All eyes are now on the 1.29000 barrier because the Unemployment rate was the bigger and better news.
Take into acoount adp and wild speculation of 300k 500k figures maybe this number was dissappointing and we now see a move up after all the news is in .
we did have a big push down in anticipation of large numbers yesterday
making green pips large and red pips small this is my goal.

The next trigger I will be looking for to hold on to my trades is a positive open.

es still up, 10yr below 3.44. Ignore oil today, we have the 2 month fund roll so that is skewed. Locked in decent profits now to safeguard the possible swings that Heli-Ben could well cause in 20 mins.

Here is a M15 chart using the template that Kill sent out yesterday. Hope it helps you.

Sweet! Very helpful.

PA against MML justifies the Long view. Although I'm sure the fundie reasoning is far more important. Having said that, this Long is only a retrace IMHO.
A pip is only worth it if you know how much you risked to earn it

Bit of a mixed bag in EU, DAX up, FTSE down, Spain in a mess (unemployment now at 20%), 2970 needs to hold for my long to play out. If that goes I will take my profits of the table.

To play Devil's Advocate here:

USD Index can't stay above 81.00

The pair bounced off a critical Fibonacci extension level

M15

http://i55.tinypic.com/zswa69.png

Risk appetite has returned, and the major sentiment that brought us here in the first place, has subsided.

If we keep dropping here, it's only because the snowball has picked up steam, but as far as Technicals,Fundamentals and Sentiment go, there is no reason to continue a plunge.

And critical Fan Line support on Weekly

Paul1: The price will be held below 1.3000 until 10am for the expiry

Monday coming Options maturity expires at

1.3200 for 100million
1.2900 for 150million
1.3100 for 250million

So we are looking at a 300 pip range between now and monday

I am on the sidelines until the big boys come on in 10 min. I tend to agree with you though.

Covered. Flat, waiting for Bernie.

EDIT: I see no reason to short this right here, wait for NY/Bernie

this is the reason... sorry i couldnt warn you earlier.. but it found real resistance on the bottom TL of the downtrend channel.. already 30 pips in green but that might be all.. but it doesnt do much for euro if it cant even break the 1st downtrend line?!

good luck...

where do u find these kinds of data , please ?
seawinde: I am monitoring 13 different news feeds in real time. The information I just shared with Paul1 is from the dow jones news feed.

The Eur is going to rally but not until after the 10am Vanilla expiry.

I will be taking some profits now on some of my shorts.

you have never traded options expiry day and know about the impact, don't you?

you will under no circumstances see eur above 3000/3050 prior to 10am! so 30 minutes left.

now go back to demo.
