{quote} If you want to speak to me, do not be afraid - i normally do not bite ... A) How do you know the exact pips number or even percentage?! Even if, this moron who was calling for a swing trade almost near the bottom - i'm not sure 8x pips justify it .. B) You do not promote a trade for consecutive days, only to cancel it with few words. ( He was talking about accumulating a short position for a medium term) His trade didn't survive few days.
sorry i was not. speaking toward you. on the second part, trading is about flexibility. one has to make a choice to tp or not when things look different. also he and i got in that trade near that top. i was 1 pip from the top at the time. with norm in mind. my first goal is to not lose a trade when i look for a entry. goal 2 is to tp near target or when things change. goal 1 was met, a small part of 2 was met. i am in the ea again s like in an earlier post. goal 1 has been met in it atm. we trade different, the whole market does. if not there is no market. .

{quote} Ok, thanks. I got it. But sometimes (very rare I reckon), the real action starts after L close.
That's very rare.. and contrary to popular belief that's why I don't trade this anymore. It's not for the U.S. time zone traders.. Used to be, not anymore.

These pillow irrelevant talks does not fly ...

The issue is the monthly chart and one month time frame! He stayed on the trade for almost a week, promoting it here and else. The projected confidence in the trade took few hours, not only to exist the short trade but swing to the opposite side. ( Which he missed, since he bought the retrace) ... what has happened in few hours to make him dramatically change his opinion?!

The possible answer is, he is a moron projecting monthly range on 1 minute chart or he does not know what he is doing?!

I'm stubborn, I'll not short it untill it reaches 3976. Then, and then only I'll short it. Untill then, long biased but witout trading it directly, because the euro movement is crappy.

I'm with you on that. It felt like the ultimate top for the 1st half of 2014... just a projection.

ea atm 4904. the higher b/o sets up 500x, however going back to 4743 happens quite often before 500x. the high atm is the mid point (4926) to 1.500x. when a b/o occurs during during a news spike, that mid point is often the end of the b/o. a good place to tp often. and a possible new trade the other direction. or a possible setup to reload if one had a bullish bias at near 4743. the same theory on the aud
just in case.. if it comes up again. in from 4926 (4922) stops are above 4927 still but i closed 20% for 25 pips. so now my s/l above the high is green on this individual trade.

It's always better to trade one's own plan and be disciplined ( though that's not my case).

I still trust his "unconventional" methods when pressure becomes great.
In the euro area, the European Central Bank has warned that the single currency’s almost 6 percent gain against the dollar in the past year undermines price stability. Inflation (ECCPEST) in the 18-nation bloc was 0.5 percent in March, about a quarter of the central bank’s goal of just under 2 percent.
ECB President Mario Draghi has said there is “unanimous” support among policy makers for unconventional measures to shore up inflation if needed, and hinted that further currency gains could prompt action."

Sorry for highlights just easier to see

His method whatever that may be would be measure to weaken the Euro otherwise there is no point to take action because Euro is strengthening on its own.

{quote} Call it intuition or crack pot theory if ya want. But its that feeling of a Wednesday pump to the 1,382 - 1,385 spike region before the retrace towards 1,37 in the upcoming week. good chance that usd home sales are in the gutter and that german pmi is decent.

Hi Davit, I'm not long on eurusd. I stopped trading it since several months now. So Mario can drop his bomb, I'll not be injuried and it'll not effect more than 36 hours and then the market will do whatever it wants to do.

Sure, no short for me without 3976. It's a golden rule.
