Yeah love six nations, just wish I had foxtel. I played Prop forward so was always a bit slow.
Ok, I like a challenge, here are some charts (just jokes, just got home).
Ha ha can't do driving and charting just yet bro, but if I have a few more weeks like this last one, maybe I can afford an assistant to do it for me
Anyway, below are my daily, weekly and monthly charts showing the 55ema. We have strong rejection from the daily and closed above the weekly. Monthly will be a road block for sure but it is flattening out. It is only 1 ema among...
Off to bed now, wife is getting annoyed.
Come with me if you want to live....

I agree, but how about a pop up to 1.60ish, after all we are not that far away from it right into that supply with that bearish engulfing on the weekly chart creating a bull trap and bam down we go?
So in effect we get a bear trap first as people are shorting from here... it pops up, people reverse, creates the bull trap and then wam bam, thank you mam! Mr Market has just taken the novice retailers to the cleaners on both occassions.

Just an idea... and it is what I would do if I was a market player/institution.

The daily/weekly charts are perfectly setup for these traps and you know how this bitch likes to trap!

Until the elections in Greece in April. Watch out for those opinion polls as the market begin to realise that the far right and far left will stick their finger up at troika. They are both gaining serious support as the Greek people are fed up with the current coalition government and the ever increasing austerity measures.

Hey Smikester sorry I am driving home from the football (rugby union). Our state team (new south wales) were in front of Queensland with 30 seconds to go, all we had to do was hold onto the ball and the game was ours. But our dickhead of a winger decides to kick the ball Queensland catch the ball and run 80 meters to score just as the full time siren goes. What an arsehole, I hope they drop him (and fine him) for being such a loser) dickhead!!! Sorry, no hidden divergence (see above) I just don't think straight sometimes that's all, sorry...
What a muppet! I see England getting stuffed by Wales

Wrong there my friend. I am Dutch but I have lived in the UK for 30 years now. I support whoever is winning...

England, Ireland, Italy, Wales, Scotland, France is the order in which I support them. As for you southern hemisphere guys, you come way down the list

Yeah, but not until the latter part of 2012. We still have some unfinished business at 1.54... well that is how I am reading it at the moment - http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...81#post5412181

i am thinking that 5455 took care of business with the mess down there. i say that because i don't have any more of "those" s/r lines below that one

1.6 is an interesting possibility. But I don't have a bearish engulfing on my weekly? Also I don't hold with this novice retailers victim theory. I sometimes see what looks to me like stop hunting but I always think if I'm not properly positioned I deserve it. That's the positive view.
Gone to a better place

Of course, I will play it how I see it because anything can happen, but at the moment this is how I see it and I could be wrong.

I would imagine theres a ton of stops above 1.6 it will be interesting
