I think the fib fails from the last swing unless a couple of candles can close above the 50% I wouldn't think of going long.

Well you stated that you are pro-government giving you other people's money...i.e Pro-Obama. And I do not not "refuse to believe" that the dollar is stronger during certain times...

I also have news for you..Obama knew that his popularity would give him the Honeymoon that you speak of, that is why he pushed this super-ultra-massive-Biggest In history-spending bill down our throats. He knew that no one in their right mind would pass it in any other circumstance. He probably could have started imprisoning certain races and invaded...
is that you speaking or the oxicontine? never said any such thing.dont put words in my mouth. take some advise eat a couple of fiber bars cause your full of it... and lay off the cafeine..... put all sharp objects out of reach. its gonna be ok just relax.. deep breaths..

Thing is i dont know what hand DB is playing anymore.
But how would you know their current positioning, exposures and biases in the market? Most of these rumours are totally unfounded and, even if true, do not tell the whole story behind a big trade.

You know, the funny thing about the CHF move? My favorite pair, in the whole world (that I do not trade because of the 8 pip spread), GBP/CHF, moved 500 pips in FAVOR FOR GBP ... not CHF. Just thought that was weird. I would have thought, CHF would have moved against all/any pairs, across the board.
That's why sl must always be set. MARGIN call in ten minutes easely. ego dont work.

EUR-USD Volatility Analysis:

HOUR Chart closed with a nice support at 1.2732. If we can break above 1.2787 we can see a climb higher to its 1.2830 level from where the prices fell.

Further if the 1.2732 holds we will have a nice "W" for a push higher to 1.2913 area as 1st target. (see Chart).

well guys,

we are opening at 11.00h EURUSD > 2760. So no short.

The next possibility is linked to USDCHF. when and if it reach 1865 (short term support) .. and from there it goes up ,then consider the possibility to go short on EURUSD

The best thing that can happen to you is to find out where you're wrong.

Yeah ... I check my ego at the door, before sitting down in front of my computer.

But what I still don't understand is, why did GBP gain from the SWISS currency buy/rate cut?
GBP/CHF moved 500 pips in favor of GBP.

Let me stand corrected, they possibly bought currencies against the CHF to weaken it.

kind of. I heard they only stated their intention to do so. Therefore, just verbally intervening at this stage or so they claim.

although it is likely there were some big purchases from their reserves in order to make their verbal warning carry far more weight.

edit: read BBG report which confirms they have entered the market

It was general Franc weakness - both the Dollar and pound went up

I remember a similar notion i think it was the fed or treasury last year, stating that they were going to sell gold reserves and gold tanked.
