Ok...
from 12:00h am. on (European Time ) ... for the whole session :

on 30min basis :
if open >1.33585 --> long
if open <1.33415 --> short
The best thing that can happen to you is to find out where you're wrong.

EURUSD thread is going to have to change it's name to EURJPY. so many people are trading that pair now ... i think we broke it
EU prints less than half the range of EY the past few weeks

The EY party won`t last forever like I said before but in the meantime , I am not going to be rude and turn down some decent pips

Yeap, we mentioned in the thread on the yearly outlook in december. It has been like that since Abe won and Japan entered in full motion to the currency war: UJ setting the tone (yen side), EJ intraday volatility paradise (both sides) while GJ gamblers paradise (currency war textbook). Now is confirmed with the proliferation of yen threads in FF

In any case, nothing new across the board TA but "minutes" are counted for a decent move. FA wise, Europe printing a lot better but still not good enough numbers this morning is an important signal. Also expected since the yearly outlook, key auctions until Q3 coming soon in the EZ that can mark another 6mnths of "stability" on the EZ debt side.

Expecting same outlook, same levels, same trades, same all across the board for the main swings: pullback via equities 1st and continuation via currencies after.....

EU unable to at least hang onto some gains surprised me

With Yen finding support around 9340 , I was looking for more than lunch money on EY

Just "nothing" trades setting up at present....nothing to gain and plenty to lose

Lunch sounds good...

I don't often tread in this thread, but heard over on Cesarnc's, and so thought it polite to extend my condolences.

It’s a tough loss to take, as I can attest to after losing my mother a few years back.

I always smile when in recollection… be it from that hand with nails that was ever so effective in giving me a clip round the ear when it was deserved as a boy, to the welcome and fussing over me when visiting my mother as an adult.

Take it easy.
