Bears are raging now, foaming at the mouth!
I consider that a daily close above 0975(Thursday's important low) is needed to keep the bears sweating.
Oh, the child in me knows its still a bit too early, but I am dreaming upon a star, a rare morning weekly star
. As ridiculous as that sounds, that rare possibility is already having an effect on some of my setups. Last week's moves were of indecision, after quite the extraordinary fall. >1120 is necessary to make it come true. a W close >1150 would be a change in global approach for me. >1270 would be the engulfing Godzilla I cannot dare fathom yet . The above went well enough. Thank you 0940s resistance! Right here, again, resistance is furious!
My 3 remaining positions are holding on to their hats
, as we visit this crucial level for a second time, and here quick updates: dynamic SL of this first long position, .0908, was recently moved to 0935 SL now at 0959, my 2H middle of range, below which a possible second reach back into 0920s is now too great to ignore. The above 2 setups were my favorite of the day, being " nice potential stemming from tight early day low range =lowest risk entry."
Dynamic TP is now at .1025, SL at BE at last.
Dear mates, that is probably all for my shares here today, take good care everyone, double hugs to you and from you to all your loved ones, in these tough times for even more people around the world

If that happens, I would close my closest long or perhaps my 2 closest longs, but only temporarily; see the middle of range setups in my above posts if interested.
My 3 remaining positions are holding on to their hats
, as we visit this crucial level for a second time, and here quick updates:I just attacked the possible double bottom, I bought... 0910 should be interesting, unless it is still micro ranging.
{quote} That clean break of 0910 was exactly what I was talking about, and what I needed to put some flesh on my long's bone. But still need a clean enough break of 0928-0935 (present week high levels)for me to take it seriously, or I will be content with 15pips or less. We'll see. SL is now already at .0901 for -7 loss, but will be moved at BE if it gets to 0922 before.
I think we might get some movement at last, nice volatility growth the last s15min, and if we can stay above 0912 long enough perhaps some decent momentum starting? But probably still ranging though and, if so, will be back <0910 in no time. Buying again here 1.0920. 12 pips sl for now.
bought 0953. 6H average mid range entry. TP outer limit 60pips, same SL. I think the bears are lurking. I dare them to poke their nose out

If I don't mention SL and/or TP = longer-term setup possibly in the works!

{quote} I always happy to read your side of reading markets, many pips to you, cheers!
So indeed, not the ideal spot to enter for many types of strategies, unless it is with super tight SLs and super large TP
, like opening here with 17SL aiming for the month's high and low
. Tea is ready, and now stroll time. Cheers Scala, cheers all!!!
Stuck in the sea of resistance

{quote} Thank you so much mate! It is mutual. And your great attitude is a breath of fresh air. I wish you the very best with your trades. I think that both directions have just has many opportunities under such conditions. And here, resistance has held too nice a second significant time. I find that Bears really really need to stay as long as possible below 0980, under which they have all it takes to, at least, force price into ranging mode (0940s-0980s), which I find to be just as probable as the rise to continue. My bUlls really need to keep...

@Mtako
LOVE this guy but I have a question:
1. Is the bear holding on for dear life while sinking...
2. Or is the ice like a hand (imagine the lady of the lake and Excaliber) grabbing the bear
3. Or is this a really smart bear who made an ice toilet?
I mean the possibilities are endless and I LOVE it - thanks for bring a smile to my face on an otherwise dull boring EU day. Frankly with the EU meeting and the FED rate decision on Wednesday I'm surprised that the market has moved this much or that the Euro has held up as well.
I'm of the mindset that Powell will raise 0.50% on Wednesday, not the 0.25% everyone else is expecting. Frankly with inflation running at these levels does anyone really think that a 0.25%, 0.50 or even a 1.0% interest rate increase is going to do anything?
Unfortunately until the Ukraine war is over I'm a EURO BEAR
for the following reason: ENERGY!
Without affordable (ie cheap) supply of energy manufacturers will suffer margins. Transportation costs are skyrocketing here as well. People have splurged in 2021 and in 2022 it will be the year of doing without. Sorry to digress. Full disclosure - short here at 1.10955
