I like that, you are POSITIVE for the EU to be NEGATIVE.

You must be working for the government.

Hello Freddy, enjoying margaritas already? Do you have any open positions right now? I have a small short I leave open last Friday.

Ach - jo jo jo - hey - FRANCE is not a 'banana republic' - then VWD Eschborn (German Reuters Services) will rate the USA down soon as well. Ha ! ! !

Anyway - as expected - see my remark one hour before - EU is going up at first. Recovery games is the market rythm at first...


Possibly we will see one more cross of beyond 2331 - 2354 (which is my target at first) and later even 2370/ 95 area in case of an extention...

Supports seen at entry points 2257 - 2248 or 2209 - 2179 in case of an extention...

Here's a question to the enlightend in the bunch.


If 95% of the people think the euro is obviously going down

&

95% of people loose money in foreign exchange

what will the euro do?
I don't think 95% traders here think EUR is going down.
Make a poll.
From Greece is only 2% Europe GDP to Bailout 1 trillion to Germany intervention. People have been buying all DIPS. So they are the 95% of people losing money fighting the trend.

You would not expect people who sold this thing are losers.

So EUR may still go down until it stops. And when things will change and the trend will change we are going to go long. Until than you either short or stay out or be 1 of the 95% losers.
Rule No.1: Never lose money. Rule No.2: Market is always right !

This is why I don't post anything of real substance anymore. My last swing trade, I posted all sorts of great analysis as to why I thought that 1.35 was the beginning of a big swing higher. All I did was have to justify my positions and have just about everybody tell me what an idiot I was.

16 big figs and $100k later, I was right.

See, nobody respects things that they don't agree with. This dude didn't post, I like 1.17 area as a swing trade, I guess I don't see what you see. The large majority are absolute in their convictions here, which...
People see different things on the same chart, but that is because people have a different trading strategies and plans. Personally I am not taking any long positions on EU now, but that is just me, as I can't see the current trend turning. I don't trade retraces against the trend as I have been burned too many times trying to do this myself, but again that is just me and my trading style. Horses for courses.

Swing traders will always be labelled as the "smelly finger brigade" but they also get the biggest risk/reward ratios for the times they do get it right and therefore you only have to be right 25% and you can still make shedloads of money.

Swing traders will always be cast as the mad trader because they are going against the trend and they will get the most abuse on any forum. Best to ignore and once the trade is in your favour post the resulting chart with a link to your original post to say... I told you so, are you in with me yet... pushing the price even further into your favour

I will wait for price confirmation before I put in a swing trade @ 1.17 regardless of what nearly all of the fundies will be saying, but lets see what happens when we get down there. Who knows what will happen between now and then!

I wish you the best of luck with your trades and hope you have many green pips.

Price could slip as far as the red numbers. If this projection doesn't get blown up completely at some point. would be nice not to have to stay up to watch PA at these levels just set and forget. News probably gonna blow this up.

BYW, when scalping or day trading I can be long or short regardless of the long-term trend, but that is a different strategy and trading plan of mine

PERFECTO, as it is your turn to pay the HAPPY HOUR today.

but the reason that I have this long is because of a retracement I expect after the drop in the Friday trading session and had taken my shorts already off ....sorry, OUT before market close.

Oh, retracements are not my strong... those are difficult, I wait till they finish and then open a position resuming the trend, 'cause you know, the trend is my friend too.

And btw, I mix my own margaritas... lol

Hello everyone. Ready for another week?! Hope we all do well. Last night I went to the Marlins baseball game and got to witness history as Roy Halladay pitched a perfect game. Only the 20th in major league baseball history. I took some photos, they're all from the 9th inning, enjoy...

Good question. Time can be +/- 1 or two hours. Levels sometimes fall short or go over a little. Sometimes it skips a bit and goes on to the next level. Sometimes it's perfect hour for hour. I just consider it along with conventional analysis.
Thank you for your reply. i was just curious cause i try and follow them
