DislikedSisse, may I ask you to correct my post if you find anything?
Btw, the original point of discussion is quite obvious. If they come up with some empty statement (and they will) how high can hope rally run? I think it may be very high (up to, 285) and am staying out.

So far very early comments and expectations on the summit are as follow:
- No real Banking Union just plans for making plans (-)
- No mutualization of debt (no eurobonds) and worst some real steps towards fiscal union (-)
- Technicalities on solving the short term bond problems via more bond buying with a bit more leverage and freedom for the ECB (which is + short term so check those bonds markets)
- A serious "Maastricht Treaty style" framework for the long term (5 to 10 years) to draw the path for fiscal union (starting with banks supervision and prolly after a EZ "Ministry of Finance"), more political union and more federalism. (+ if it is a serious one, otherwise more BS like the last 20 meetings.... but + for the long term so useless for now)
- On the short term problems and risk, so far is taking a decision by not taking a decision, meaning ECB cutting rates by default next week (extremely - for the euro)
Translating that to broad TA levels. 1.295x is wide open to the upside on any better than expected outcome for the summit via profit taking and risk out of the equation. Above it will need some additional Very Strong FA)
To the the downside, played with Q and M roll on a "typical" EU summit BS, meaning 1.223x wide open before any chance of pullback but limited to 1.266x
To the up/down side. A good summit for the long term but a poor one addressing the short term problems (again have your bonds quotes open). Take profits on a TA pullback around 1.238x/1.243x to 1.257x/1.266x area and sell the hell out of it on ECB cutting rates from 1.166x to parity depending on the cut (from 0.25 to negative rates).....
