Alt scenario, if EURUSD moves up to 835, then 925 is probable next week or by Wednesday. If unfazed on open Monday and continues to buy upwards past 50p from open, buying is strong and something's up like bad U.S. data or other known but currently unforeseen and unexpected to public/retail news. PA and OR/Frankfurt action on Monday will reveal. For the most part U.S. is not directly affected by Paris so USD shouldn't be either.

long at 39 TP at 59 SL at 29 -10p 2nd shot long at 1.07 TP 59 stop at 1.0690
Out at 20 +20p
-10p
-----------------------
+10p

Out for rest of morning. Need to tend to other stuff.


Took a look and still looks stable.

Long again at 20, risking morning's +10 as SL. Target of 59 remains.

SL moved to -5p. Out at 15.

Reversed at 1.0715 now short. Target is 1.0684. Risking the rest of this morning's profit.

If the market breaks cleanly below 14 again here soon, I think we have a chance to retest the morning low.

last impulsive short scalp earlier this morning was a mistake, got caught up in Asia session micro moves again against my better judgement and traded against my short term SR

just got back and long at 35. obviously other than weak hands selling at open, euro is not affected as much news would like you to believe.

stopped moved to BE+4, leaving it as is until at least london close, I'm done for the day, back to other chores.

I set up two buy limits after market open. 705 and 675. One got filled. Closed partial at 745, will leave the rest running.

That's brilliant. Just gonna take +4 if it's get's stopped at 39 any second now, but if/when we pop 45 we are in the gap zone and 75 equals prev close new daily high and 805 in sight....upside can move much faster than downside now that news has cleared. Showing micro support at 43 for the next 25 min so I may be good.

I don't know what's gonna happen next, not in front of the platform but the plan discussed during the weekend was, higher levels after 'delay' (drop). Working so far. The most important zone was 735-750-765. I just set an order one level down, and another down(not filled).

Edit watch out 15p above OR. Will pop in later. GL

BE+ is in, so not worried about losing 15p potential now, especially since intervallic support lines are creeping up similar to closing hours of Friday. It wouldn't surprise me we hit 1.0820 today even.

moved BE up and out at 43 +8p

early night out. GL everyone have a nice rest of monday

looking at the charts, EurJpy has reached upper limit at 132.03, and EurUsd has reached the 1.0760 level where we had the false break upwards on Friday.
So I expect small moves for Eur now perhaps down to the 1.0120 level.

But I expect both Eur and EurJpy to break upwards tomorrow.

It just showed weakness at the opening of the hour and couldn't hold the daily midline

the micro support at 43 suddenly turned into micro resistance.

getting out at/near 28 offer

Hehe, next stop should be 710, we'll see.

I'm wondering if we're gonna break 60p Monday chop rule today.
If not then 690-700 - 750-760 is the range.
