Rather than retrace (which it looked like a few hours ago) 149 area support seems like it's going to fail, although I would expect a small bounce at about 148.5/6 - maybe up to 149.8 (daily pivot)

Hey dudes,

Starting to build some longs now with tight SL to get going.

Had a 3rd touch off the Daily LTL, quite a strong 4HR support line and 23.6 Monthly FIB all within range.

Maybe I am going in too early but looking for 148.38 to hold

hmm... 149.20ish seems like a good sell zone to me.

Yeah could be dude

But the last 3 1HR candles have closed the wick on the 4th previous candle therefore for me that is a complete candle so believe the bulls have more power at the moment.

Many resistances in the way, 149.23, 149.45, 149.86, 150.03 ...... lets see what happens. And that is if 148.38 hold also

Yeah looking for 4HR to close above 149.5 would be sweet.

My first TP is at 150. But again, if I see the momentum building up, I will probably edit the first TP and just add more.

Really would like to see a close above 149.5 however.

Nice trade Geppy! Wish I had joined you on that one (for my second short from ~149.20), but oh well, I guess...

I've been thinking about it, and I'm pretty sure my focus on ultra-short-term moves actually hurts me more than it helps!

Ck, man, I hope you're banking on this move... I think you got the selloff you were waiting for! Although, I know there's still more to come... I was trading great up until Bernanke spoke! Ugh!

Gotta start thinking a little more longer term. Does anyone find it surprising that since Bernanke spoke a few hours ago, the stockmarket is up, and GJ is down?! I don't find it surprising one bit now that I'm thinking about it. A little foreshadowing, perhaps? Market participants are not liking what they hear? News of Fed continuing to pump money into the markets? Sure, it can provide a short-term boost to the markets, but the market is smarter than that, and it will eventually catch up.

Speaking of... did you guys hear... how Obama changed the way we now calculate GDP? It's bogus, if you ask me! Total freaking bogus. And I'm trying to be polite. The ONLY reason someone would possibly do something like this when it's been this way for decades is to make themself look better... O'bummer.

Sure am kicking myself though for not swinging this one from 153.65, but heck, would, shoulda, coulda... I have learned that it doesn't get you anwhere when it's all said and done.

Unless it makes a significant new low (like about more than 20~30 pips lower than the previous one), I anticipate an upmove to start shortly to about 150 ~150.4

I sure hope you are correct, sir



I personally just want a SMALL bounce, but I'm worried now that might be asking for too much.

I'm trying to make sense of this market... and it's very hard... other than to say "it's just technical".

The only thing I can think of is... market participants really did not like what they hear... and it is nothing but an overreaction? A SEVERE overreaction? Does anyone else agree?

EDIT: Thank you Geppy. Probably would have ignored that news if you hadn't mentioned it

It sure will be interesting to see the impact it has from current levels. If you dont mind me asking, do you follow the news for just GBP and JPY, or do you follow all of the news events? Or just the high/medium-impact ones? I am wondering because technically the news doesn't come out locally until "tomorrow" my time, and that means I'd actually have to check the news for "tomorrow" just in order to even be aware of news that happens past midnight my time. Kind of frustrating, but I'd still like to know your thoughts on this, Geppy.
