well.. I did.. was late for it though. however so far unsuccessful with e/u to gain something good, but hopefully this last trade will bring me something.

wonder what NY is in the mood for today.
Like always knee jerk reaction from yesterday needed to be cleared 1st before the real move in the euro...ES is definitively aiming to 119x at least after rejection of swing high yesterday but buyers at last breakout point 122x still pushing the bid (3rd test this morning but out of NY) so it's just a matter of time. Fading opening range on R is again by far the best r:r ....

as long as 3635 holds on the hour, give or take, bears still have a chance to re-emerge me thinks..
close this hour below 3608..and the bears might be back, bulls have a little breathing room now, might even try to push up towards 3690/96...think I'm done for the day...

Give it till NY bro...ECB is heavily intervening in the bond market and Italian bonds going down fast below 7.xx so now is done and we can move without panic...

agreed.. we do need a trigger to make it sweeet
I cashed in some empties at the liquor store and added to the short needs to crack 3600 or I will be spiteful and cover

So you like the adrenaline rush on panic ....we are being so spoiled the last couple of years with panic that it will be hard when stability comes back to the markets. We used to have 1 day a year or not even that with those moves, now 1 week without one and we get depress ...

Like trading a 60-70 pip daily range and when you hit a 100 pipper once in a while , it is party time

To put it in perspective in the euro, sep month range in the euro cover +/- 8 to 10 months of trading before 2008...that's a lot but also intraday and daily volatility the difference are significant...
