BREAKING: Cyprus defence minister says parliament may not vote on bill today
This means multiple news spikes today.
I might not trade today. Fake moves early in the session and hints that news coming. Making market too unpredictable.

NZtrader, I would like to see 2886 today, there will be a big batle aroud that area, and a lot of pips can be made from scalping, and I will also look for a long position around that area.
Agreed...that is the most comfortable place for me to buy from, especially how volatile it is due the Cyprus news.

I missed an entry from 1.2886 last night...it end up going 70 pips.

I am with you mate, as mentioned to Swedish I will only buy from weakness at 1.2886.

Every piece of news about Cyprus is just going to be a stop hunter.

Will wait for the German news in an hour.

Boring start of day for the euro. Guess the vacation for my fellow
trend traders is on. Going long at the break of yesterday's 1.2990
or short below 1.2880.

Hi Goods,
thanks for sharing. The way I do it is that to confirm a support a sequence of measured moves lower has to be interrupted (on 15min and 4-hour chart). When that happens, the market typically retraces towards the support level and there are specific retracements I look at. Those are opportunities to open or add to longs.
But markets moving higher or lower do in measured moves, so it is possible to add on a retracement on the daily or even the weekly chart once a support is established and the target is known.
The real money is in the 1000+ pips moves.

Good luck
Cheers
G.

I agree 100% although I don't look at SMA's or Technical Indicators except for price but I do see a big push up. I posted latest CoT and looks like EU is ready to continue the trend up. I really am trying to learn how to ad to my swing trades and I would love to turn them into longer than normal Swing trades for like a few weeks or so however this has been most challenging. I do have my meathod of finding enteries however lately it seems I can keep a trade for no longer than 3 to 5 days sometimes into the next week but that is about it. I am...

Could I ask, from what you read or made the conclusion I was stressed or upset?
On poker table you just would have lost the pot.
