E/U cannot be compared to oil in no respect. Good day tarder can make huge profits with oil. Oil gives far more opportunities than e/u. One Japanese trader told that being afraid of volatility is being afraid of profits and oil is very volatile. Huge pip runs too.

I have only one Pair at All my marketwatch tabs ( Demo/Live) "EURUSD"

oil is your expertise.

I am too old to learn a new instrument.
one instrument is more then enough for me.
I am merried with EU & want to know it better.
when you spend time > 5 years with same thing, you can even predict what is next move before it does.

price is actually sitting on Diagonal

another confimation for bottom additional to 1H & 4H

so in general price has reached & created some supports for itself to sit on.

reached : Fibo
created : lower channels & diagonal

this does not mean that it will go up

I would hate if this ranging continues. The big picture is eur/usd down trend on weekly. The question is when it will resume. I doubt this trend is going to reverse until Europe resolve core issues. The biggest is Eur is not a stable currency which might dissapear. I think it is grossly overvalued.

you should also notice that price moved away from MA's on daily chart pretty sharply. in such cases it is very unlikely that move up will continue. there is always a chance but not likely. when trend starts it is usually starts with smaller moves and then some violent BE not far from ma's but along with them whcih is not a case now.

the ignition of up move will be bounce over 3024. 15M & 30M

before that no long action.

but also this may be orderbook fill. means collecting sell orders to move down.

now I am watching 3024 & bounce over/below

Steve, you probably want to say that your analysis might be wrong and price might go up too?

yes
that may means price overstretched.

I can easly say that the actual formation of 1H chart is bear.
it wants to make another move down.

but if support strong & may reject.

so I will wait some more hours to see what the reactions are.

it might roll down last week.
bu did not.

may be big players waited for summit results.

but there is nothing came out from summit except bank supervising @ jan 2013

so there are actually to many conflicts.

on the other hand while summit did not give ( I far as I see ) what is expected but there is no gap open to south.

so for me it is all mixed up.

when looking 1H chart

for up;

the best setup will be bounce below 3033 then bounce over 3020 then up.

PS : 3033 & 3020 digonal. they are closing each other with every new bar.
