Heads up guys. I just got an email from my broker saying that due to the situation in Greece they will be moving EURUSD and EURJPY to the FX Special group (which entails different margin and leverage) and that they mayl be restricting the size of open positions, increasing the spread and may limit orders to close only from 29.June. The LAST time I got such an email (which I stupidly ignored since I dont trade EURCHF) was on Jan 12th 2015. And we all know what happened three days later, which made me resolve to pay attention the next time...
What does this mean? may limit orders to close only from 29.June.

This sounds just like trading Futures.
When you get to "last-trading-day" of the front-month contract, they limit trading in the contract for the last 30 days to only participants that have open positions. Open positions can either close during the last 30 days or take physical delivery.
So by the sound of your email, on June 29th, you'll no longer be able to open any new positions in EU until they release the restriction.

I will reply to that to bump it up. There is defenetly possibility of large event even though its mostly pushed away (aside from being in news all the time), and especially important becouse this isnt like SNB event where only 1% traders here might have been invovled, in EUR even pretty much large part would be in.

I am waiting yet from ICM what they have to say in regards to margin limits.

Well, I am out for now. Highly uncertain at this time. I was favouring buy but what I am seeing here now has me thinking twice. I'll wait and see what happens with this S/R level before I get in again. GL to all!

EURUSD Weekly Outlook

On idle days I like to experiment. Here I want to show you the percentages to "Price Difference" over 15 years. CCI is set to 52 weeks of a year. You can see that CCI has made a nice cycle and wants to go up again. That's why I insist to stay bullish in LONG term. 1.2030 is a significant future weekly/monthly target.

If you look at average percentages in price change then actually 37.5% is the highest among the majority (if we exclude 61.8 or higher) therefore even if we would go lower in future the lowest it could go is as you can see on image: 1.00099.. so the dream of some people who want to see 1 dolar equals 1 euro could still be true.

But for now: I believe we are slowly going up again. 15% and 23% targets in mind: 1.2030 and 1.2866

But no rush.. these should be just a roadmap for some of you for the very long term run.

Happy Trades

Y no rush, am gonna stay long for next few years
edit: Btw, if you helped me with that VBA formating, I got prepared macro to count fibo percentages of whole wave structure dependent on set parameters (ie you wanna look for moves 100pips + and 20% retracement min etc...so you set, run macro and it picks hi/lo and measures percentage of strength) But so far it works only on closes, as Hi/Lo macro still has issues with those dates.
