Back Down 1,3640???? Do yoy really mean this?? Confused no ?!?! We are bellow 1,3640-50 how could we go down
i mean tomorrow it can go max 3640-50 and then down less chances to go down from there because its a week high now so eur will try to break a month high but for that high it will need some retracement and then iit will shoot up but it has to go down and then go up..let see how it goes..

So that really is how it is? Just like every where else...? On days like tomorrow, all the hot shots get to go home early/take vacation holiday and they leave the green peas to cover. lol I had no idea seriously but I'm learning

yes, the pros just glued a post-it to the screen, where it says: "sell everything we got @ 2:30"

It's tough to make public calls.. 2 people remember your winners and 200 remember your losers ..

I wonder if anyone has historic information about Jim Kramer's calls? I'd love to know how he really does over time.

I see good resistance at 1.363.. more at 1.366 and then 1.3695 .. The problem is that good resistance becomes almost meaningless in an extremely thin environment.
I agree with your take on resistances, but by "extremely thin environment" are you referring to most major market movers being out (for Good Friday and possibly Monday) and only smaller players still trading? Thus the market will be sideways with little up or down change?

That would be my take for the next couple of days, but being new at this I want to be sure.

Much thanks.

And as Sky says we won't ever see 1.32 again on the EU.
WE won't see 1.32 but we could see low 1.34 and that's should do it..

My brokers bucket shop steal my first Short, by taking out my SL, I reentered

again, now with SL above 1.36, just to stay in the game.. EUR still very

fragile in my view.. In mean while looks like I'm going to lose this one

as well... I don't like when pair moves just few pips above your SL and then

drop 100 pips... This is unprecedented drop of USD, Looking at all currencies right now

They are all sitting at the tops with complete patterns.. We'll see, I don't

betting on much action till Monday..

Since this intervention/manipluation/outright bullshit began a couple of months back, it has become increasingly hard, for me, to get ahead and stay ahead of the 8 ball. Mostly is due to the time zone I am in and that's just too bad for me.....the moves that I could scalp happen when I'm asleep, and the position trading that I like to do just isn't working well for me this year. As I have said, a few times now, (here and here and in various other posts), there is no fundamental reason for the eu to be where it is. I don't know why the 'powers that be' want the eu up here, and I'll wager that they cannot keep it here for ever. When the drop comes....it will come big.....but no doubt I'll be asleep when it does....lol...

So, since about a month ago, I realised that my position trading just won't work properly for me due to my time zone (10%), and interference (90%). However, I'm no quitter and I am well up on my original fund stake from about 8 months ago when I went 'live' after demoing for about a year. During that past month I have been demoing a new way (for me) to trade, and after Easter I will take it 'live.' I'll let you know how it goes in due course.

One thing that I need to say is that during my develpment of this system, I have been helped a hell of a lot by Gator, Acumen and a few others, without them even knowing!!

My iggy list has grown massively this year too, which has also been helpful by sorting the 'wheat from the chaff'.

This is a great forum and I will check in from time to time, but I may not post so much in future....for a while anyway.

Good luck all...have a great Easter

RealJumper- keep us posted on that new style, I'm having a hard time staying ahead as well- the Eu has pummelted me these last 3 or 4 weeks- almost defies odds- If you flip a quarter enough times you hit 50/50- I wish my odds were that good- with decent money mgt you could clean up

They may run at the Daily TL and 61.8% fib that are around 3609 and there is also that 3622 area that is highly important. I hope it works for you, I know what you mean about getting stopped out to the pip right before a massive haul... Sadly, it's happened to me many times.

I very surprised this E/U pair is not falling for a retrace. All the other pairs I follow closely are pulling back a bit now. The G/U, G/J, A/U, U/J in the last 2 H. E/U and Gold are flat lining though..
I wonder if the correlation of the E/U to Gold is back en vogue.

Real jumper- "..there is no fundamental reason for the eu to be where it is"

I agree and believe these markets spend most of their time moving (or being moved) away from where the largest amount of positions are situated. Period. All the big houses/banks have an idea of order flow etc..

I hope you keep the battle going and beat the &%$@ bastards because I enjoy reading your posts!

I took a short on GBP/JPY, my stop is above 65. Good RR and it's what they call a "touch trade" in the J16 thread. First 4 hr down bar and should be beob.

We'll c how it goes, this is a very small trade for me

that's because seems that 2 institutions want to buy yen selling 800 millions pound, starting a huge retrace on gj

those pros seems to be interested first on huge pressure at selling the pound, and after the euro

Last post....lol.....

I had 3570-ish earmarked as my 'line in the sand' in the event the eu goes north...against all logic. Well, here we are and I'd love to short this right here and then enjoy the weekend, but I don't trust it....still...it is what it is!!
