It's below 107.87 a major support which now becomes resistance. So i see it short for now.

I just don't see how after 13-14 hours of being down the 2hr-4hr charts can still show 'up'
They had to at some point change, and then change back
2 factors are involved: one - how many pips retraced and the secondly - the placement of the BB.......

The only support/resistance in that are right now is the central pivot at the 107.83 and that changes at 17:00 ET.

Hello dwides, i don't know what you are talking about....there was bad (US)news release, which drove the dollar down temporary...it has retraced to the lower 107 and now is heading back to were it was prior to the bad news release....i to benefited with this pullback....remember i maybe alittle (U.S.) bullish with this pair but i trust and use these indicators...and if it does remain down...great....i hope to grab a few while it is retreating...but the big picture to me is still up....but thanks for asking....remember first what i said I am a scalper...and yes i hedge to protect my trade trying never to close a bad trade...we are in a narrow pattern currently and i love this area because i can pick those pips off while the pair remains in this narrow channel...cheers!!

Looks like the screen was wrong.
How come you guys don't post your plans when things don't go your way?

That new isn't until 19:50 ET this evening....... It's been negative for the last 4 months and I really don't foresee a hard impact on it.

You'd said the screen was showing you up to 108.50 and/or R2. I was asking why you guys don't really address issues like during London and US open when the price consistently went down.

For example: price hit R1, fell below weekly pivot - we should be going down to S1, etc...

Dwildes - during that announcement you had two major issues to deal with...... One was the pivot point and also the Bollinger Band..... Then you also had the trend up........ With those factors in place it was going nowhere but back into the trend.

So you just ignored the drop until it started to come back up?

Oh Yea, one other thing....... It came 1 pip short of hitting the R1....... And if you don't want to accept the fact that the 1 pip can make a difference then do some major studying on pivots and you will see what I mean.

WOW house of 10! Thought my house of 5 was loud! *hahah*

What it boils down to is - I was just trying to figure out a little on the way you guys think and plan your trades, and when market conditions change or go against your plans

Thanks for clearing it up

Trend is relative. For guys on a 30M chart, the trend was down for several hours. Maybe on the H4 or D1 it was up.
