Something to keep in mind..

1.3568 seems like a real resistence..IMO...above that we have 1.3580 ...50% of 1.3798 to 1.3361

and 1.3632 is the level which should had been tested on the way down.....but missed!

Not gold here. Became too expensive for intraday trading but agree TA intraday longs.

On the euro, wasn't expecting such a momentum at lunch time to ride a swing up so I cleared all (small position) at H4 R (1.350x). Now with the ECB announcement it opened 1.360x but I wasn't prepared for that and now is too late in my charts to jump in again so it seems I will be sidelined in the euro for the next few hours.

This makes me think more and more about the corrective movement here in the euro. The bottom/panic-line wasn't broken decisively and Asia is likely to cover some of their trades today/later on.

BBL, cu tomorrow.
Quoting sisse
Well not in a hurry I guess for that move is better wait for the confirmation on a rejection weekly lows if you want play it, missing the 1st 100 ticks in a +400 wave is nothing,.... CU tomorrow mate.....here looking to the other side 1.331x/1.329x first if roll confirms it....

Yeap mate a good FA. Its a official ECB announcement. However, we still have the one I have been waiting for which is Greek funds confirmed by Germany this week so I will not jump the gun yet on a swing trade.

In any case, so far that ECB FA happened +/-140 ticks below that TA option we had last week.... Let see how it goes. 1.331x / 1.329x is the target for the swing low (daily and weekly trend) and the retrace options in the current wave are 1.360x TA and 1.380x with the Greek FA confirmed trigger...

Plenty of trades and option for this week and next one so ...we have guarantee action whatever the case.

Makes me think, bro... what is disturbing me, is the new low on the weekly so far, as it closed below the 50%-fib of the whole move from 1.18-1.49, but that is too big for the weekly and more a case for the monthly...

We could very well be in for a ranging corrective pattern... we'll see, I'm cautious anyway.

Good observation. Well I agree with you, is a yearly move so a quarterly closing below will be more telling than a weekly close in that range (btw, quarterly/monthly close this week ...and about to confirm reversal on those charts)

Without FA in the picture and assuming there is no cataclysmic events (euro collapse or double dip, etc) , your mid term (next quarter) TA outlook match mine.

Once it completes the move to 1.331x/1.329x (is almost there) with max overshoot to 1.297x (in this v broad timeframe), consolidation in a range till the end of the year with a close around 1.37xx area.....
