What happened to Euro just now ?
A big spike up on Eur/Usd and Eur/Jpy, when there is no real reported news at forex factory!!

Edit:
Now things look too ugly, so going to eat something and wait for the news in 30m.

What a roller coaster
Risked a GU long on the last M5 bar before the news, seeing what looked like a test to the lows, and thinking... "it has to retrace something!"
It's +30 and with SL to BE... just wish I could guess if it's going all the way back up (wishful thinking
)!

Are you getting tempted????
Check it out
I saw M15 what looked like an UpThrust, then decide to go down M5 to check for NoSupply and enter based on NoSupply on 5min.
Bad mistakes on both entries.
Will post charts probably tomorrow as just want to see what happened with it now.
Gbp/Usd should have been tempted on the way up and on the way down.
Saw the same signal just before the red news today, but thought waited after news, action just too fast from there.
Now just observe the action now.
Today's actions a bit too wide spread and fast.
Thanks for your chart.

OK... to keep it realistic, will be watching price action at 1.5785 (for +50), and maybe 1.5800... assuming it does get there.
No signs of weakness for now, even a potential NS forming.
Turned a bad start into a beautiful day, after all

the shakeout (on EU in my case) almost got me too! i was loading more on the way down. had to break a rule of gold and lowered my sl to the next support. good thing i did: got to a couple of pips of sl and then... you know the rest!
Big Boss, yesterday this question came up: do u mind if we post any other "tools" besides VSA, like TLs and channels or pivots or whatever? hope not as i already did in the past.
(looking at my charts short at 3570-80 would be even better but i don't think it will go that far today)
