Sooooooooooooo...it looks to me that today's action could be crucial in deciding the trend.

Personally, I'm favoring a long trade for the longer term. But that's just me. I'll be happy to take what she gives me in the meantime.

I'm surprised by this turn around in the last hour. Could someone more experienced than I am shed some light on the reasons for it perhaps? Only reason I see just now is from the morning low.

fundamentals i think. gold up over 1000, oil supply draw down

I went long halfway down that 50 pip candle on 15m. locked and covered now!

cheers Shilva, good job on the long. I have no idea just now so will stay out. Was wondering if we're seeing this pattern but probably not

was also wondering if we might revisit this neckline and trendline. My 4h candle just closed too.

We may have resistance at 6500 from earlier becoming support!

I believe a close above 1.6530 would surely send us north.

If anyone took that short off monday's low around 6530...nice job.

Still holding 1 long soldier from 6470 here. taken 35 and 50 so far.

I see the same thing...break above 6530 and back to 6600 area. If it closes above 6500 by end of NY session then Asia may push her on up.

I still favor the longs, but I doubt if there's a great deal of movement before tomorrow's unemployment numbers come out.
