GM - did anyone work out what triggered that huge spike at 16:14 gmt after Europe closed?....€ +75 pips in 1 minute and even Swissy - 40 pips......or was it just the MMs having a stop sweep!
There was one billion fat finger in Shanghai but not sure if that was the cause?

{quote} Hi Venzen, I have 1375-1395 as area to short for maybe 200+. Sorry very busy, and garbage pa, so no time for charts now.

Did some homework and have reason to believe that an XAU/USD target around 1,400 is likely. My chart below shows 3 counts and to be honest the one that "feels" best is the red Alt count. This count assumes the current rise is a corrective rally unfolding as an expanding triangle. For the Evident count (in white), adjusting the channel lines so that subwave3 makes an over-throw (instead of subwave4 under-throw) has the interesting outcome of explaining the current contention around 1,360 for example. There are other counts that also work but without exploring all the why's and therefore's here are my 3 prefered possibilities for Gold. I must point out that the notion that blue wave 1 (to 1,351) is a leading diagonal explains a lot, but has evidence both for and against it, so i have relegated that count to "Alternate".

edit: i see the red Alt count description refers to wave1 - it should be "waveA"

The only way I can get it to work is if you log in - 'Tools' - 'Market News' - 'FxPro Squawk'

There's another link for it in there somewhere but it doesn't work any more; at least for demo accounts.

Hello Islander and good morning to you. Long covering Usd across the board following poor Philly figures. On Forexlive: They might be "bloody useless" for your needs but l think it's a good site for free. Trust me if you want real news on the nail you have to pay for it and if you want a proper live feed have you tried "tradethenews.com".? They're not expensive and I think you can get a free trial.

Thanks for the info - I'll take a look at that site. I liked Forexlive until those two English guys left and started their own site which they then had to close at the end of last month. With them they kept up to date with the news - ulike I'm now finding with Forexlive.

BTW - nice to see you here in PT's thread - I'm certain that he would appreciate more visits - I certainly would

I'm thinking more so 1.3388, otherwise I am in total agreement of more up before down.
How far down is a big question at this point.

{quote} Gold had come up in discussion, at the time, I was long and closed at 1367 as posted. However, Venzen is a real good EWP guy so although I did not have time to post a chart, I was pointing out off the top of my head some EWP counts would get you 1375 to 1395. Upon, closer inspection it appears 1380 to 1398 but I like 1394 as an area of interest. It is EurAnalysis thread but people here trade all kinds of markets, I just happened to be in that one at the time.
Ah, you are talking about gold.

I shorted eu this morning and thought you are pointing out the top of eu. 1.3380 looks very similar to 1380. Better look closely...

I had a pending sell order at 1.3387 (EUR/USD), but the final wave got truncated at an M5 double top and didn't get triggered.
Now waiting for 1.3325 to give way and see a daily close below so that I can start selling rallies next week.

I was just plain lucky. It just so happens I had a look at my platform and got in at 3371 and followed with 3358, happy with my average of 3365. Close below 3325 would keep me happy over the weekend..

Have a great w/end everyone.
Short Euro and remaining that way. That's just the way it is !
