Hi taxe91, i agree. It has been a roller coaster ride today with both bulls and bear earning money but in the end it is the bear's territory. I have attached my chart and as you can see the pin bars are nicely rejected on certain levels for bears and bull to play. As I type this, the bears are in control. Anyway, my concerns are only the 8HR TF since I am at work typing this haha ...

Good luck to all and have a green week ahead
Looks like lower high and 1.0060 strong support to break.. Once broken, down parity and 0.9900

Where are you shorting?

My instinct tells me 1.014

BTW. 1500GMT, Portugal will release troika report will be balistic if bad report
I would only enter short above 1.015, apart from that, targeting mostly longs...

If it goes above 1.015 or below parity, I will short. But it will be for 0.01 units. I will long for more than 0.01 units in the stage the pair is in right now.

10 yr Italian bond is back above 7... Ecb can't keep buying indefinitely unless ecb prints money indefinitely too
hey, not exactly shorting just yet. i missed that original move from 1.04 to 1.0050 last week, and instead of trying to find a spot to jump in short ive just been scalping longs, as you wouldve seen from my posts. im too skeptical about the ability of this pair to drop down very far below parity so it wouldnt be good risk/return for me to short at these levels. if we miraculously crawl back up to 1.04 in the coming weeks then i'll start shorting again

wow i actually got caught in that mess as well, heres my post from just before that 200 pip bounce:

Quoting taxe91
well im running 3 shorts so far from 0370, 0380 and 0270 respectively. it does look like we're getting a considerable bounce off support at the moment (50 pips and counting). if we manage to somehow crawl our way back to 0300 i will probably add another short, unless good news comes out of europe in which case all bets are off. i dont want to be caught in front of a bull freight train.
i did close 1 short at 0220 because there was a hint of bullish divergence on the charts, but i let the other 2 run, and unfortunately i did get caught head on by a bull freight train that night

have revamped my approach to TP's and SL's since that night

Parity is a BIG psycho level. Crossing it demands strong push and it will push hard either crossing up or crossing down.

I'm fairly new to forex and have so far been trading based on fundamentals. But I've been told that technical is the way to go, and hence am now very confused...

So much for the vouch system guess being "experienced and wise" doesn't mean you know the basics these days.

Wisdom Vouching System

Overview
The Wisdom Vouching System (WVS) is used to estimate the trading experience of individual FF members. Members vouch for others they feel are experienced and wise traders, and the number of vouchers a member has can be determined by an icon on their posts and member profile. For example, a member with one voucher will display http://www.forexfactory.com/images/misc/1kt.gif, a member with two vouchers will display http://www.forexfactory.com/images/misc/2kt.gif, and so on up to eleven where they'll display http://www.forexfactory.com/images/misc/10+kt.gif.
