Good Morning. Was here till 4:30am... what a night!

Saxon, you've got 30 pips on A/U right now? Are you seeing a long opportunity to 9145?

Oh, I was in UCHF and EU, my T-Stops got hit with +20 pips. I am just looking to AU now to see if there are any ops coming up.

I'm going to post all my pairs with areas that I think are key friction areas. I'll have it all up soon.

I want to say that A/U is going up to 9145. It needs to retouch the 150ema on M15 and 62ema on H1. Stochs on H4 are in favor.

Here are some of my charts, they are based on confluence, fib, S/R, TL and "00". I am direction-less on a lot of pairs and PA probably wont reach a lot of these. These are just key areas I will be watching.

Also, PA does not need to hit those exact spots if there is no TL intersection. If spot is based on horizontal S/R then it can be significant at any touch. For example, PA on EU is near first spot, watch PA before any trades though and make your own judgement.

Oh ya, EU 1.2900 will also be a 50 retrace of last drop.

Guys, thing's changed comparing to the last couple of months imo, I see a top in US.equities , I expect the fall accelerate sooner than later. Having said that I favor selling A/U N/U A/J N/J C/J and buying U/Cad,
The Chart is S&P500 futures

I absolutely agree. However, I would like to continue trading both sides as long as possible. There will always be retraces to long for 20 or so pips!

When do you think we will see 50 fib? I do agree that would be a perfect place to sell

PA is near second target. 1st one worked awesome. Since this is counter-trend, I would not expect as large a move

Is it just me, or does the EURO seem like a pretty safe bet to get at least 1.30 out of it on the long side... not sure how high it'll go over... but it seems a given... look at the GBP when it lost 1.50, the USD/CAD when it lost 1.0000.... these big psychological numbers usually get crossed multiple times... A safer play would be to short the USD/CHF though (practically the same play though as the EUR/CHF has been locked at the hip)

Long story short, even if the EURO eventually goes to parity or lower, there is a very safe bet that it'll cross the 1.30 handle a few more times before it's next big push down.

Disclosure: I'm a USD bull but I can't not play the EUR long back to 1.30 right now, especially with it at 1.28.
