Got 54 pips from the break although if I left my original stops would have got around 100+

I think I will long again TP 1.6050 as a minimum

long as well on GJ TP 128.20

TP nearly touched yesterday at 1.6048.
it did touch now and price went above it as predicted.

still targetting 1.6340 minimum and I think we will see a 1.70 in a few months

just a hunch.

I don't know if I said it before but if price ends this week above 1.6020 then we broke the weekly trend and it should pop up some 300 pips minimum.

hello all

now i need to wait another setup
uff
At least you didn't go to sleep with a massive drawdown on your longs with price hovering above support like I did.

on another note... London seems disturbingly light in the loafers today, I thought we'd at least test 1.62 in one go.

Would that mean the Fed would have to buy ALOT more of it's own debt?
eh?

im very sorry 4you
sincerely i was going long on eur jpy near 110.20 (support line)
lucky me.... crash happened when i clicked mouse to open the position n broker did not accept price coz was already crashin in that exact second few seconds later price was 109

only a question of 1 or 2 seconds and i could have been fukked very badly n heavly.

then went on buy stop order after 1st h1 candle, remembering what did last year on euro crash (from122 to 100 in 6-7 hours)

was only pure luck!

It's just my theory. I can't see what is going on at that level of things, but there does seem to have been a lot of dollar dumping so who knows.

are we going in something like that triangle closing?

upper black trendline comes from highest levels (...) n now lies near 6250.
lower red comes from 4230 low.

big question is: have we got the fundamentals to breake up above 6250?
or will be another big sell like near 6340?

Didn't they become net sellers last month? I may be totally confused, best to take a nap before the NY Open.

China?

"The US Treasury Department said March 15 that China remained the largest foreign holder of US Treasuries despite being a net seller in January."

News in 13 mins... no action before then. Maybe more buying of GBP and EUR after the news deeper into supply and then a sell off... but I could be completely wrong!
