probably going to wait for 3327 myself. 3327/325x
sub 3431 close is probably bearish now. the 5am close was normally bullish to me. but we are against long time R

junkiessssssssssssssssss whats op



read sokers

10:41 AM Cable continues a sizable 2013 slide after incoming BOE Governor Mark Carney suggests he'll outdo even Mervyn King on stimulus. Monetary policy is far from "maxed out," he told the big shots at Davos, and more should be done even if inflation is above target (no worry, the British are used to it). FXB -0.7%.

10:35 AM More "crisis over" signs emerge from Europe where German T-Bill yields turned positive for the first time since June at today's auction. The government sold €2.07B of 12-month paper priced to yield 0.1319%.

might consider some shorts in EG near 8572...

+1

I had 8575, but have already started scaling in shorts, Cable's oversold across the board, Euro overbought, this cross' due a correction.

We have "technically" already set the highs and lows of the month across the board. However, early start of the month already in play with key numbers including FOMC , and especially NFP/US GDP combo (tracking closely any undershoots in expectation to start a pullback wave in equities). Euro must wait for ECB next week(not much expectations there only tracking any comments on currency wars and unfair devaluation from the UK and Japan).

In simple words only key levels in play until the Weekly rolls/closes. Euro 1.338x, ES 1500.xx, Oil 96.1x, Gold 169x (far and just marginally open with a major surprise) so managing same trades, same levels same all until further data and staying aside on ES and oil until next week....

That 1,343x is just noise in my charts. I will only start tracking euro for potential load with news play on a test of your 1.340x (in my case 1.338x but the same trade...)

i have a .858 wave intact.. the one below is .777.. .777 has level at 3484.. that plus we have a top last attempt here/near it.. if you look back toward the left on a day week month. the last times we were here.. it has always been an area not easily crossed at the first attempt. with the st target at 3539/40.. a pullback to 3327 min happens more times then not, before 3539... then if 3539 is true, the um is the high from Friday. we also have yet to cross it, with a valid close. so like i posted Friday, i was waiting for 3327 w/o a low below 325x low, to go long.. and look for 3539 min.
my worry is i have a even shorter term setup.. that with a HH may want 3526 sooner, with a LL probably 3376.. and to me the close at 5am est is more bullish then bearish..but it is against past R atm. its also in the mofu for 3539.. in Fridays chart

missed your post friday... also need to take into account changes in the fundamental landscape, with no new eurozone crisis hitting the headlines i'd have to favour a "risk-on" backdrop getting priced back into euro...

plus i believe that i'm correct in saying that fomc have not yet signalled a possible winding up of the on-going, current q.e. program...

Just for you mate ....big noise across the wires UK downgrade .... well it just a matter of time ...it has been a done deal for a long time ...I don't see how they can avoid it after the latest numbers ...all macro numbers are upside down in the UK and Cameron shoot himself on the foot putting uncertainty on top ... Your 1.540x levels is the last S left before breaking the compression range ... I don't know if you are still holding, but if you are more than 2 thumbs up and you have to pay the next round for the thread....
