I know its not going to drop that far in a week, but just drawing out the course it may be headed in....I'm short right now, if it goes back up the range, I'll short again until it breaks....if it breaks upward, I just exit trades and wait to re-evaluate.... if it breaks below consolidation support, I'll add to the trade, exit and re-enter on a retest of previous support which becomes resistance...

Oh yeah, it could drop fast and hard as bulls let go of their positions in anticipation of the new quarter and end of year...by Oct 8, all the financials will be out by then..

Well I guess anything is possible, but (as yet) I can't see any fundamental reason for the EUR to lose that value in a week, and similarly I can't see any reason why the USD would gain that much strength so quickly. Might happen of course, but my thinking is that this will be a slow decline rather than a rush. Never can tell though, look at the PA today!!!

I'm not sure, the move looks strong, but I think by NY Open the bears will get out, price may go back up and then another bear attempt may take place....

Look a the chart I posted and follow the arrows.....that's just how I'm guessing it will happen, no concrete evidence, just looking at PA.....

Its Thursday today, NFP is around the corner, so we'll see short term consolidation till then later today in preperation for it.....

ECB’s head honcho Trichet says excess forex moves have adverse implications. It’s only a headline at the moment, so it’s not clear whether he feels recent euro strength is an excess move. I’d be surprised if he’d directly come out and say something like that at current levels, more likely to get a gentle hint here and there.
Suffice it to say, seems fairly clear (to me anyways) that euro zone officialdom really doesn’t want to see accelerated euro strength from current levels.
EUR/USD is drifiting very slowly lower, presently at 1.4560.

10 pips is 10 pips......you still won $$..

Well, wait for price to go up a bit, then short when momentum weakens (candlesticks will get thin with longer wicks at the top of the move), then just short it, when you make some profits when the move weakens on the short, just close half the position and adjust your stop to Break Even (BE) + 1 and let it ride for the rest of the move as far as you can ride it.....
At that point, you can take another half of the balance of the position and move your stop lower once more and let her continue to ride as far as you can go.....that's the best way to do it in my opinion...on a good trend, you can milk it with little risk...


Worst can happen is price stops you at for 1 pip from your original entry...but you would have already taken partial profits....

You know, there's lots of news out today, and its probably bad advice, but if you took a long now using a very very small position and place your stop below the last swing low, maybe you'll get lucky and ride it back up to the top of consolidation....if not, you get stopped, but just an idea....maybe play with a mini lot or so....heh

.... until now i only trade GBP/USD but i see the price action of EUR/USD is more stable (more predictable) for day trader. GBP/USD has more volatility daily average around 150 pips in compare to EUR/USD just 110 pips .... please any advice from this forum ...

1. why do you prefer to trade EUR/USD?
2. how many pips do you get daily (average)?
3. which time frame is good for day trader?

as info i usually use 3 tfs: 5 m, 15m and 1 H ....

thanks ....

I prefer EURUSD because I can always hedge it against the USDCHF if I am off on my targets....
