Wow, we're the last Mohicans here, before the porn-boys wake up.

What a terrible loss.

I had loved to see a pump before FOMC, but I think, even the QE3-beggers have realized that there's no point in hope any more.
...you have been as on fire with your comments as with your trading this week ....

I am clearing euro in H4 if we don't clear the lows with London. There is a baby reversal (pullback) on daily/h4 in the making after the double test of Q support. Still only one level to track at 1.228x but today (rest of week) for the rejection back up.

Spain announcing strong measures but bond markets still on the highs and as long as they don't pullback..... Important to see the reaction there after these news.

I don't expect much from the FOMC minutes. A recognition of the global slowdown and the impact in the US (all CBs stepped in last week except the FED) so prolly a bit more "open" for more QE, etc ..

What about you? still holding shorts?

nope, I cleared before rollover, planning a tiny long on the retest of 2282 from above, if at all. there are too many bear levels in the way to feel comfortable at the moment.
the downside is rather blocked by non-existent drivers, so I will hit and run.

Yeap agree 100%. I am in the same map.

Is falling on inertia and we need a to refuel in one of the many (now 3 important untested break down without counting the major in Q and M chart) before anything else.

Otherwise is clean swept in monthly/Q and that will be something very big. The last and only time it happened was in 2008 Lehman ....

Let see how it pans out but as always after a test of key Support return to the "mean" has priority before continuation outside of range...

closing the hour >2289.7 is a good sign for 2339/41.

too bad I didn't see 2263.2 earlier. blind as a bat.

3:25 AM A new ILO report shows 3.5M jobs have been lost in the eurozone since the 2008 financial crisis, and a further 4.5M jobs are at risk. If eurozone leaders fail to make job creation a priority, the region's 11% unemployment could rise sharply, "fueling social unrest and eroding citizen's confidence in national governments, the financial system and European institutions.
