Quoting Davit
Smart thing to do is expect the worse and place limit shorts when you think it will spike up say 3750-38 and once triggered simply wait for price to settle down. Euro zone is in deeper shit then US in terms of economy hence longer term bull is unrealistic to expect. There is already momentum to start cutting QE as early as Jan 014 My limit is ready triggers fine not triggered fine as well. To overcome the anxiety of draw-down reduce your lot size and allow additional lots to be used later. Take 1 lot or 2 divide into 4 or 8 mini lots and use them...
Agree, euro zone is still underwater. UK will come out first among US and Eurozone.

Consider to put Sell limit before NFP : 1.3750/60. It seems we had clue yesterday on ADP.

Still holding Short EJ @ 139.50 and AU @ 0.9052

If cost of News coming up is greater then you are willing to pay then skip the battle all together.That's tactic as well.

Been a long time since I put a mutli-TF analysis on this thread so here you go:

Monthly: (see chart)
There is a falling trend since the dizzy heights back in 2008
The current bull is an ABC correction of the last bear run 1.493x -> 1.204x and has made a 61.8% retrace so far.
As long as 1.383x holds I first consider a correction of the bull 1.204x -> 1.383x in play.
The upside scenario on monthly is limited, I have potential targets up as high as 1.430x but the falling trend is likely to negate these and the RR skew is very poor for longs so even if it goes there I am not interested in trading it.

Weekly/Daily: (see Daily Chart)
The weekly pattern reflects the daily, but I will discuss as daily for greater clarity.
As per the monthly as long as 1.383x holds I am looking at a downside correction in play.
Since the 1.383x high the price has made an AB of and ABC corrective pattern and currently sits in the B leg (ie: B may not be complete)
As long as yesterdays high holds I will consider the B leg complete and the yellow bubbles on chart represent my targets for the correction
If the high yields I stand aside to see what happens with 1.383x and look for a new potential completion of the B leg below 1.383x
RR for the downside is very good with yesterdays high being close and yet the targets so far below.

H4: (see chart)
Breaking down the Daily correction in play...
H4 shows that the B leg has now corrected the bear 1.383x -> 1.329x to full target zone (yellow bubble).
If 1.367x yields then the B leg is not complete and I wait to see if it will post a new top below 1.371x
If 1.367x holds then shorts are favoured as per Daily scenario

Yes, Davit! For me, Swissy is not good for averaging due to high correlation with EU.

Got lost Swissy last night, Entry at 0.8983, stopped out at 0.8960.
Tight SL, but still got profit from EJ

Nah, just take into account half of FEDs QE is aimed at MBS market and BOE and BOJ are pumping it as well. Once inflation starts to bite, they are gonna need to withdraw, banks are gonna get hit hard, rates will spike, housing will crash again, and I am gonna buy new flat for pocket change. Am gonna quote this call in five years .

Haha, please remind this quote! We'll see in a year.

To anybody from Emerging Market (esp. Indonesia), brace yourself for getting hit by The Fed and Uncle Ben for the last time before he step down.

1) it has taken him 8 years to make one post, he will never get enough posts to ban anybody
2) if you ban somebody for no reason I will have to ban you, therefore you will not get to ban everybody that you want
