A swing play will extend until the W/M/Q roll so plenty of action till then. Losing 1.112x with Europe going home unlocks 1.097x for the Q roll while to the other side is FOK (fill or kill) for coughing bulls for a test 1.133x with all eyes on 1.129x for the Q roll....

It's 1.1050, and it was talked about long ago
It was a typo on my side, a missing "."

It's 1.07071 I'm talking about.

I made a mistake and we're not talking about the same number. That doesn't lower the value of your chart in any way, though.

Have a good one.

.......swing play will extend until the W/M/Q roll so plenty of action till then. Losing 1.112x [check held]with Europe going home unlocks 1.097x for the Q roll while to the other side is FOK (fill or kill) for coughing bulls for a test 1.133x with all eyes on 1.129x [in play] for the Q roll.... GL all ...here playing the direct move with remaining longs ...
A rather limited action to end the week. I was expecting a bit more juice intraday ... In any case, Euro easily held 1.112x for the news, and as suspected all week long, we are getting ready to roll around the only level in play for the week @ 1.117x

---> Bulls seriously starting to cough at these levels on top of a full house of dollar hawkish comments and reports. Tracking W roll 1.117x and trailing remaing longs to stop me out on the minimum wind.

---> More importantly, changing US equities mid term outlook from NEUTRAL to SOFT BUY with today close.

best I can say is we's hammering out a bottom around /ES 1900 - but if the US govt calls a shut-down I wouldn't want to be standing under it....

The Dow average was a bit strong today because of Nike earnings but the equities leader (S&P) was weak again along with Nasdaq being weak.
3rd quarter earnings soon could give a change in direction but looks weak until then as there's usually warnings (like CAT just gave) before any good reports.

nope, I didn't unwrap the battery yet, it's sitting on my desk nicely.

unfortunately, nothing on that site is irrevertable from microsoft's side and the licencense agreement for win8.1 and win10 would make me deliberately opt-out of my freedom, so screw windows on this machine... no needed for trading.

Strong bulls holding 1.1143 from 1.1118. The Euro by itself seems very well supported at these levels with the ECB holding the reins on QE.

It's the dollar story to track, then, with the very hawkish comments from Yellen and the latest GDP print.

I've got 1.123x and 1.1280 as resistance. I'm sure the highs are well capped now after those comments.

Bought at ~ 1.117xx.
The TA suggest buy on every time frame, only m15 points (temporary?) down.
Time will tell.
