I can pack in 5 minutes, although I don't know why I'm bothering to trade this PA mess this morning, packing might be a cheaper way to spend the morning.

I was waiting for the daily close of the dow. It has closed just above the green lows which adds some weight to the upward scenario on Wednesday, but there might be a spike down to 10200 first. Holding my longs as long as it doesn't go below there.

The Dollar index looks like it will do a 0.4 point retrace during London. I'll look for some au and eu short opportunities once this is complete.

Some thoughts on S&P.

S&P made it down to the June lows at 1017 on the last day in June, this had been my target early in June but I gave up on it when it started bouncing from the Q2 lows at 1035. Note to self first thoughts are usually correct.

This week should move down into 986 and then possibly down to 969 which is the yearly pp and my target for a low for the year. I m going to start building long positions again from 986 down to 969, if below there then I will bail as that means price should go much much lower.

The dollar index is also in a make or break situation this week I think, if it can't find support above 84 this week then I see it back into 80.2 before it does any move higher. This would easily put eu back above 1.30.

AU should reach 8270 this week. Monthly target for July is 8060.

Hi all, I am back from my break and ready to get back into trading.

At the moment the only positions I am holding are some short au contracts from 8865. I'm hoping to hold these into the yellow July lows at 8060.

EU I see moving higher this week into at least 1.3062, but first because of the bounce off the green highs on Friday there is probably going to be a move down until price catches up with the green lows early in the week. If this happens then I will be a buyer.
I see EU continuing up into early August before I will be looking for the next swing down. This should match with about 80.2 on dx.

I decided to close this short based on the close of the last 4hr bar. The bounce off the green lows and close above 8651 is bullish and should setup a move higher possibly as far as the green highs.

Closed at 8650 +215 pips.

The reason I decided to exit so early when I said I was looking for 8060 is because I am also expecting markets to remain volatile until the S&P reaches 970, so when I have pips in my hand I will be taking them more readily. However I still expect to see 8060 in the near future.

GU, I have a target on gu of 1.5502 this week. If price comes down into the green lows on Tuesday then I will buy. The exact level won't be set until the end of this 4hr bar.

EU, I was hoping that eu would catchup with the green lows this week for a buy setup but they haven't moved up far enough on Tuesday. Because of the breakout of the blue highs last week eu should continue to move up but first it would be good to see it retest the breakout at 1.2796, I was hoping this would matchup with the green lows.
I think that Tuesday has a downward bias before it moves higher this week. I will be looking for long opportunities around 1.28 area if it gets there.

AU, the current setup shows a possible retest of the 8840 area before moving down again. This depends a lot on how the S&P trades on Tuesday. I have a lot of support for the S&P at the 1050-55 area, if this holds then I see consolidation until the end of July, but if this breaks then probably a quick trip back to the lows for both these markets.

Support off the weekly lows on a Monday usually results in a close on the highs on Friday, which gives me a clue that support in the S&P will probably hold. Resistance at 8718 held on Monday, possible dip to green lows if other markets dip on Tuesday. I am probably not going to trade au again this week.

I have taken longs on eu at 1.2937, this is based on the test and holding of support at 1.2927 and also the daily open above the gmt midnight daily pivot at 1.2934. Price should continue up to at least 1.2994 on Tuesday. My first target is 1.3062 which is the weekly highs, remaining contracts will be held until August highs. Stop is below todays lows at 1.2927. If below here then my original analysis stands and I will wait till 1.28 to take more longs.

GU long orders got hit at 1.5155, stops have been moved to be. The target is 1.55, first though it needs to get above the green midpoint.

EU longs got stopped at be. I think this pair can trade a little lower yet, waiting till the 1.2800 area for another shot.
