The EURUSD range has been roughly $1.30-$1.35 for 10 weeks
and history suggests that a move following a break of such a
range will be either to the downside to $1.20 or the upside to
$1.45, according to Greg Anderson, G10 strategist at CitiFX, a
division of Citigroup in New York.

I think the A/U took off north around this time last year....I will submit that the cycles of government arent that ingenius....Although I think technically we should be sub 1.26 in the coming weeks....the likelihood that we are going to experience a QE ramp in equities and therefore propping up the euro could be in the cards.....Im flat.....If we touch the 3050 Monday...Ill go long again with a 30-40 pip SL.....


My one caveat is Gas Prices.....We have exhibited time and time again the $4 gas is the breaking point politically as well as financially....seems that $4 puts the Kabash on the printing....plus Election year stuff.....SO, the DOW / SPX has to be high for the political ramifications, yet the Gas has to be less than $4.....and we need to devalue the dollar for all the apparent reasons.... conundrum for sure....

All that being said....maybe the Euro might be in a +/-300 point range till November and we just buy it at 1.30-ish....and sell it at 1.33-ish

Can't trade based on that. Fact is, longs have better r:r than shorts right now.
But it depends which long ? depends on the position - the entry , stop and target ...

could be long from last Monday for e.g. , then it might not look so good

I don't know man. We're still within the 1.3-1.35 range technically, so I'll treat it as such until we break.

could be worth keeping an eye on these levels also for shorter term plays - 077 and 127 ... certainly an aggressively bearish week though last week

Does anybody know of a simple EA that closes a certain percentage of a trade at a predefined r:r ? Let's say I want to close half of it when it reaches a distance equal to the s/l. Bringing the SL to BE would be a nice bonus.

So much for chop. Looks like they are interested in dropping it.
