Do you mean inverted head and shoulder or head and shoulder?
The last small drop was down to shoulder and this move up should be the big one. However, not sure.

Hope you're right. I'm still short from yesterday as well. My stop is at 1.5570, and as I suspected, 1.5555 is proving to be a tough cookie. I'm not really sure why this upmove started, but it does not make much sense to me. Maybe this is my gut telling me something.

Exactly Kevin. Alot of dealers been piling in lately. In everyone's mind we are tracking to 1.65. I am not saying they are wrong. The idea is just priced in the market in my opinion. Like I said though, it is hard to hold Euro shorts.

Now you have to worry about the US Equity markets. I hate that. We might as well trade the S&P lately.

I try to use common sense when trading, but it rarely helps!

Agreed.

At some point we have to assume there will be a return to equilibrium. 1.6000, in my eyes, is far from that equilibrium. Euro's are just too expensive at that level.

My guess is this level is around 1.5. I think you posted on this # yesterday.

I agree that euro is way too expensive, overbought by a long shot. However the market is not reasonable. Hasn't been and never will be. It's driven by human emotion and fear. It's why things have been so volatile. It over-correct again and again, which in a way, provides us traders the opportunity to make money or the traps to love a ton. At this point, I think with euro stuck above 1.5555 for a while now, we have no choice but to surrender to the fact that euro is on the way up again. How far, I have no idea. Let those experienced speak their minds.

Margin called ? What kind of mm are you using man ? Can't get far if you risk that much no matter how good you are I think, unless you withdraw regular and don't care to loose the account much.. My rules are 1% max risk per small trades, and up to 2.4% for larger mid-term moves like EU now.
70% margin i was use last week
but it's ok dude..i already cover my loss almost 60%,
last week over confident LOL

PS: how about ur short dude

Given that the E$ does have some history in repeating trends and ranging, I think we are on our way up, maybe 1.59?

http://www.forexfactory.com/attachme...9&d=1209943242

3rd run up?

http://www.forexfactory.com/attachme...8&d=1210036422

Currently long from 1.5500.

I agree with the over valued E$ but oil over $121, copper almost $4/lb and Fannie May reported a lost of 2.19 billion!
