Looks very possible... Bulls very close to overpower the highs (Clean sweep to 1.266x is within easy reach) with H4/NY ... decision time in the next few minutes in the euro, both extremes of the micro compress intraday range are within a dozen of pips. Next test of high or low wont hold in my books.

Here, micromanaging euro with 0 margin for maneuver for NY...let see how it goes...

Thanks for that MACD heads up ...using the same info the small wick on the MACD the 24th August can signal a trap (divergence) barely visible on the MACD but with PA next to it is clearer ...In simple words, thats the last option for bears MACD wise too...

Let see...

So. H4 perspective, who's placing bets where? Seems like we are a bit extended and its time for a little bear trend for a while here. Failure to make a new high as well. Although, we have a little bit of a symetrical triangle cooking, and we are nearing the apex... hmm. Guess I will let that tell me where we are going post-breakout.

I am not really looking for shorts, except for a shake-out scalp. My bias is to the upside, because I don't think that the ECB will fail this time (last-chance-mode).
How far Bernanke will push the markets down is beyond me, but I have some levels in mind. We could even see a new low, before the ECB summit, but that's too far away for me atm.
