Euro needs to break 1.38.That would trigger some stops to pressure the dollar generally.
my euro longs are romping well

Doubled my account in 4 weeks using no charty stuff at all

just betting opposite to big moves and selling out at break even when i got in too early

Seat of pants only

I flick between 15 min and 1 hour and daily to make sure I have a correct perspective on the size of moves and wait for a succession of big candles and then wait - if its dithering and time is passing and its crumbling and there is no news about, i go opposite.

If I am wrong and there is more to come, but it hasn't reached s/l, I wait until it gets back to b/e and get out as the thing was obviously stronger than i thought

It's all very artistic with little science and only works in dithery fearful markets where people are unsure of sticking with positions or going out on a limb

When confidence returns, I am sure chartists will take the lead again and the cat's whiskers method of scenting movements will no longer yield results

I reckon fundies are only useful in judging the validity of already apparent trends and charts are only useful when normality stalks the streets - and the cat's whiskers approach is of limited use too.

Switching between them in different market times appears to be the way to go

A few years ago I would describe this as 'them' changing the rules on me to cheat me out of my money - now I know its 'horses for courses'
