Well am glad those lines are working, but would prefere lesser retracement, this wont be light sleep edit: Screw sleep, got enough smoke. Buying the line edit: risk 2,25% SL 98,14. Think it is a good knifecatch? {image}
I agree with this trade in a way as you are buying support (left of the chart). I was long from 9830 looking for 9900 which I closed @9876. Now I am long again @98.35 with a tight stop. We'll see how this plays out.

Off to bed

Well currently a bit pain in the a$$, have deleveraged a bit on linebreak down and reentering here, moving SL down. Momentum is too strong.

Edit: 5% waiting down there

technically speaking, if it finds support around this area 98.2x to 98.3x, our position isn't bad as it is merely an adjustment if you look at the hourly chart.

fundamentally speaking, this abe news is not very good but whether it works or not they are still printing money. and we shouldn't go too low consider US tapering news is back on. the US data this week will be important measures.

I like how you've got your stops set up right below the 50% retracement of last weeks range. 97.98 is the 61.8% of last weeks range, so maybe just another 5 pips would be a bit safer.

I'm stuck long right now too, no fun at all, but have to keep it all in perspective. We haven't even hit 50% retrace of last week so I still believe we will get some kind of bounce. I'd be buying now if I didn't already have a position under water (I never, ever, ever, ever average down).

I may move it a bit. Anyway, this is reason for SL. I have a S at 98,2 and believe it will not break on daily. But I can imagine intraday spikey like to 98,08, so thats why I moved it.

edit: Imo not only that last spike, but whole form of bottom is suggesting heavy buying pressure below 98. Hope it works

Yeah pair has been fishing for stops. Buying at Sunday open was prob a bit aggressive, but I'd rather take on some more risk and be exposed instead of watching it go in my intended direction without me. Lets cross our fingers!

Maybe we should just be buying /ES instead lol.

Hehe, fingers crossed. But that bastard really is great in that stophunting. Can easily retrace up to 80% no problemo, we are still in chop zone. Really looking forward for break north, entering gets annoying

What about Yuan? Been reading lots of news about Yuan currency swaps w/ Europe and such. China trying to take over as global reserve currency from dollar from what I understand.

Imo this was primary reason for start of correction in E/U. Secondary are growing market expectations of ratecut or LTRO. And, noone cant take over as reserve currency right now, as would get bombed.

edit: I mean primary from Euro side. From USD side, it was Oil
edit 4 jgcole: indeed they do. Pretty much the same SL hunt after retest of major R.
