one of my shorts has the same tp as yours.
Cool. It's 50 pips down. I might move sl up to 3095 or something and open a sell limit at 87.

True. That's why I had a 10 pip sl but let's see how it goes. I have it down on daily and H4 while up on hourly.
If hourly closes below 55, then we'll be going down. Up on the other hand is 30-40 pips away to break..

And here's a daily view that I just drew up. 1.3287 is an area I'll keep an eye on, if and when price gets there.

I made a projection about a double top forming 2 days ago when the bulls where numberous. I used technical analysis to make that call.

One thing that a lot of technical traders forget is the power of fundamentals. To support my claim I looked at the fundamental factors that could effect price this week (this month for that matter).

1) Spanish Bailout/EU Summit - Since the summit would have major effects on price if some spectacular occurrence were to happen I focused on the issues of the day for the EU, since they are major drivers of risk trends. The main issue discussed was a possible extension of loans to the spanish people. Since Rajoy had already ruled out making a decision for at least a "few weeks" it was clear Merkel would say something to the effect of "Spain and the ESM will still have to work out the terms of the loan"...yadda, yadda, yadda...which is what actually happened.

Diagnosis - risk aversion

2) Chinese GDP - China being another major playing in global risk trends was the focus of my decision. Since it has been known for some time that China's economy, although growing, has been growing slower and slower supporting expectations of a moderate GDP growth or at least growth as expected by the market.

Diagnosis - risk aversion

3) Current price movements - Although risk had been heating up the past few days, price alone did not break nor even come close to the recent high made a few weeks ago. Nothing to back it up so movement was mere speculation and hope (The Bulls).

Diagnosis - risk aversion

4) The Unexpected - Clearly no one saw the Google earnings report coming unless you truly can see the future or you are an incredibly connected inside trader. Google says somebody jumped the gun.... Looking for a major screw up in timing....Google it! (pun intended)

Diagnosis -risk aversion

All my ducks in a row, and 1 gander to boot...made the call and the extra point is good!

I see a young double top over there and possibly a HnS also.

Just a little FYI here. If a trader draws a properly drawn chart, (yes, define "properly" drawn), then the chart will tell them when and where something will happen. So, after they see a potential reversal point, with a properly drawn chart, then they can glance over at the calendar and say, "Oh, such and such is being released at this precise time, while everybody else is hammering it out, on if the data says this, price will do that, blah, blah, blah. The trader with the properly drawn chart will already know when and where price will go. Just something to keep in mind. But, by all means, if fundies alone is making you pips, the more power to you.

One more. I also think it's a duplicate. See the middle W and the little one at the end.
Possible scenario isn't it?

Nope, primarily a tech trader...big chart guy. Just wanted to point out how important it is to keep fundamentals in mind as part of any good technical setup.....being game-changers and what not.

I'll have to admit, though, if I was trading based on sentiment alone, in the month of May, I would have made a killing.
