Good that I closed my short since I´m no longer sure that Oct 3 really is the swing high.

{quote} Some banks in Israel are opened
Really ? I didn't know that ... fine Tom lets continue playing: They are open, with both will and ability to fill the orders ? Where are they going to fill it from?! They might be able to exchange shekel's with dollars even euros , but how can that effect the EURUSD exchange rate with both the countries offline

After seeing calculated levels all pointing to the shorts, the week did end below its opening price. Beginning this week, the calculated level comes in @ 3575 signalling a downward bias. Remember safety barriers @ +/-15/30 ticks

{quote} i have thought the effects of market orders, limit orders, and stop orders. Limit orders just do not move the market. No matter how big a limit order sits there, it does not move the market. In order to move the market, market orders have to come in and sweep all the limit orders sitting there. Stop orders when triggered become market orders, which will take off the limit orders from the book. To simply put, the market is moved by market orders and stop orders.
Ehem. Market is moved by pricing and pricing is done by market makers based on both supply/demand and the arbitrary price set by the collective market makers.

Therefore, if current spot price is 1.3500 and the market makers decide to place limit orders at 1.3550, guess what the price becomes? ... and all without an actual position being taken.

The markets are open 24/7. That's why we have a gap, there was actual weekend trading going on, it's just that most retail brokers are closed.

But market movers move the market If they project that there lies exactly "right" amount near by - they push for it, fill it and move to where the initial direction was or/and wait while others do the pushing for them
The only way to know for sure, how much liquidity lies beyond 5 pips or so, is to test the liquidity at the actual spot (thats what algos do) as nobody have the complete order book.

S/D is defined in a range of a spread basically and larger distances is just projections - this never ending game in between the smart and the dumb money.
