    Really? So literally seconds after an ECB member makes a comment about QE the market reacts and EUR/USD (among other traded products) jumps up almost 35 pips, and it is strictly technicals? Sure thing ...

    Some people will never understand that fundamentals move the market and TA only works if the fundamentals are within expectation. Any unexpected news event/outcome/comment/tweet and we see spikes like this and depending on the news even much worse than this. Nothing to do with technical analysis at all.

  8. Overnight

    My guess is it was the breaking headline that came out right after the drop. So the algos picked it up on some newsfeed before the major media outlets could finish writing about it?

    You are in a position and two things can happen, news takes you in the direction of your trade or it hits your stop. In either case that's trading. Technical signals get you in, that's their role.

  10. i think it is more inline with the algos getting on it. but the catalyst has to be some news, it cannot be random, Otherwise it wont make sense trying to spike or drop the price with such conviction.
