{quote} i dont use indicators to define the trend. in fact i ask myself what are the fundamentals of the 2 currency in the pair im trading.... namely the monetary policies involved. once i got an idea of the monetary policy, whether if its diverging or not... diverging monetary policies make fore amazing trends and directions to trade with. once you have an idea of the direction, all a matter of finding the trend by plotting a trendline on the chart. i prefer the daily chart. i dont trade anything lower than the daily.

If you find a trend and you think its gonna reverse, just keep your guts and go with the trend. Until you see a clear reversal pattern. Use 4 hour or daily charts.

ill use daily closes to determine if a trend is finished or not... so far i have not seen a daily close above the downtrend since the start of the trendline from ~1.4

{quote} How do YOU define the trend, please? Timeframe and ema? I have seen 2 sma on monthly to 20 ema on 4H. I know you trade bigger timeframes. BTW: enjoy your posts and particularly the live account details, not many people here are that forthcoming! Your progress over the last five years should be a stimulus to other people here. Keep up the good work.

Does anyone know how the upcoming swiss currency reserves will affect this pair?

If it shows the Swiss are actively intervening in the EURCHF will it be good or bad for the Euro overall?

the reason why i dont use any technical indicator to define trend, its because indicators are delayed often using history of 14 or 21 or 50 or 200 candles previously chart.... problem with this is that these indicators are lagging.... soo by the time they show a trend. its probably too late already....

Great ride for bull everyone ! Suppose this is a strength, we should see more bull in action tomorrow or next week. But to me, this is just a sneeze on the down trend. I still favor bear, we shall see ~

I know this is off topic but anyway. I usually trade only EUR/USD but I cant help looking at USD/JPY. We are getting close to 2007 highs. Anyone that has a qualified opinion on where this sucker is heading?

. Should take a week or so... waiting for 5407 myself. And at the moment seems to me that we have missed 4109 or so on the way up, so I'm trying to squeeze in the odd short if I got a signal on h1.

EURUSD tried to rally during most of the day yesterday, but struggled to stay above the 10-day moving average and the pair gave up about half of the gains considering that the non-farm payroll numbers are release today. Most traders will be willing to get out of the market at the end of the day, as the volatility should pick up this morning. So rallies all the way up to the 1.2577 level will offer selling opportunities.
