Hard luck bud. I think the markets have been generally difficult this week, lots of parabolic moves and chop, you've done well to have a good week, i'm set for a very average one indeed.

Yes, not good today. I've still got half a long position on- it turns out bailing at 63 wasn't so bad after all! I may add half back in soon- we're nearly back to where we started this morning without any bull push on the way down. Straight up and straight down. Tough trading conditions

From forexlive: EURUSD

The 159 pip trading range for the week (high reached today) is the 3rd lowest weeks trading range going back to December 2007

Should be busting out like a rocket next week.

I know it's a long way off, but the hourly chart is starting to look more promising- even if it falls off a bit from here, we may end with a tweezer bottom

It's clear on this chart that the momentum candles are definately from the bulls

I'm still in, SL under tweezers, but I'm thinking of closing soon, what with news soon, my stops likely to get hit anyway
