I've never seen a weekly candlestick structure like this before, it's weird.
Makes me wonder what timeframe I should be looking at.
I'm staying out of this market for a while since the technicals are well borked. Part of me wants to say this thing is still going to hold and head south because the spike was made on big news with light volume while big orders were absent, but another part says that technically resistance is broken and that may shake some traders from putting shorts there. In either case I don't have a good setup to enter on. The previous daily pinbar was beautiful but the fiscal cliff destroyed that entry.

I just want to say some posters commenting like
"if it breaks 63 we will see 67"
is typical mambo jumbo BS crap one is expected to read at FF.Worse traders actually believing shit like this and changing their trading decisions.
Do everyone a favor and stop projecting please.
I thought every trader has made own decisions base on my sources including projecting from some one they believe or most hate.

If I trust some one, I would follow their post while I use to do reverse on the one I dislike...

Any way, please give a sample of the post you like most I need to learn

I think maybe his biggest gripe is with the word "will". Nobody can predict the market with absolute certainty.

It's very tough at the moment I agree.
I dont have a great setup either.
My own analysis tells me we retested 1.6 a while ago after breaking a descending monthly trendline and bouncing off the ascending TL.
There seems to be a new daily ascending TL forming.

Next major monthly descending TL I see is around 6425 or so on current monthly bar.

I'm watching 1 and 4 hr for entries.

Kinda confusing at the moment, at first we have this so called Risk On rally that gets sold off now the institutions are talking about a Risk Off dollar concerns mentality. Whatever I am holding onto my longs

Hmmm.... it seems as though my system is still working.... i had a great opporunity on the USDCHF and ill show it to you
Too bad the system gave me signals to Short against all Yen Pairs when Fundamentally Yen is weakening due to BOJ interventioning easing...
otherwise my system makes me good pips as seen here....

maybe this'll make you reconsider my strategy?? since it works but like i said... need to know whats going on fundamentally too otherwise the system gets hit badly by fundamentals...
