I agree on this. Only thing is...I think I've been saying it for months now...quite a few of them...so I've blown something on my analysis. I've been bottom fishing for ages now, but I still don't think it has arrived.

When it does...plenty of room to run...but its just, when?
Well not need to take any bottom in my case I am looking for a position trade so longer than a swing. I solve this by justs triggering on the quarterly for that particular move (miles away from triggering) ...mid swings shorts are only below 1.532x and the rest is daily moves and intraday that are entering in a range mode (so fade the lows/highs H4) after that test on 1.539x Daily S.

Trying to set up for a position play, too. Not interested in nailing the bottom, but also don't want hundreds of pips of drawdown. Was starting to feel pretty good about easing in about a month ago...then more QE was being talked about. I'm sure it is getting priced in as we go, but I'll wait. Bottom hunting on GJ, but it pays pretty quick, and/but... seems to still have NO bottom in sight!

Well with the quarterly you WONT have hundred of pips drawdown guarantee, plus a position trade require low to none leverage. Do you have cash in dollars? can you open a saving in pounds in your country?...do 75% of the position on cash the rest with a small few minimum leveraged lots...

hasn't the weekly high already touched off friday's low? good enough in my book given that different retail brokers open and close at different times, my two cents...

Market looks dead waiting news. I am aiming to short at the Daily R1 area which is confluenced with Daily EMA10, H4 EMA 50, SMA 35, and Daily R1 Pivot point. I usually enter with market orders but if this is hit during news I may attempt a pending sell order there....

P.S. Since you are a bunch of horny bastards in here, and since charts bore you to death, I am also attaching a boring picture from Greece....
