sucking my thumb and shooting from the hip......60-80 pips ?

i took some profit.. it would be normal for the ej to go back to 118.88 at some point, even if we have a st top here. so that woild allow the eu to go higher .. 3341 may be a place to look.. but 118.88 ej is 84 pips higher then atm.. and that may cause the eu 3368/73+
115.17 is part of 118.88... we hit 117.64 the low is 117.46
ej is climbing atm high at 118.75

ADR @ 84 already

Not too confident trading a break above 3353 as mentioned

On the other hand ADR may print +200 today

Early lunch ......

Relatively calm and on the mean opening range. All markets ready (euro with London also aligned) for that last leg up on this waves across the board. DAX is the only one still bottoming on the wide gap.

From a macro view the market to highlight is DAX 764x holding in weekly will be the 1st to open a real TA chance for all time highs (unreal how fast markets have turned around since the recession) which will open only "magic" lines to topside starting at 9000 but for a lot later 2014 and beyond (so for those thinkinh to invest in stocks long term ...). FA will need macro numbers matching the overshoot in expectations.

Short term, Citi and BAC in full control across the boar via NY equities. If positive extra momentum to clear/fade the highs will come from China key GDP tomorrow. Currencies are collateral of the main moves the next few days... GL all holding, managing or thinking to jump in ....

I am looking at 6032 and 37, but I don't think, I'll add anything at the moment.
I was thinking about the A/U yesterday at the time of the roll, but that long setup is not valid any more. FA prevented the b/o to the upside.

I got to test the new broker and a certain indicator today... If I get a couple of clean charts, I will post them.

i took that one off a resistance/fib level i had marked on my H1 chart. i must admit i should have waited till 119.03 so i did jump the gun a bit early as i wanted to have another cocktail
