imho e/u is a bull trap. the most likely scenario is sharp fall. orders from oanda: {image}
To be noted is that many retail traders (which to me represent small uninformed speculators) have the same opinion. This is usually a bad sign, if the majority of little guys is selling, the price can proceed higher. So I'll keep a tight stop and monitor the price action...

I agree with this K, but for the fun die reason of rebalancing portfolios. My friend is a portfolio manager and he says he does it for month end, so the EUR drama is clearly affecting it.  EUR stocks hedged against currency.

Bought e/u, feeling suicidal. The premise is, paraphrasing Mingary, that the purpose of the financial instrument is to create maximum financial damage to a majority of participants. Looking at my broker's order book e/u is oversold, this point of maximum damage is around 1.125, and there is typical london open reversal pa at play. Stops tight.
