3670, it is just messy to trade. I am only scalping 20-30 pips at a time, counters in the face of this equity selloff are messy and not for the fainthearted.

Ridiculous. Let see if serves as a "reason" for a deeper pullback to reload shorts. H4 confirmed rejection of lows and daily/weekly lows in play. Looking for entry long on the failure to break lows next wave down with US on board.

Still on alert mode on any rumors, downgrades and etc....

There is a short scalp in the making here of 3640. Days like this you'd better be spot on on your entries, duck and dive. Don't go looking more then 30-40 pips ahead for now.

CDS just touched 4,000bps, the FI boys are really driving the agenda here this morning. 1yr touched 109%

Interesting to see what Moody's is going to do today, their 90 day review period expires tonight.

The picture is too clear. There is certainly no doubt that Greek default must lead to downgrades on EZ banks. There is no way to avoid that.

Timing wise, and purely based on my personal TA marks on last "downgrades", it will need a deeper pullback and late before the close. 1.380x is the one I have in mind ...plenty of time so we'll see

Just proving to be a bump in the road so far. No longs taken off of it yet.

Edit: Wicks are starting to look like demand consumption as well. Going to wait for a close below then may jump on board with.

Yup, we are still dancing around the same number. Loads of scalps nothing substantial yet.
