i think we are going to see another attempt to break the 86.25 on USX tonight or tomorrow.
last time (6 hour ago) in that lvl( 86.25), eu/usd was 1,2170, right?

12 hr chart... check out how the price is "bending" the lower band w/o any retrace back into the channel. That's usually a continuation sign.

Piercing the band almost always gives retrace rather soon ((depending on the TF involved of course)), but when you have a Failure to retrace like this, that's always worth putting the old Stink Eye on...

6hr chart also Closes current candle at 7pm CST (same as 12h) and breaks down the detail for you candle watchers. Some of the Retracement Over signs were just too obvious...

Waiting for PA to confirm what I'm already seeing. All shorts intact... and holding.

They might have kept the S&P cash on the plus side of 1040 but not the futures.

Hit a low 1030.25 and presently floating around 1036.50

Keep in mind the spread of about 4-5 points

I'm a neophyte with the technicals, but I understand the fundamentals well. The trend over the last couple of years has been risk on - money flows out of the USD and JPY; risk off - money flows into the USD and JPY.

I chose to go long one the strongest currencies - the USD and short the weakest currency - the EUR. (There are a couple of other minor currencies in worse shape but they're not nearly as liquid).

I understand Masrim's concern about the US economy and share those concerns. However, the USD (and JPY) is the best looking horse in the...
Thats a great post, thanks.

Yea i like this range idea a lot and ive been saying this the past week.....ur sr and pivots are in agreement with my entries, so i get a type of warm fuzzy feeling inside

anyways, I'm going long (wow did I just say this?!) (orders staggered) b/n 2108-2080....stops just below 2000. This trade has a great RR ratio and the way I see 2000 as a large barrier protection makes me feel even better about it. Target is 2460 high, from which ill short for 2080 as target.....2500 should act as a strong opts barrier as well for summer ranging (if this is the case?). Ive set my orders, so either way long or short from approx 2100 or 2460.....

Look how precisely they touched bottom line of the downtrend chanel !
You can seen also the bulish area. (over the line) I hope it is not only corrective chanel. It stil looks it is but I think they will not touch top line and the bottom line of chanel should be broken.
Bears are not enough strong to break neckline but they will do soon... I hope :-))

I think youve overslept

You should have done that 1 MONTH ago and short it at 1.24XX week ago... that would make up your plan perfectly... good job on charts mate, but that was HISTORY

summer ranging (if this is the case?)....
Caveat... this is shaping up to be a "non-typical" summer... acceleration of the commercial properties default, the whole EU mess, very strained int'l situations on several fronts, etc...

So the typical "summer range" may be a non-starter this time... Just remembering mid July '07...


Step softly my friend... no one wants to hear that "click"

((and to clarify... the "Huge Range" I was referring to was the Daily Pivot range... ))

yea man thats the only sense of doubt i have....this eu historically does pretty bad in july.....and those were in "boom times" before july 08......we'll see how it approaches 2100, should tell a lot whether this range is shakespeare. If its clear its gonna plow through 2100 ill pull my orders....

i know.. i think its just a retracement and then continue the down trend so i'm not against it, and its just how it looks now for me. it can always turn around and change my orders. but thanks for the notice

around 61.8 fibo should be a nice point, i think it will make it just a little bit further with max of around 1.2260 and then down again.
