The break of 1.32 before the ECB tomorrow: a trap for bulls? I wouldn’t trust this movement.

Made some good money but we have to get below the trend on the daily to go into 3rd wave down, if not C wave hasn't ended. But caution NFP tomorrow!!

Great analysis sir,

I made some money too. But also buy two longs at 1.3065 and 1.3083.

The barrier at 1.2950 still resists and it is possible to start building short positions on EurUsd below it. In fact, a short technical signal is still missing by moving averages.

Who knows. The move is probably done for the day. Probably wont be any gap up or down over the weekend. Might see a retrace to 3080 and that might consolidate for another move of supply.

Yea I am in deep with some nice pips enough to hold over weekend. With today's move I think our upthrust over the past week and a half is completely done. I think the overall bigger picture trend continuation has started yesterday.

Scenario 2. If the 1.3230 important area holds and offer significant resistance, we could see a move lower due to the “sell in May and go away” effect, as well as, a reaction to BCE lowering interest rates to 0.5% on Thursday. In that case we price could move lower to retest the 1.2980 area (or lower)....
Scenario 2 of my last review posted on April 30th is being played. The 1.3230 area was very important and I have been watching it carefully. We had strong participation on the downside that negates the bullish scenario I have been following so far.

Indeed, today the market has confirmed the shorts by holding the 3140 area of resistance (stop-loss above 1.3170 was never pierced). This setup has 1st target at 1.3000 and second target around the 1.2910 area of previous support. Below 1.2714 the bullish scenario, already in trouble, can be cancelled altogether. If Scenario 1 (see description hereunder) plays out the first target will be at the 1.2520 area.

The above picture shows the two current scenarios:

Scenario 1. I do not anticipate the 1.2980 level to hold because it is going to be a second test. Thus we could see price slice through that level and move right into the 1.2910 area where we could get a small bounce. If the shorts are real there would be a continuaton after price tests the 1.2980 area from below.

Scenario 2. If the 1.2910 area holds we could still see a resumed move higher. This scenario, however, seems a low probability scenario at the moment.

As usual I am interested in your thoughts and ideas.

On my blog there is an up to date video featuring the daily and the 4-hour charts.

Have a great weekend

I got stopped out @ 1.321 for some 210pips loss (I mentioned it before), and on my vacation this week was able to scalp about 50 pips (while fishing), last night I positioned myself with a long from 1.3060 (30645 i think it was) and locked some 10 pips this morning, while fishing I checked the MKT just to see my TS gets hit from 100 pips profit to my locked 10 pips, I consider this as probable profit but ... lost I'm drunk as f*ck right now, so happy to be back in my town. Happy Easter to all ortodox! This MsMarket still has some pips to give me back.
goods H4 looks interesting doesn't it?

PS: That fishing I went to wasn't so impressive but it was more like quantity over quality

A nice intraday movement but EurUsd still cannot get out of the trading range. I’m expecting volatility if the Australian central bank cuts rates.
