matters. I do think the bears will win. Here is where it may be wrong. Bears later need to close under 1401 to beef up 1447.
see is trying..1401

I got a 1h closed below 1401. The 4h that followed was above. A little mixed but i dont think its going to 1440. I had the R earlier at 1428, See older post. Any way I think a close below 1374/75 is st for a further drop. The next h close is a 6h close. -1400.8 should be a bearish sign that strengthens the R at 1447. More so if below 1374.. What may screw things is S 1369.. Anyway I expect 1331 still. and if it opens. 1308. 1302 may also be support but its no longer a norm,,

I may regret,, I closed because 1369/7x is close. I left some pending entries 1428 and below.. It may want 1430. I have doubts about a large bounce.

So is this EUR animal done or still breathing ?

{quote} there are some rumours going on an emergency fed rate hike this weekend 50 bps..
It was not a rumour
it was Bullard calling for 1% Fed fund - until July
0.5 hike in march
and He was calling for an emergency rate hike because FED is day dreaming while inflation is 7.5%
not instead of calling inflation transitory - they are saying it has peaked

and they should do .05% fast. but they have their own agenda

Prepare for a big surprise in March from FED/ECB - reduce leverage until then

EUR/USD still has a big support near 1.136

Awake again.. Nothing changed in the bearish view yet. What's happening now is bears made 12h closes below 1407 1401 and 1398, But pa has run into 1369. 1369 has to have closes below to drop, So does 1331 and 1308. Meanwhile I closed because this was the better looking place to bounce. Today being Friday, a week close. It would be better for bears to get a day + close below all these mentioned numbers. Pa can bounce to any of these like 1407 1401 and 1398. In a normal situation back to 1432 is normal. I dont know if pa can rise above those others much, since the 1492 rejection. The 1492 bulls are not dead just yet. After a large close below 1308 that should change. I placed a pending at 1428 and went to bed. I didnt/dont think a normal bounce was coming. I could move it down to 1426 16 07 01 or 1396 I think. But I dont know how high the bounce will be off 1369. I do think a close below these is very bearish. A week close is the strongest one possible later today. On the other side of the coin. The week closed above these last week. That's why I respect this possible bounce. Because I based yesterday's late move on the rejection of 1492. The week can always screw me. The 12h/day makes me think I was right. If so, the bounce may be on the smaller side. Maybe just 1401 or 1407. I pulled my pendings down to 1426 for now. I dont mind splitting them, raising or lowering them. I just need to watch pa. Norm it 1432, so beware of closes above it. Last weeks close was above 1369. So a retest of 1447 is not out the question, pa can go anywhere above after.

I think it will drop, but respect last weeks close above 1369.

{quote} 1/2 of a normal retrace is 1401.4
Since 1369 is a big #. I will wait for 1432, unless something changes. Stops could be just a little above. Or stops could be above 1447/49. But if today closes above 1447/49. Then I would expect a retry of 1492. Bears ruled this place yesterday. Bears ruled, after the week missed 1447.x slightly. Early last week it fell. But the same week miss of 1447, was above 1369. Since atm pa is above 1369. The potential to retest 1447 is there. Waiting for a normal retrace to 1432 is not a bad thing. I may miss the break in 1369 if it dont bounce. I dont like the risk for my personal target. I cant reach my goal overleveraging my stop. Shorting 1432, with a stop at 1452 reaches my goal risk. To tp 1332. I will will also add another at 1447 with the same stop. That would move my tp closer to 1390. I may have to sit out the break of 1369 until I see a future opening. I made good money on the 1462 drop. I will try to keep most of it.

I could have taken the trade below 1432. But my stops would be below 1332 (norm). I would rather have the stops above a normal retrace. I'm not saying pa is not bearish. That 12h close below 1407 1401 1398 is bearish. Its just that norm happens most times. But bullish w/o 1369 closed below

i was expecting the same thing - but it has to come a point where it should get wery well on auction

both pair traders are forcing FED and ECB to pay way more

what is US going to do with such a debt ? just pay big interest . i think not.

Yeah, debt is an issue. Its just a pozi scheme. Higher wages do bring in more taxes. Inflated products bring in more tax $. Its kinda a wash if you look at it this way. Yeah debt repayment goes higher. Deficit cost more to repay the interest. Its not as clear cut as they make out in the media. If it was we would had gone bankrupt decades ago. The EZ and most modern economies using a income tax system is on the same path.

What's the EZ going to do with a economy that's based on 43% on exports? How can they possibly compete with the U.S. who has natural resources with abundant energy compared to the EZ. The natural flow of the Euro should be much less than 1 to 1. Gravity will win in the end. It just may take a few decades. Another 35% drop puts it at .66 (1/2 of today's eu). From mid 2008/2010 The e/u dropped 25%. That can happen again. So people think the ECB wants to raise the price of Beamers via interest rates? Good luck with that EZ. Sure inflation in the EZ is out of control. But people have lived beyond their means in the U.S., and the EZ to a greater degree. The chickens will come home to roost. Tf you want a good business, start selling small vegetable garden supplies. Food will be going up in the EZ.

The ECB may bullshit the world. They are not bullshitting me. They depend on exports 4X more than the U.S. The entire pump to 1.6 was bullshit. Now Russia , this may not end well.
