at least a chance to grab a few green ones , you are right....ranges played out nicely the past few sessions

the small ones add up in the end and they all count

In any event......fek the barstarts, I have my own cocktails

Spain rumor (taken bailout) hit the waves.
I had a wtf I was doing moment yesterday ...I was more than 2 weeks out of sync intraday in the euro that I started to check my M/W levels and yeap it was all there ..horrible amateurish mistake on the S/R lines has made a mess the last few days for me in the euro...

In any case despite the ranting , FA is very clear and Spain is even clearer. We ticked inside of key R a few minutes ago 1.313x ...quite a few stops on a tick above for a overshoot to 1.325x. Tracking Spain confirmation/EU summit gossip as a Trigger. Last break up is untested so a 1 or 2 H4 waves left ....

ES and indexes held Support but they are naked on the next test. A new tick above yearly highs will be better to fade the retrace (sidelines and no longs for me until a fade is confirmed or a break in daily). Gold looks ready and early for a pullback too. Broke down in daily but the Support is daily/weekly so looking for trigger short (@ Kill 1770 again?) either fading daily highs or on the break 1740 with weekly.

Oil and DX look ready too to complete the move and they are just moving as a collateral until the swing move ....

Let see how it pans out....

all i know is i had a path to 3131 for 2 weeks. ... and i have one clear to 2768 for 2 weeks. .. in the smaller wave 2802/3172... before i knew about 3172.... that # was 3196... i gave it a little extra room for 3205/10... but the 2444 target still remains and tweaked to 2432
after 3172 did its thing the mid to 2444 was 2808 ish... i had a smaller wave pointing to 2802. the current low. but most pointed to 2815/2802..
i have had 3131 for weeks now. and have newer smaller ones for 3113 46 49 and 72.. so r/r wise for me is 2763 and 2432..
on the bigger bull wave.. we still could reach 34xx and 37xx... i say bull wave.. but in fact its would be part of a bear bounce. to the yearly pp then some. this is a mid range one.. the larger for .8xxx and the smaller for 2769 have retraced as they normally would. between 2802 and 3172 we had a inside bull that wanted 3131.. after a target is reached we usually retrace. just like we retraced after 2815.. 2768 has paid the fare.. 2432 has not yet. 0.8xxx has paid..
i posted s/p and aj on there bear bounces before they completed them.. they all already triggered a drop. the amount of bounce is the million $ question. but the bears already did what was the min... before a drop.

I know that's why my previous was a reply to you...in simple words I was in disagreement in direction and timing with you on the swing and macro levels the last 2 weeks (which 99% of the time is not the case) ...now I recognized my mistake on the analysis and I agree with the picture above...

hell if it was sure thing i would have longed. at 2804 where a told those who were bullish.. its their chance.
i saw it both ways.. and even now.. 3196 and 3210 is not a sure bull run.. so i side with 2768 just because of a pattern indicating 2768. and if 2802 is broke then at some point a bounce to 2987 would open 2432... i say this.. but a bounce is not needed. it just happens more times then not. i say a bounce is not needed because the door to 0.8xx has already been kicked in and we already did that bounce long ago. i am talking in years tf.. had we not gone to 1876 and 2040 .. i would be bullish...
