general rule of thumb: if many people here say it's a short, then it will be long I'm in that "many people"
well you will not be the first to say it nor the last

but in all honesty even if you are right it means nothing.

flip a coin and if it is heads go long tails short technically you will be right 50%, but even if most new traders do that 90% of them will lose. Why? because it is not really about the direction, it is all about trade and money management, there is always room for a successful short and a successful long from the same price.

So the key is not what others are doing, it is all about what you are doing and how you do it that counts.

be successful

A psychological take profit is as non-productive as a a psychological stop loss. IMHO, it is better to learn and understand time/price movements and than to trade those movements rather than deciding it has to go 150 pips. As far as the euro goes....there were a great deal of pips on the table. Count the pips on the swings of the hourly chart. If your system or strategy did not produce positive pips with such swings, you may want to consider alternative strategies or systems.
Something does not want the euro to fall, unless the time to give Sell

Sounds great in theory, but a fundamental trader needs weeks- and months-long patience, combined with nerves and leverage to sit in the negative through 500-1000 pip losses. Unlike Newton's laws of physics, a trend will continue trending until it changes itself - fundamental news only create speculative spikes
One of the many "forex lies" repeated by 1000's traders who do not understand when fundamental trading matters - you wouldn't have any drawdown if you sold in the window between 1,37/1,35

off-topic - I have just looked at monthly GBP/USD. To put it in short words, I won't be looking for any shorts in that pair
nice example, calling pair bullish 500 pips of the position which should have been taken around 1,4900/1,5000 - we are in the middle of the leg, a little too high for bullish confirmation, even for a trader who likes to limit risk to maximum.

I am not jumping here on you mate in any case but there is so much bs on fundamental trading and that bs is constantly repeated by many.
best of luck.
swing it!

Yeah. I loved Cloggs with his Bloomberg platform in these situations. There could be some hint.

Insiders know about possibly bad US fundamentals or what is happening? Volumes arenīt strong, at 14:30 (Central European Summer Time) we will know more. Or slightly before.

I've seen this sentiment a few times. Just because it's a recognised level doesn't mean price will turn on it.
I'm welcome to opinions and haters... but I am sure that big trades by big banks or corps don't give 2 hoots about 38 FIB if they have to purchase €150M EUR today for a deal....

Well, on GBP/USD we are talking about a monthly scale. At 1.49/50 it wasn't as obvious as now. ( Plus, I only looked at monthly on that pair today ;-) )
On monthly scale the upper limit is 1.64, and middle of BB is 1.58. So, it is very nice moment to call it - not too early, and not too late
