THERE'S A LOT OF CONCERN AND SPECULATION IN THE MARKET
06 euro.gif

Trend is down. Mark's signal is not out yet, but I would rather look for a short in the area of 4120 / 4150 / 4175. It has pierced the support of July 2011 and at this stage in heavy oversold conditions. On the other hand if one look at the daily chart - there is still plenty of room to 3836.
I be watching the M15/30 Stoch to get in overbought condition. To my mind it's got to retrace a bit for a good probality short trade.

I had to pay a visit to the dentist so I missed a good entry on the short (missed out on at least 40 pips)
06a euro.gif

short at 4186 sl 20 pips targets 4099 pivot and 4055
closed the trade at 4041 for 145+ as it reached the support of H4

my trading platform is IBFX one click. I was under the impression that one can modify the trade as I would have liked to change the sl to b/e. I soon discovered that it can't be done and after a chat with IBFX they too realized that it's a fault in their program. I would have liked to stay in the market for 2/3 days as this trade provided enough fat to do it, but with the fixed sl this was out of the q?. So until they've confirmed the change I'll trade the old way.

The priced reached the support of 4037 and I will wait for another retracement before going short again

PITY ABOUT YESTERDAY AS THE TRADE RENDERED GOOD PIPS
OFTEN ONE EXPECTS A REPEAT BUT THAT SELDOM HAPPENS - IT COULD BE A CONSOLIDATION DAY
07 euro.gif
Price found resistance at 4150 as Mark predicted. Good show Mark :D I waited a bit
SHORT 4085 on M15 as price crossed blue and histo dropped beneath signal and OsMa beneath 0.00 & ss on M15
sl 4098 targets 4000 being the 100% of M5 / 39718 being support of H4 as I believe it might test the support again / open thereafter
at 40+ pips moved sl to b/e
07a euro.gif

at this stage it looks like a sustained break of the diagonal trendline - collapse of the shortterm trend
render more than 70 pip but retraced again.
closed for 32+

TO BE OR NOT TO BE - THAT IS THE Q?
ARE THE GREEKS GOING UP OR DOWN? IS A SECOND SWING ONE IT'S WAY? AND ITALY?
And that's the reasons why this market does not really let us know whether its up or down.
yes, the trend is short, butttt, it reached a support at 3498, therefore heavily oversold. The last three days we've rising bottoms.
the only thing that might turn the bulls around is bad news in the EU

Thus far I couldn't watch the market so I didn't trade
So I'll consider a long in the area of 3620 (alt a break of 3750) or a short should it break the diagonal line

TRADING THE COLLAPSE OF THE SHORTTERM TREND (diagonal trend line)
took the trade as it crossed blue and histo left the signal line on M15
short @ 3692 sl 3720 very tight as it already breached the upper resistance line but it seemed to have found resistance at 3718 (61.8% on H1)

targets are pivot at 3642 / 3610 / 3592 being 100% of M5 / open after that

I haven't traded for a while - just too busy at the wood lathe
should we have a sustained break at the yellow resistance targets are 3614 / 3668 / 3700
in this scenario one can expect a down turn at any of the targets being good resistance areas
However should 3540 proof to be a good resistance a short is possible down to 3430

Cable might find resistance at 5522 / 5583
a short from the above might support at 5447
