Possible change of intraday direction, sell order hit at 29494 just under the last bearish 30m candle open. Low risk.

I am buying EU from 1.2939. Hope the price will fill the gap
BTW, why there is a gap down, what happened.
Follow the smart money. Follow the probability.

Good to hear from you, the whole Cyprus bailout thing is what caused it.

The way its going I'm looking for longs currently on GJ.

Ideally a pullback to 143.30 where I've got a buy order waiting, 12 pip stop.
Order hit, tp @ 444.

edit, not liking the PA, closed for +10 @ 40.

Scalped another +10 on GJ from 143.548, got in on the small pullback to the bullish 15m candle open with that long wick.

Just entered short on GJ @ 144.369 after that insidebar bearish hammer on the 30m right in a previous sell off area, stop just above the previous high.

edit... stop now at trade open @ +25.

Long on GJ from 143.62, besides the obvious bullish bat and the price stall right on todays daily pivot, it looks in a prime position to buy.

Closed for +18, will re-enter when this 30m candle closes and get in long again on the pullback.

edit - on 2nd thoughts, I won't be re-entering long on GJ, the PA of EJ especially isn't looking good for longs.
