some may be getting a pink slip November.. I will probably find me a quet hole in the tropics to ride it out into the sunset. The tropics are inching up North. I went to Glacier National Park. Somebody stole all the Glaciers. It gets hot there. Forest fires drought etc

looks like it. From ig.com i can see the low was 1.162 over the weekend.

mayb it will still go back to 1.1689 level before deciding which side it wanna go.

we have had a gap down that big not long ago but then 1.1450 holds and pa went straight up

Was my original plan too! If cpi comes out strong this will help with the drop

that was my plan too… but the announcement puts me off. If we start closing above 1689 maybe i will jump in. Or if we go test 1630-40

{quote} it likely scared some on the bounce. I dont have a lot of time to post..I did think it would bounce maybe at 1660.. it hasn't hit it yet. And the surprise there may be gone now. When you euro was younger. i would of waited for 1758 now. On purpose or accident, or an algo.1658 is 100 away from 1758. I'm working on a few things and dont have a long signal. If I get one and the 4h relaxes.. I could consider this. Maybe Monday
new day.. but young eu would likely go there.. The spread sucks..

Hes trying to get ahead of the cpi figure being hot and giving less reason for cuts.

1710 is 50 pips away from 1660.. 1756 is near the 100 pip mark.. The eu likes 100 pips. 1756 will looks bullish from here, and it may be once there. If it gets to 1756.. It may turn bearish if it passes this way again to a deep dive.. Below 1686x/92.. a deep dive should pass your 1630.. If just depends if it comes back this way.. It could be a 500+ drop.. Before a drop it may spike to 1756. the beer at 1756 is cold. Norm RIP liked em cold. 1727 can attract.. 1686 and 1692 can attract and did. 1756 can attract and can be part of the structure.. A place bears and bulls agree upon.

Thanks Gator, this is very clear.

i actually go back to check my chart i have 1630-40 last week as where the rising trendline is and its sitting at 1660 today where we bounced from. And if we get 1756 in the next day or 2 then 1686/92 will possibly be where this trendline sits.
cpi may help to make this works….

i have done a small long @ 1668 spread is a bit too wide for me to get a lower price. If we go back to near that i will try to get some more

I had plenty of opportunity to long.. the spread made it hard to do.. 40/50 pips from 1692 on either side may be were A large move comes from. I regret not just doing it and place the b.e.

It made a LL.. it took some weak longs out.. Now it takes the weak shorts out is my theory.. 1756 would do some damage to shorts.. Followed by a down move to catch the weak late longs.. And we got a ball game
40 50 60ish pips on either side of 168x/9x I'm looking to catch 40 pips toward it if it looks overbought or oversold weak. 1756 is about right
