Hey folks,
Awhile back when we broke through 1.3150 again, I said the EUR/USD would likely rally to around 1.3800. I've actually mentioned that level a few times and we finally saw it get there Sunday night and top out. Now I think the technicals are finally lining up with the long term technicals I brought up two weeks ago:
https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/fore...rket-update-09-22-2010-long-term-insight.html
I've been waiting for the good chance for a position trade short on the Euro for quite some time and it seems like now's the time. I'm short on the EUR/USD for a position trade (got it not long ago around 1.3670) with a 200-300 pip SL. I tend to manage my position trades with a bit of grid trading so I don't mind if we get a bit of a rally today (I think we may) as I'm set to sell into that rally.
AU Monday had no trade on Retail Sales, but there was a huge selloff on the surprise decision to keep rates unchanged. My guess was a 70 pip spike, but it turned out to be 80, so I was close. AUD should be relatively weak until the London close in the NY morning, so any retracements on either AUD/USD (0.9620, or 0.9640) should present good selling opportunities if a rally happens to mount. In news Tuesday:
0428 UK Services PMI (51.0 expected) - Sometimes this can move slow and steady other times it's quick and sharp. You never can be too sure which style will show up; however, in general a smaller deviation of 0.5 to 0.9 has a better chance of moving slowly (3-15 minutes) towards a 40 pip or so target, while a 1.0+ deviation should hit a 50 pip target and may do so more quickly.
--If it comes out at 51.6 or higher, GBP/USD should rally 40-50 pips
--If it comes out at 50.4 or lower, GBP/USD should drop 40-50 pips
