What's the dollar dropping for? Don't see any reason...
The Leading Indicators released by the Conference Board measures future trends of the overall economic activity including employment, average manufacturing workweek, initial claims, permits for new housing construction, stock prices and yield curve. It is considered as a measure for economic stability in United States. This event generates some volatility for the USD. A high reading is seen as positive (or bullish).

pervious: 0.1%
actual: 0.1%

without any EUR news I guess this number could have floated the dollar up.. can't believe I forgot about this economic indicator for today. :\

We're in the same boat xD.. its happened not for the first time, good thing to do is write down all your indicators for the day in your journal and the times, I usually set an alarm for them but this time idk

It sucks cause I was watching knocked up and had a long at 04 that I was scalping. And earlier I had left over buy stops from the Envelope EA that lost me $80!

HORRIBLE day for me...Anyone think it's going to go past 1.9470? I'm trying to hold onto a long at 19538 and don't want to have to take another loss today

You're not the only one. I have 2 longs 1.5580 and 1.5559 and refuse to close them. Trying to ride them out and see what happens.

I'm not going to be greedy in this one... I'll close it soon .. because of risk of going to test channel at 1.5475.

I am going to assume 1.9470 is GBP$, futures for next month are at 1.9392/1.9399.

E$ futures for next month are at 1.5463/1.5471.
