You're not gona miss it... cuz its just not gona happen you lack the news for that now... and 3225 is strong support before 3200 soo yea imagine this 3225 as the 3300 we saw today, triple down didnt break it last friday and it popped right back up... but this time, with this drop it might not pop way too high

but im hoping it will pop back to 1.3400

I hear ya.. but a short here... down to test 32.. could net 30-50 pips just by moving s/l on a ride down.. I'm not too good for that amount of movement.. the break of 32 would be bonus..

besides.. 3225 support was peirced.. hit 3210 (on my system).. I know it's not sustained.. but.. it could head there again..

And i'll probably won't do anything until 7:30AM (GMT+1) where the action begins

My daily pnl is negative today and half of that I owe to the crazy whipsawing of eur. I can't explain myself how on earth it got stopped out before the big move. My trade was short @ 1.3300, sl 1.3340 and tp 1.3220, where I ended up with 40 pips negative instead of +80.

Seriously, my head hurts, but I'm going to stay on the sidelines until I get full control of myself and can determine where did I go wrong.

Its hard to understand how did I screw it up with my stop loss. I'm still learning this thing and I'd appreciate if anyone can point me in a direction on how to determine a placement of sl's because this is not the first time something like this happens to me, it's just the most dramatic one.

not part of ass chart or 1.6 system. taken from pa. but i always liked this one.. too many hits to be random. 50% between lines are hits also.. i have a few dotted lines to show this. greece crap clutered chart. but the last number in the sequence is where the + slip then bounce happens.. just like 3215 now is doing. they become s/r..

You hang on from 3400ish? I left mine open last night and woke up to +154...I'm going to leave some of this open and just wait for some shorts for awhile.

This is looking to be a nice daily bearish engulfing bar too...

I'm going long on U/J here guys. 50 pip stop edit: lol, stop moved to BE plus 1

I closed that yen trade for +20, looking to go long again

Greece, Portugal, et al. will be OK in the long run. A little scary now, but imagine what would happen if it were allowed to collapse? It isn't going to happen.

Common sense tells me something is going to be done to fix this....

Worth a shot in my opinion. 3267 looks like a likely target right now.

it s done on purpose man. Look today euro was climbing up when trichet was speaking... the screens were flashing green. the signals were great. a lot of traders closed their shorts and entered long and then vlan the portugal and greece downgrade. dont you think the big guys knew like a few moments minutes before us ? of course they did. your s l got hit as many others... you have done nothing wrong, you played it by the books exactly as they wish you would. only advice : trade on larger tf, with smaller positions, laarger s loss (40 pips is way to little in my view) and you will do much better. you will not lose more because you will decrease your initial exposure and keep the loss to manageable proportions . but with a 100 pips s l and a smaller position size you would have made money today
