Hi mate

I would question wether there is indeed a weekly down trend ?...sure there was a downside breakk of the congestion shown by horizontal red channel below and a LL below it at that 5270 (current yearly lo) and now bounce back inside it ...but in respect of overall price action-peak/valley analysis there is no established doewntrend yet on this t/f. It's 100sma remains below it's 200sma so general sentiment could be said to bearish on this weekly t/f, but this is as yet unsupported by PA.

We could however see a classic congestion 2nd b/o play - ie a false 1st b/o of congestion and a pullback to it and a truer 2nd b/o in direction of the 1st failed b/o...?: Time will tell.

Question is: Tomorrow being friday and all the above considered plus weekly down trend - are we going short here to, say, 1.43?

Thanks for your input. I agree it is questionable but I generally look at the 200ma for my personal definition and it's pointing down and we are trading below it. I'm not going to argue with your analysis because it's too valuable. I'm going to have to read up on "classic congestion 2nd b/o" now. Cheers. It's the cocktail hour, here..

[quote=Fudomyo;5079082]sleeping on the job again, huh?
actually, I hit my target, so I'm going to be sensible and close here too. was hoping for EU 61.8% at 4253 to pull us along to the TL cross, but this is good enough.

Yup..a little workout, a bite to eat ...i'll be right back on it...

No chance of seeing a tar and feathering and pulled backwards through the town walls, then? Thanks for the charts. My post won't do justice as I've had a couple of merrymakers.

Easily scared? Good NFP might mean stronger equities, weaker dollar. I hope so because my Swissie trades are going really well. What's this gosh? Did you go to Narkover School as well?

It's tempting indeed, but I'll let it consolidate more. After passing the alligator maybe I'll get in on the first pullback. Then I will see it reaction to the DP and daily 50.

And most likely, long GBPAUD will open the gate for me to short cable (thanks ovaforty)

I am not feeling any reversal in sentiment as yet.
