Its 9 pm here... But today I'm gonna stay the whole night if needed

But gonna make my today's profit limit lower, to increase possibility of getting some sleep

EDIT: hope so, PT. A nice strong EUR drop would be good for my mood and self-confidence right now.

Especially since I am exposed to any USD drops and when money does not flow to US Bonds I am getting into defcon4

Hah, if I could lever up my "after-Bernanke trades" I would not be trading now. I would be buying myself an island. Or a whole tropical country. Or a country with islands (Greece excluded, I still would not be that rich...).

First the suckers buy them. Then the ECB buys them at a discount on the secondary market and when the time comes the ECB sells them to the EFSF for face value.

Hi Tianle,
Welcome to EurAnalysis
Please read page 1 in order to familiarize yourself with the objectives and rules of this thread.
Here we discuss the Euro. Specifically the EUR/USD traded on spot market, not futures.
If this fits what you are looking for, I look forward to your future participation.
Cheers
PT
Thanks for the welcome, I'm new to Forex trading and I'm currently trading in the EUR future market (pretty much the same as eur/usd market)

I'm leaning towards bearish at this point, with a small short position at 1.3770. Want wait for the trend to mature before risking more. I will add to this position when I see the price break below 1.3676 point.

Well it is just their point of view.

Even if they are calling 1.20 because they want everyone to dump the euro so they can buy it at a cheaper price, it still has to go down for them to reach their objective.

No argument there, just saying take what they say with a grain of salt if you day trade.
