| January 11, 2010 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
Strong buying in the EUR through early trading and currently sits at 1.4500, an interesting level. Continued movement above 1.4500 indicates at least a short-term swing higher for the EUR. Resistance beyond this level is scattered and does not come in significantly until the 1.4600 area, 1.4625, 1.4665 and the 1.4700 region. On the downside…

The trend is still down, but appears to be waning slightly; divergence is apparent on several times frames (although this is not a signal by itself, price needs to confirm).

EUR/USD – More of the Same for Dec 18?
| December 18, 2009 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
Definitely a tough day for the EUR. The pair fell over 200 pips at one point, but closed just inside that. The move was far beyond average, but as mentioned in previous posts, the 1.4500 level was very important and when the market broke through it, it fell aggressively and swiftly. This has put support…

Wednesday, despite lots of economic data, traded within a 90 pip range…rather similar Dec 14. It would appear we have a similar set up. Thursday will tell us if this is the case.
