That if she can break .9860 support. IMHO it wont be so easy.
I am afraid 9890 right now is a much harder support to break. If it breaks it, 9860 should not be a problem. But looks like EUR decides to stay above 3600 and it's bad news for bears on cable.

I don't gamble shorts at this level. Much safer to wait for a long set -up. That will provide a nice SL level (thus, a nice R:R)

Those 4hr channels are very tough to breach, they are usually breached via strong data coming out - not the case today.

"Visits" out of the channel are not unusual, though....

Agree to that. But it was looking pretty good for a nice short considering the friday's panic. At this point it does look like the troops want to go back to the 9950 camp to regroup before the attack. Will see how it develops for the next 2-3 hours.

Exactly.... A day of waiting. Patience will reward.

The trade today is go in, cut the throat, go out

For the bottom fishing comunity, a day to seed, not to harvest

I agree with Cearnc. Until 4 hour trend is properly breached opening path to 1.95 area I have gone long now at 1.9915 with short stop loss

BBA Mortgage Approvals m/m was inline

& Consumer confidence was better than expected.

odd to see EUR/GBP rally with bad german retail sales, but this looks to be working off...

Core PCE forecast is USD negative.
Based on last Friday's GDP, Consumer Consumption component was lower than the previous GDP by almost a full percent.

So no wonder if PCE comes below f/c?

It bounced off the short term resistance of 9950 just as easily as it was pushed up from long term support of 9890 earler today. Maybe the news release in 15 minuts will decide the direction for today? Otherwise I see that both bulls and bears are sitting in negative positions so far.

Aparently PCE Price Index was already absorbed in the price but positive Personal Income number was unexpected. Will wait for Chicago PMI but something tells me it will come out better that expected. My shorts are still alive. Stop levels were not hit, so I am in hopes of down movement again, although I already loaded stop buy at 9975.

I am staying out today. There will be some movement with the
Chicago PMI. However, I really believe that, for most of the day,
the GBP/US and Euro/USD will settle into a day of narrow
ranging. To be considered also is the opposite in which some
unexpected month-end buying/selling could occur through the larger
financial institutions. Either way, I have decided to stay out and
wait for a better set up.

Personal Income isn't enough fundamental for USD up, personal spending is more important than PI, and PCE is the most important release (schedeuled) today (BOTH WORSE THAN EXPECTED).

So i think cable up
