It could be something to do with the damning comments from the UK parliament querying Darling's growth forecast. Quite right too.

If it stays below 1.5050, we have a good chance of a run down.

Failed to break 1.5095 and retrace to 1.5040.
News coming soon. If price break 1.502, first target 1.5, then 1.492.

any one in favour of short
There is a huge amount of resistance around 1.5050 / 1.5100 - however we've seen some strong upward momentum in the past few days, I'm waiting for a 4H candle close above 1.5100 area or below 1.4988 before she gets my attention.

current price action is in a 230 pip range.

Shorted at 1.51 and hoping to take profit 1.4980.
Moved stop now to 1.5050. Anyone else agree with this?

Interesting to note, the trend line on the 4h chart that was broken yesterday...the candle today spiked through it but closed lower.

Trendline on the 4H has been broken, wait for confirmation of the 1.5000 level break to be extra safe for short continuation.

Stop sell order 1.4995..... 1st TP 1.4900.... 2nd TP 1.4850
