Here's something I've been looking at since the first of this week.

Notice the green trendline I have. Just below the h4 150ema. Looks yummy for a nice launch north.

Oh I agree! I don't think it will actually close there, but it's possible for sure. Considering the US govt wants a strong USD.

As a fundamental thought (WE ALL KNOW I'M NOT A FUNDAMENTAL TRADER)

Oil is continuing to rise in value (I'm a buyer from way down south in the 30's and holding to $75), supply of oil continues to dwindle (so they say), so the theory of supply and demand comes into play and forces the price up (plus we have Saudi saying the fair price of oil should be $75/barrel). Now, the US govt and Obamanomics does not want the US to see $4 - $5 per gal. gas again this summer. So, if our govt. cannot control the demand, control the supply, the one thing they can control is the value of the currency that purchases oil globally and that's the USD. US Govt. strengthens the USD, cost of oil goes down and cost of gas stays under $3 per gal. I believe many American's will start calling the Obama administration a failure should gas prices soar again this summer and run for the hills with their money and stop spending again and slow the economy back down..

Closed under my trendline and bounced off of support. She has been hanging in that 3600 for awhile.

Is it time for a retracement???

Closed under the 50sma, but bounce off of support and hit the 50% fib.

HOLLA
