Probably a bit contrarian here, but I have a target around 1.0970 on the long side. Bought the small news dip this morning, given some convincing impulses up in the last fews days. Booked some short after LC, we'll see how it goes. Surely it will retrace if not completely resume the leg down. Not to worry. Edit: 1.0750 looks interesting too. {image}

{quote} ...A vicious roll in a nasty day intraday. Slightly intraday bearish close but bastards didn't take profits so strong daily bullish move with a potential clean sweep for tomorrow. Whatever the case, 1.087x is naked until Europe wakes up with lots of air above in a break. sisse
As expected 1.087x tested early with Europe. A clean break opens clean sweep and unlock 1.098x. Failure back to chop zone for the weekly roll.

Well done all bulls from the lows.

0857-0833 can offer some support, if not we can dig deeper. 0930 looks a reasonable target on the upside for todayshould bulls decide to carry on.

It seems a reasonable target to me. The only thing I do not know if it will go there without retesting some normal levels like 0840-0800.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

German news will settle the deal. Direct play expected until we get back to the greek details at the end of the day. 1.087x only level to track until the bottom of the hour.

Profit taking and back to chop zone to 1.071x for the next few sessions or clean sweep 1.098x with a micro stop intraday until NY at 1.091x.

1.0853 and 1.0841 are good numbers to watch for pullback.

The DXY has a little bit farther to go before it hits this trendline, but not much

Full blown up gossip session as expected. Some of the comment coming in the wires are even funny [pathetic] but apparently the Greek PM got complete hammered in the meeting with some lecturing him like a naughty little boy ... uff a full soap opera...

So far nothing new, deal is a done deal to kick the can but not much yet in the final details. All the talking heads on rampage in the wires and euro like usual selling off on the sad comments.

Basically the next few hours will be just drawing the line for the compromise and timings and mostly to please the national constituencies (especially in Germany), but under the table like the last time its just a matter of the final confirmation.

We ended up with a flat session with finally a decent profit taking. Spike up and down on noise and back to the never ending 1.082x. Tracking 1.084x for NY and the London Fix before we enter in gossip mode until the end of the day with Greece again.

atm eu high (0845.3) to 0775.5 is = to that distance - 0706 (0705.7).. both important to me.
watching h closes 0842 and 0832.. week ends today.. -0775.5. probably bearish but months end has to agree next week. bears have a 1.01 or a 1.03 norm retrace with open valid targets for swingers. usdx did break a smaller db in some eyes, it was very close to a db to me.. but the crotch was slightly less then 50%. so i cant say one way or the other. it did miss my definition by 3 pips.. 3 pips is close, since it missed i go with it wasn't a db with a grain of salt

It was going up on "ghost" USD power which now shows on the fall. (right click and refresh is not fixing it? if not then go to your data folder and clear the charts history).

Thanks for the reply. Refresh is not fixing it. Deleted the data history of the H4. Open again, still the same issue
