Forex Signals – EURUSD Still Falling
Recap: We didn’t enter any new trades before the weekend (as promised), or yesterday since the US Banks were closed for Memorial Day. The markets did open with a bullish gap, however, which has already been closed and the pair is within 20 pips of it’s Friday closing price.
The medium trend is definitely bearish – taking a look at today’s chart you can see the price very steadily goes from the top left of the chart to the bottom right after a steady diet of lower lows and lower highs. Driving this of course is the political turmoil in Greece and the greater eurozone. Traders fear the unknown and the unknown in this scenario is a Greek exit from the eurozone.
Today’s Important News Events:
| Date | Time (UTC) | Event | Forecast | Previous |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tue May 29 |
12:00 | EUR German Consumer Price Index (YoY) (MAY P) | 2.1% | 2.1% |
| 12:00 | EUR German Consumer Price Index – EU Harmonised (YoY) (MAY P) | 2.2% | 2.2% | |
| *To see a more extensive list of news events (not just those we consider important), visit our Forex Calendar. | ||||
Trading Idea: We are still very bearish on the pair but we are tracking a clean falling resistance from yesterday and will take an aggressive long on resistance break with targets at 20/20/20/20 for 80 pips. We will close and get short on a support break with the same targets.

sahara
May 29, 2012 at 10:12will test lower!! ??
Chip
May 29, 2012 at 10:46@sahara I see no point in going long, because it’s against the trend, at least until things settle down in Greece and in Spain, so if you want safe trading – wait for a rally and go short in the 1.2570 – 1.2600 area. It’s what I’ve been doing the past few days and it brought me a lot of pips. I agree that you can make the pips going long too, but it’s more risky – maybe you like the adrenaline rush :)
sahara
May 29, 2012 at 11:45yes @chip sorry was away ! agree with you (but just pips when up or down : pips are safe now only one lot still working if any rally !!! … but i beleive 25 is a strong S for moment
Chip
May 29, 2012 at 12:11I agree @sahara , for today 1.2500 is a good support … we’ll shall see for how long it will hold (this week it will probably hold).
sahara
May 29, 2012 at 12:2616 pips again from low haha !! good for me !!

Chip
May 29, 2012 at 13:26@gybankster I believe that some people make money going long to from 1.2520 up, and it’s not necessarilly because they are stubborn or full of ego – it’s only that they have a bigger appetite for risk than me and they want to take advantage of the rallies too. I agree with you that some people are stubborn to defend the Euro – they are joined by the european banks which sit on many billions of Euros and don’t want to see them lose value.

John R
May 29, 2012 at 15:00Hello everyone. I had a nice long weekend holiday, remembering the troops of Freedom!
Pipping has been great, even on Monday. Believe it or not, a slow ranging market also does wonders for my pipping system.
Let’s keep the pipping and screaming going!
sahara
May 29, 2012 at 15:09hi @johnr

May 29, 2012 at 15:25who says trend is not your friend? i is better late than never, sticking ot he trend is a sure way of wininig

EURUSD has fallen to 2477 in a hurry
John R
May 29, 2012 at 15:53End of London session is very close. I expect 2450 to hold…or even 2475.
Try again another day.

Maria
May 29, 2012 at 18:09Come on boys, admit it, which one of you broke the euro again?
I’ll go into defense on longs on a 4h closing under 2480. Still think there will be a correction coming at some point and when it comes it will probably be fairly evil, but as said under 2480 too gamey for me to hold short term longs.
John R
May 29, 2012 at 20:51I didn’t do it! It can do whatever it wants to.
But Maria….I sense that you are hungry for more shorts. So, I’ll root for nasty Longs for your fades.
Maria
May 29, 2012 at 21:59I’m always hungry for more shorts for mid-terms, but not at these levels John
John R
May 29, 2012 at 22:02What? You’re finally giving up?
Maria
May 29, 2012 at 22:10I started looking for long opps end of last week, as said I want my 270-275 back for starting to re-position mid shorts, I might be way off here again of course, but I’ll take my chances until 2460-2480 holds intraday closes.
BeMoreWild
May 29, 2012 at 21:10Dear john n maria be carefull with ur longs till Olympics start GBP is weak but will take euro up in the air:) but we still have almost 15 days more for shorts just try to catch it from secure levels…im thinking of 12420 n 12390 for long and 12550 for shorts…..has any1 seen a gap near 1100 area maybe its coming to fill that…
John R
May 29, 2012 at 22:02Thanks.
No one can predict when the trend changes. So, I just do whatever as long as it is along the current trend.
Maria
May 29, 2012 at 22:05Um, not sure what plan your trading but none of these levels does anything for my game, but whatever works for you of course.
Nighty night, have a good one everybody

Chip
May 30, 2012 at 08:29@Harry please watch out for the EU economic data due today at 11:00 CET because if they are really bad your SL might be hit. It’s just my feeling but I think Economical Sentiment and Consumer Confidence will be lower, but we shall see.

Maria
May 30, 2012 at 10:48Hello all, I’m out of longs on both fiber and cable, started the defense but it was dropping too fast and decided to take a 100 pip loss combined across all positions. I’ve had an excellent month and didn’t want to risk that now in the last 2 days.
I still think that a correction will be coming at some point and when it does it will most likely be quite angry but my plan was definetly invalidated for the moment.
sahara

Buy, buy, buy????????….hmmmmm….might become “Die, die, die” as nothing good can possibly come out from the EZ to boost any confidence in the Euro.
DDimopoulos
May 30, 2012 at 12:54Well there could be baqd news from the US ie. bad enough to strenghthen the euro rather than increase risk aversion. Remember every where has its problems, its just which one is less serious. So EU could easily streghthen as well as weaken.

May 30, 2012 at 13:45gm all….
only one thing will stop the plunge…
massive govt money printing
Having said this I think the USD is close to a correction
——————————————————————————————————-
Prices are staging an intraday bounce but a bearish Breakaway candlestick pattern remains valid and continues to warn of a larger pullback ahead. Initial support lines up in the 10134-41 area, defined by the 76.4% Fibonacci expansion and the October 2011 swing high, with a break lower exposing the 61.8 expansion at 10078. Alternatively, a daily close above the 10225-41 area marked by the May 25 high and 100% Fib would neutralize bearish cues.
————————————————————————————————————-
FWIW.. I have closed all my shorts and will wait for a sustained break below 2400 or a correction to reopen another position.

May 30, 2012 at 20:31Trading simply does not get any easier than this…
What we are seeing is a slow deliberate and methodical dissolution of euro positions..
Notice the uniform size of the candles in the various tf’s….
There is very little volatility attached and any corrections have been relatively predictable…
However… as I do believe a correction is due any positions I hold are intraday only now and have a small sl.. fwiw still short from 2396 …gl all

May 31, 2012 at 08:31goodmorning to all, i think 1.236 was the midterm bottom, we will go up to about 1.2650 at least before taking another dive into the deep. Just my view of course and probably wrong, but i give it to you anyway. So long 1.24 stop 1.234 tp 1.264. With a small lot of course…
good luck today! should be a good day because it is my birthday!
@johnny nice article you posted there, there are some smart people in Leuven!
