EURUSD, Daily H 1.2324 - L 1.2229 just now.

...seems for me a favored ATR for going long additively.

Long @ 1.2229 (2x)
I said this next door... I don't understand why we're not rallying on the poor US data. I'm not really a fundy guy, but I'd think people would be thinking QE3 with any poor US data. Don't understand it, but don't know if I should care considering I'm short

missed all the drop.. tempted to L 2220/29 ish.. but i will wait.. i think.. for 2124/36
sorry i didn't take it. and set b.e. not married to it.. i closed my pendings for 2328.5, thinking about putting them back.. we came close the last spike, but no Monica. stops would be above 2333 just a little.

Nice one. Looking for a daily close below 1.2270 to keep bears in control now.

EU...maybe we've seen the strongest movements today.
I'm waiting for higher probability patterns.

bears st seem to want 2202.. atm many are discounting the bears. look for weakness is norm 2285/91.. 2285 is the mid of the last leg.. the closer to today's high the better r/r.. it dont have to bounce to the mid of the last leg.. it just does more times then it doesn't. so weakness in that area or higher is a better trade. if your gonna short anyway.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a little bounce on EA now that 1.18 has been smashed. Will look to add short around 1.1835-50 mark.
Not even a chance of these getting filled...

Maybe 1.1750 will give a bounce? Tough to complain, though...

...Still eying Gold. Would like to get short, but would prefer around 1590 or so.
Missed it. Was asleep. May put in lightly here and add toward 1600. Waiting for coffee to kick in first.

Worth a shot!

I'm seeing potential "stop magnets" at 1.0445 and 1.0470...both of the "ish" variety. How bad anyone wants them is another matter.
45 nearly done. Take 65/70 and 1.05 is on deck in the short term.

Maybe a tad over-bought on some shorter TFs...ATR nearly painted, too...but plenty of room to run on daily and weekly.

Take 1.05 and we could see 1.0635 and 1.0850 based on the weekly.

EU back to the H1 200ema.

-Fourth day of higher lows (if the bottom holds).
-Fifth day NYC has painted the right hand side of a pretty V.

Who says markets aren't predictable?

Can't blame you. Was a big couple bars that led into it. Looked like Mo had arrived.
