Yen is one of the safe havens in times of trouble. Closed my GU and EJ longs, holding my AU long for now.

The USD is also considered a safe haven.

Yah was looking at this too when I traded (though the open was based on technical reasons). If the Russian/Ukraine conflict blows out over the weekend I would be in a loss. I thought it better to B.E. than to "gamble" everything will be ok when the market opens on Monday. Even with positive news releases next week, with bad news in Ukraine it still could be negative. If it turns out ok I may still have an opportunity to enter at a better price.

Just wondering Why have you drawn the top line of the descending channel below the candle wicks? If the line had been drawn from their tops it would show price being contained within the descending channel.

You are right, especially if you look at EUR/USD. I move to this week my last week target 0.9380

around 25 - 26 aug. will be turning point sharp down.

Hi. Sure there is a TL forming there, though not sure how strong it will be as it has only 3-5 touches at most atm (if I have displayed your meaning correctly). The TL that I have drawn has stopped price around 10+ times before a bodied candle broke the line making it a more significant line imo and I will be looking for those repercussions in the price. It is always possible to fan out a TL but by the time the decision is made to trade the BO it could be over.

On top of this the BO has reacted like it should imo, with the BO and then a pullback to the TL before a further move up.

Could it be another low-volume melt-up until the London open. Sell it in Europe and buy it back when London closes.

Is a pattern emerging here?

I'd just like to point out (while i'm bored) that silver is getting close to some attractive levels (back to multi-year lows)

This pair has been quiet for the long and short trader. Eventually one will be rewarded.
