whatever fundamentals may be...do not forget that fundies are forever intertwined with technicals. these charts that we all see is what allows the "market makers" to make their money based on what patterns they want to use. thats why my profile says eur/usd only...each pair acts differently.

in any case...i post charts for the short term all the time. however..take a look at this long term chart...a weekly one...it explains greatly todays events..fundamentals or not

I know a bank trader and they play intra-day session game and stop hunting game.

They know exactly where stops are being placed and they wait until price hits a trend line that most believe should break and then as soon as it dips below they buy heavy for 20 PIPS then sell.

Lot's of stops at .3750 so bulls will really try to make a push for it.
this market is pretty big and for one bank to push it around is hard to fathom.

Stop hunting is feasible, and that's why I don't use them :o Im crazy like that.

Every move these bulls made I was on the other side.

If not trend line protectors then I'm clueless.

If you can find a logical reason for the bullish move I'd love to poke holes in it.

Tiki - I don't use stops either.

sure won't be good for exports...

remember that was the driving force for the economy in the last line of crap from the news channels. They forgot to mention how it would drive up commodity prices and cost of imports. Since US doesn't really have much left to sell, I guess no need for dollars anymore...hmmm

I'd like to hear some definitive calls from the gallery.

Where you putting your money to work???

if you dont lose, the banks will not win... so they keep doing that until hitting major stop losses. when they see that the volume of the shorts is small they push it down again and do the same again for the longs

depends how you view it. to me this is huge whats happening now...we broke out of a major downtrend some hours ago and all attempts to reenter the channel failed. this doesnt seem to be a case where the wall gets extended so if this move up holds its ground...we may see further upside the next few days. sure it may not help me now but later in the asian session or london session i will know how to trade...buy only on the dips as there is more bullish sentiment...at least up until 1.3882(previous low a few weeks ago which should now be strong resistance....just my 2 cents haha

Nice analysis dude, you were right. It broke out upwards. Secretly I was hoping you'd be right because I had two negative trades in EUR/JPY. I profited quite nicely too. I hope you profited well also

The Hr4 chart is now showing a standard Bollinger band pinch. The multiple strikes upwards this session only emphasize the support from 4-5 days ago. These upwards strikes get to that area of support now turned resistance, but do not penetrate it.

To me, it looks like the price range defined by the wicks of the Hr4 candles yesterday and today, and the body of the current one, simply represents an area the central banks and hedge funds are using to offload long positions and replace with short positions. It is just an opinion. But if this is what is going on, when these big players are finished they will give it a strong push down to get their profits started.

Look at your Hr4 chart over the last several sessions.....this has not broken out! It is simply in the top of the existing range.
