yeah, i would of liked a catalyst to 2616 (2591 ish) to reload using aud news. that was a dud.. maybe support can push 2676.. unlikely. but for 2587 its all i can do.. the mofu cant hold forever, but its doing the job atm.
i take most marbles off the table if 2628 is molested.

2678 the other with a mid between 2610 and it at less important 44
Yeap that's +/- level I have (1.266x).

Look at the compression in the ES !!! ...this thing is going to blow with the QEs/ ECB /China /NFP combo....

Whatever the case, like yesterday either a fast break before London goes home or we have chop zone for the rest of the day across the board...

getting a bit whippy, got any details on the ecb leak?
Nope not on the technicalities. We may need to wait for Draghi.

What is clear on the latest comments from every single politician and technocrat and EZ bond markets (very sharp declines) is that bond buying is a done deal...

haha right on. FOC is fun, it's like a more polished version of the last one... haven't played the campaign yet, still only playing multiplayer as well. Keeps me busy and allows me to unwind for a few hours each day.

Here's what I am doing, I am closing longs, but not entering short. Whatever that means... I'll need the H4 to rollover first, although we should come back for a retest of 2540'ish. Of course, we could go much higher too...

dunno, I never know what it's going to do. I just play the tech setups and see what happens.

dont know.. London closes in 40 min.. if it goes up close to that time. its conceivable London traders are closing shorts or vice verse with closing longs. watch what way the spike goes just before/at close.. those traders are biased the opposite.
