Euro being propped up, shorts are all scared shitless now.
Just interested in how you think they are propping it up. I agree that something isn't right. Any clues and how long can it last?

Trading Cat, how do I find those Sostratos pages you post? I found sostratos.com (and a few similar like sites) a while back when reading these pages, but I can't find my way to that Daily Strategy.

Happy Days :-)

Don't confuse public minimize your chart and look larger picture.

To break downtrend line EU needs to go over 1.28.

1.2674 FIBs 23.6 on the way.. Don't think this going to go higher

than that.. Fundamentally speaking EU should be pushing 1.10 now..
i disagree, fundamentally speaking EUR/USD should be oscillating between 1.20 and 1.30 ... 1.1 would be undervalued, but that doesnt mean that it is not going to happen anyways

Thanks TCat for posting this from Sostratos. They are right most of the days this week. I was wondering if they have predicted yesterday's bullish havoc! Did I miss your post yesterday?

Propping what up exactly?
Data from the US all this week has been piss poor, whereas data from Europe has been less poor, (figuratively speaking). Look, I don't know exactly what is about to happen, but there is no such thing as propping up when we have seen such a move AND when we have no clue who's buying.

All this fair value stuff is nonsense IMO. Fair value compared to what?

Just go with the flow.

euro/usd pair is usually correlated with stocks and commodities. Last few days correlation has completely broken down. Very rare you see this moving up this much in a straight line without any retrace. This is because any selling pressure is being matched with somebody buying. US needed weaker dollar last few days to prevent free fall of US markets with critical levels being broken on S&P and all the negative economic news. Everything in all markets is related. When the correlation between stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies all breaks down, its because the markets aren't running freely, or in otherwords are being manipulated.

There is that weekly resistance at 2622 that I have been posting about since the 24th of last month. The break of 2600 could be the Friday trap for those looking to jump on this move after the fact. Proceed with caution as always. 1.3000 looks good but not today. back towards pivot around 2535 would be more likely to further frustrate those that missed the big move up to begin with.

Bad economic data from US usually causes US markets to go down which strengthens the dollar. Why was this thing dumping back in 2008 when banks were failing in US? Risk aversion..

Interesting analysis. I am amazed with these two days madness too. I observed that only the few spiking EU candles is where the correlation between DJIA and EU breaks down and after that when EU is sideways with little movement, that is perfectly followed by the DOW. I also think that the spikes are the manipulations by big boys.

So what typically happens after they are done intervening? Is that time for a retrace/resumption of prior trend?, or a new direction?

Unlikely that the market gives up a 100 pip move to the newbies who missed the earlier move by blowing past a weekly resistance. Especially on a Friday. Much more likely to get 'em onboard just to leave them sad faced as I said before.
