Still can't figure out from yesterday why U/J is inversely correlated with E/U on H1. Looks like this E/U down move was pretty much related to Yen.
Sell euro to buy yen and vice versa. There was strength in both dollar and yen

not currently.. just my chart.
I asked because I have noticed relation between smart money and shift in sentiment, the top COT is from July just before we hit 1,20 and the lower one is from 25th of Jan 2013, lets see how far this can go...

I was always interested in the commercials.. I also think with all the talk of qe ending, the market is going to go into withdrawals as it's been on crack for several years now, and into the dollar.

makes no difference to me what type of account you use. if your a decent trader, or even if you parrot, a signal service. giving sound trading advice is welcome in my book. to be honest i have not been reading your stuff. the last few days i have weeded through the attacks and the defense of you. i dont care if you sleep with goats, and most reading this dont. i am a lazy sob, and posting this is a waste of my energy. if you are for real, the best way to shut up the critics. is to prove them wrong with sound advice. hopefully before the move, that's...

They are usually early on positions, then non commercials catch up, then positions become more ballanced and there is increase in one direction, it takes time to master it and it has been my second cycle so far - if current drop is a game changer, but I think it is useful tool to limit risk even further.
swing it!

And i do not like it

This is what I think if it makes sense at all. The gain as seen in USD/JPY is not because YEN strengthen but because of USD gain. When USD gain reflects in EUR/USD bearish. I don't know when this bearish tone in E/U will last base on the assumption FED will tighten and rate hike. I just don't see how when employment rate is not improving.

USD bullish also shown on USD/CAD.

Yep, but the strength in the Y limited the movement. Dollar reaching highs of day. EURUSD 1.3166 broken more downside looks like (EDIT) if it closes below

I dont see any way they'll tighten. They cant- not because of the economy- there was no way all the QE was gonna improve anything anyway. All the printing is to enable the deficit- nobody else buys treasuries so the Fed must do it: 90% of all new issuance. As long as congress has a trillion dollar deficit the Fed will have to buy it, forever. It's that simple. Welcome to Zimbabwe.

Agreed but markets don't see it that way hence the down move boosted by FOMC minutes yesterday.

Imho, based only on candlestick patterns and feeling, this is the way to go for the next area (short to medium term, with some bumps along). I'm not going to post the full analysis, cos' the majority of muppets here won't grasp it anyway.

Didn't post for some time, it's nice to be back. I see KW & Jay are still here, trying to instruct the "algogo" muppets, wtg guys.
Seems like it was a decent step down. I'm waiting to see 3080-90 in a few days. That's the great turning point I'm waiting for. Until then, ta-ta.
Please, just slap me around if I'm being silly ...

Picked up bottom of the month, nothing but higher now.
Yeeeah... kinda doubt that. People kept picking bottoms around here all month. I think it's gonna be at least a week until a significant upmove and even after that its still gonna probably continue going down for a while.
