The move south on the E/$ may be the start of a larger move south, as I mentioned earlier, but not sure right now. It may be worth watching this evening. I am off until London, so good trading to you all. I am not a crystal ball person and am not trying to do that, but it is just what I am watching so if that helps anyone, then that is why I am putting it out there.

Hi ALL,
Just to sound, the daily Euro/USD is outside day key reversal.
so be on a lookout for USD BULL stempede.
I sounded, the rest is in your courts.

Today is Friday, so can be fast and swift.
Moreover if reversal looks good, there much bull usd days ahead.

Good Fortune.
regards

fti, if you feel like getting into it, in your preparation how do you evaluate being outside day key reversal ?

May I add my 2 pips:

1. Yesterday's candle (day-1) not only has higher high and lower low or the day before (day-2), but ALSO 2 days before (day-3). This increased its significant.

2. The (day-2) & (day-3) candles are doji.

3. Today is Friday, and if price don't move up, we will end this week with a inverted hammer in weekly chart.

good points on the weekly chart , missed it ...
just to add things , yesterday's move was 170 pips , at stage wer we ve been moving in 80-100 pips a day , 170 pips in the other direction might indicate a reversal

anyway be nimble , if u r long euro , dont go too heavy , big ships cant turn easily ...

Happy trading to everyone. Hope you are all well and trading well, too. I have taken a 1/3 position short the E/$ at 1.4208, and will exit this one at 4235 if south fails.

Edit: I added another 1/3 normal position to this now at 1.4206 to average my entry at 1.4207, and will exit both at 1.4225 if south fails. Need to see a sustained move south soon. I can see both north and south possibilities in the euro now and that is bugging me.
Edit: Am now out with small loss at 1.4220. Back to the sidelines for now.

Hi Zoran,
most use charts Greenwich Mean Time, closing at Tokyo Open.

I hope all is ok, I got my butts kicked today, Bias wouldn't let go, and the japs hedge funds and pro, USD profittaking shaved my profits yesterday. Anyway half of it.

And I will be looking forward to get it all back NY today. Thanks to proper MM, saving my donkey.

trade well.
Dang bias chart analysis.
better without it. well at least for today.

Trade well people,
regards

I have been on a break the last 30 min and will go do some non-trading things until NY open. My head has been not connected to the market thus far today, and I need to re-think things before trading continues. Fresh air and fresh coffee before returning. I will stop trading for the week unless I can adjust to protect good profits for the week. Just read fti's note and completely understand where you are at. Had a funny feel at the outset and was trading only 2/3 of a normal trade position, and kept things extremely close for tiny loss, but the whole thing is a warning sign to step back for a while.

Short the GBP/$ at 1.6414, protecting 2 pips now.
Edit: Square with 4 pips.
