I suspect for the long term down trend will prefail. On Daily chart, we can see that today is the 5th effort to break 1.4660 ( open/close candle) since 16 November 2008. I don't trade today, see next monday 1st where she goes.

Well.. she broke down... had the signals to go short.. but didn't... next week should be good now that it's out of that range. I'll be taking every new short I get at this point.

Just be careful, it could be a false breakout.

Plus buyers are sitting right in this area!!!

Good luck....

I can't take breakouts... I only take pullbacks So, if it is false, I'm in at the highs and limited risk. So I still have to wait till sunday, unless it goes up to 1.47 in the next 20 minutes

If you short here, what exactly are your targets? I'm very surprised to see a lot of selling on the pounds during this time.

I woulnd't short here... but that is just me... I'll wait for a full setup. Think this is just a friday afternoon sell off... could very well be "false" . E/u sold off too this hour.

Calling it a week... looking very forward to next week

Good luck next week. I will be looking to buy dips as we are getting very close to the low.

Ya I buy that... I can't trade countertrend.. too much added stress I like to relax and play some video games when in a trade

Until price pulls above the H1 ichi cloud around 147.75 I'll be looking for shorts. If it just goes into the cloud.. I'll have a day or two off till I get direction again.

edit: saxo bank feed just crashed down to 1.456... have to see where it closes to prep for next week.

The US Economy is going to get steam rolled in 2009. They are at the end of the beginning of their hardships. In 2009 you will see many business fall into bankrupcy due to lack of funding from financial institutions.

There will also be a global food shortage in 2009 as bank lending to the agricultural industry has been severed..... The list goes on and on.

USA 2009 --------> 1929. The only way that recession was stopped was because of World War 2.

My sentiment is that people will begin to see that countries around the world are doing away with the USD, and the USD will weaken: or should I say, continue to weaken. Just look at the USD index: in 2002 it was 119, today that value is 82. That is a 31% drop in 6 years. That is a clear indication that people, countries, industries are pulling away from the USD slowly. This will continue to decline.

What does this mean for the currency market? At the moment, people are buying the dollar based on risk aversion, because that's all they've known to do: buy the dollar when times get sticky: but when people start to realise that the USD really has hit the wall at 120mph, and when people realise that there really isn't any foundation to the USD anymore, then it is fair to say there will be a sell off of the dollar. When will this happen? It could be anytime, 2009, 2010.... but it will happen (in my humble opinion)

As I see on www.netdania.com chart and also zoom in Clicking on your nAVIN 4h chart and I see the recent 10 candlesticks all below 1.48. it means within last 40 hours, there was No price above 1.48 .
And also I see the price now at 1.457 on your chart
As I predicted this week 1.44xx, but due to very Thin volume and many closed hours, even though it was still able to weakly fall to 1.45xx . I would be very regretful I didn't catch the high price someone here saw so that I could sell.
Now I wait for the market open on Monday to go Short.
GU is going to parity with Eu ?
