{quote} you say path is bearish and 1404 is norm before continuation or you still have 17xx/1.2xx as valid target in the current map . tech wise on monthly 1.122x is a normal move after last month close so bullish it is ...US data is not that good also .
.17 or 1.247 is not a straight path.. its a winding road. it's going to retrace many times before it reaches a goal. the larger goal for me is a test of 1.17, the level 1.1465 is part of that path.. so is 1.1228 where we were earlier. st bears were targeting 1.1225, usually before it will return to 1.140x.. so earlier near 1.1228/25, i was looking for a reason to long.. a smaller st set up a 1312 target.. right where its a place normal for 1.14 st bounce.. that one suggested 1.1253/till low was a place to long. agreeing with 1.14xx direction wise. 1.1225 may never be reached.. but if i wanted to short, patience and 1.14xx may be best to wait for.. meanwhile 1.14xx is above 1.1388.. i am not trading against the direction month and 1/4 suggested atm.

Why? Are the investors hoping for Air Force One to crash?
Why sell the bottoms when you can buy the tops...

reaction on Dax to this resistance hasn't been too promising so far :s, hasn't made a new high but struggled to cover some ground on its first test earlier

If i want any fresh long I will wait for 1180-60. But if it run above 1400 before 1180 then neutral view until 1487+
You cannot learn better without losing

ecb has been a non event or an opposite reaction to what ecb wants. i will take any ecb factor this way will continue till it stops. next week is a long way off. before ecb news is where i am slightly more positive toward euro. being near 1228 is probably like being near 1465 was.. back there 1347 to 1465 was the bracket. here 1228 1347 is a bracket. eu has a valid 1.2470 target, uj has a valid 106.33 target.. lots of noise expected toward a 1.17 test is just normal.

yep trading these two ...leaning towards upside direction wise ...1.14xx/5xx M/W wicks prove the cluster of resistance in that path , with that in mind a break on momentum will do the trick for 1.24xx.

ej may be at a cross roads for a bounce toward 137 or others .. aj another that may have a decent bounce coming (.96). ej up, while uj down, puts eu up.. it puts ua up. my eu and au charts agree (au less). it just hard for me to believe, whats indicated.
