I still see this as a part of correction on higher TFs. The problem is if EU breaks 2640 it will target 2500 and 2450 levels, but those must be supported by fundies, and fundies have been more hawkish later giving a pullback some strength.

So the strategy is, go with main trend ( bearish) on rallies and scalp on lower TFs ( exploiting ups and downs). Scalping the trend is still the safer option then going for a home run with positional trading.

1. Get a bigger picture ( main trend, intraday levels)
2. Define entry point and stop per rally ( since we are in downtrend)
3. Watch PA at important zones/levels, if those are broken fast wait for next level, if not take the profit.
4. Take profit
5. In case SL has been hit, dont revenge it, wait for another opportunity.

agree completely... one more leg down - by that i mean a 5th wave down but until we break 2640-5 we will still be correcting... as said before 2660 is not the low for the whole move down from 1.3172...

While my short & medium term Bias for EURUSD had been bearish since mid-October..
There are signs now flashing for more consolidation or continuation of the M/T up trend from July prior to a widely expected break below 1.2650..
H4 had breached the S/T TL in resolving the bullish divergence confirming the Daily bullish engulfing reversal from the L/T confluence support/demand zone 1.2720~1.2650 dating back to 2008.. along with newly gained support from its Crosses & Cable, I see more upside potential then a retest & break below 1.2650 from here..

Trading is all about taking as much out of the market when you're right.. so there's nothing wrong in betting with conviction as long as we bet with proper adjusted risk & MM..

Got in late but shorted at 2768. Looking for 2704 but will cash in earlier depending on momentum. 2744 the hurdle.

when the suggested ABC-flat count is right, then it would be nice to see another small attempt higher, but that is not necessary:


when I measure the top of the blue A and the bottom of blue B I get a A=C target of around 2806, which we have taken out a bit, but are staying in the blue base channel

when I measure not from the top of the blue A but take the following top (the B-wave top inside wave blue B) @ 2802, we need now 2831 for A=C


when wave blue C should get an impulse, we might now be in wave 3 of it (maybe subwave 4 of wave 3). In this case the ideal target for the movement up would be 2888


But it is really hard to say what count may evolve. Maybe the blue ABC is in fact a WXY. In this case the top is eventually already in.


I place right now a sell stop @ 2770 for a target of 2756 first

I will reshort a retest from the lower side of 2756 with a SL just above 2770 (in any case: that is the beter trade of the two)


PO sell @ 2829, TP1 2772, TP2 2758, TP3 2695 (depends on momentum then, evtually deeper), SL above 2890 (looks like bad R:R, but I take that trade)

PO sell @ 2865, SL behind 2890 first TP 2756

PO sell @ 2880, SL behind 2940 first TP 2756

I have mostly skipped today's trading day, and I reckon we might see interesting day tomorrow. If 2815 gets broken and retested as a new support, we will see invalidated bearish pattern and we should buy the dips then.

2815 short today was good for some 10 pips but thats not enough if price wants to stay bearish. Only below 2770 we might see bears strength.

We also saw a classic Murrey pattern today:

5/8-4/8-6/8-5/8-7/8

morning Guys.. looks like there's now good demand in-front of 1.2750..

in addition to bullish railway pattern & elephant paths..
USD Index resolving H4 & D1 Divergences..
Good odds for cross-over & reverse scenario..
ie. Euro ---> 1.2660 reverse ---> 1.32/1.35

2817, say it 2815 big rejection, mark that on your charts, a break above it will be fast 1.
