Well, I guess German elections will put it down again, or maybe the 6 billion extra cost cutting in the Netherlands. Whichever way, Euro is toast in the end. At these levels I don't dare buy it anymore

I also have something similar in my mind. From your post I think we have similar view about price but slightly different factor which move it. I also think that demand push price up and vice versa, but what I put more emphasis that supply below should weaken significantly before price moves and viceversa. Seems that both works well, it is just a matter of choice and or habbit.

My range is at around 72 below and 1.3415 above. Should sleep now, take care

The Quant model for the EUR (i.e. EURUSD overvalued by 50 pips today) didn't follow higher during the day, watch for a close below 1.3375 {image}
1.3280 so close yet so far

Yeah I thought we'd get there when we broke 1.3330 but no... Just pushed back into the range so I'm neutral, the quant model is rarely wrong with such large (50pip) divergences on a 1 min chart. Not to say EUR will fall, just UST's may be sold off to bring it close together.

There's larger force inplay - fear and safety.

Gatorinla explained yesterday on adding to losses which justifies long term trades with a very specific target, and I can see how that works depending on the % of risk involved, with a well calculated SL.

However, your way of trading still continues to baffle and confuse. The fact that you hedged and let your trades run without any SL confirms that you have no idea what you are doing.

which is why this divergence is here, UST 10 on the highs right now at 2.7470 and yet the dollar is down. Very strange reaction to today's headlines.

the correlation between 1 month vol and DXY broke down as well which is peculiar. If we weren't perched on the edge of a potential breakout to the upside, the EUR would be a screaming sell with this type of market dynamic.

Happens when short-term traders get caught out and try to turn it into a long-term trade.
When the facts change I change my mind, what do you do sir

Fist question you probably should ask is the position size/leverage then pass the judgement won't be too late

Can I ask what assets you are hedging with?

FX hedging is super complex (admittedly I'm quite a beginner in this regard) I see some hedges with bonds and options but what are you doing?
