  1. eurusd update
    30 minute data showing the downtrend from 3rd april.this trend took all the stock markets down with it...a stronger dollar
    now..we have the beginnings of a new uptrend..no real confirmation as yet
    weaker dollar=stronger stocks
    6 pips by 1 hilo plot

  2. so what shall we look for in this possible new trend ??
    we change the chart to the close plot and we see a cluster of trendlines showing resistance.this is at the 1.3120 area which got tested on nfp..price then fell back.so there we have our potential area major res to this new trend.supports will be minor as it is a brand new trend.they can be picked off using 45 degree or subjective trendlines
    price actually did settle at 3088,which was a 50% low pole area .i will show that chart aswell

  5. ok...so we saw 1370 area be a pretty good supp area,except on monday when it overshot.but market flattened and rallied from that area.the friday close was 1370..bang on
    monday open and next week..if Spain troubles persist,then we look to next supp area at 1353. to 1360 .if its really bad news then this wont hold
    2 hour data
    box size is 11 by 1 reversal
    there is res at 1385 area/downtrend line..so that needs to be watched..if it gets near

  6. just remember that the s&p 500 at this point in time is a fake
    the latest breakout on this chart has not been supported as yet
    if it retraces then 1320 area is the 50% zone
    daily data10 points by 3 reversal

  7. a big week comin up for the dollar
    audusd daily data.a big res area that should get tested
    rba rate decision and monetary policy this week
    non farm payrolls and adp employment data
    1.0500 area to watch
    audusd shows a decent trend..eur and cable are messy charts.imho
    should set the tone for dollar crosses
