I've "watched" the eur/usd during Asia for the past 12 months and the most it has move was around 70 pips in July after some Chinese data and it was back to where it was by the end if session.. My first day live was today and it moves about 120 pips and doesn't seem likely to come down any time soon FML heh :-(
My first day of live trading, it moved 700 pips against my position. I kept on buying from 1.2700 after it broke 1.3000. All were expecting a fall of 200 pips. I had only 36 cents left in free margin before it came back from 1.2400 or so, finally recovered $618 from my $700 account. This is how this market moves. Good thing is that you and I learned our lessens earlier than many here.

Anyone shorting here seems to me as purely gambling! No rationale at all for it other than the fact it has moved up a long way today.
With tight sl, short is a good gamble. I am short on demo, but not on live accounts. Live accounts went dormant until Mid Jan.

{quote} NO NO NO, always put SL, even if it is 100 pips. What if there is "breaking news", for example "IRAN DROPS NUCLEAR BOMB ON ****". Or " PRESIDENT OF *** SHOT DOWN" This can instantly move the market with 500 - 1000 pips... . Real example, earthquake in Japan, it sipked 150 pips.
If these events do happen, the price will gap and your stop lose will be filled in tens of pips if not hundreds ...

How would you say such a thing as if to sell d EU at 1.38XX is not at all unfair. In no so time she would be down and near 32XX.
Keep the Lights on then you can catch the rise from the dark.

Sure, but at least it will be filled rather then having a margin call and an account wiped out.
Being right is one, taking it from the table is two.

she did not break the 38 strongly….. she is gently making HL's and HH's….. seems she does not want to be noticed….. a clear sign of strength..

Extreme overbuy in short term TF.
If it directly hit 3832 I won't buy until a fair retracement.

And what sized stop loss you going to use? Plus in no time at all it could be up to 1.4xx - who knows? It's risen 100+ pips today already - why short here with so much strength ? Why could it not go on for another 100+ before any sort of real retrace? That's why saying shorting here is a gamble against what the price action is showing now.

since London opened, both euro and pound were bought up. You would think the london guys do not like a high euro for fearing it would hurt euro zone economy?

12 successive green H1 candles in a row !! i think it's rare to see such a pattern.
next "possible" targets are 1.3830 then 1.3860

This could do anything from here. Looks like its poised to rip up take all the stops out at 13850 and go for 140 in an illiquid environment.
The main thing that seems to be distorting this EU is Yen.
Yen selling seems to be reaping havoc in the markets.

Well, this is the "classic resistance", o good place to take at least partial profit in my view, nobody knows if this is genuine run, it could also be just a move initiated from market movers to make more money buy triggering all the sitting ducks stops. If it is a genuine one we will know only afterwards. What I know is that we do not need to know to make money...

good night

Here it goes again:
BUBA’s Weidmann says ECB must raise interest rates in time should inflation pressures mount

They want steady rise for euro whatever ECB says against euro bull is to protect euro from bubbling.

This guy is a tool...for weeks he said ECB could act for negative rates and now we are at the top he is talking about rate rise.

Hi guys! I'm new here, not sure if I'm seeing it correctly, but I see a bearish bat here. Planning to short at 1.38579, what do you guys reckon?
