    Plan for today is to be short EUR if it gets to/near 1.45 -- will have a stop at around 1.4510 with the plan to re-short if it goes to 1.4520..

    Big number resistance and oe3dr..

    move down to 1.4458 -- almost tempted to take a long but going to be patient and look for a good opportunity for another good short..

    hypothesis is that we've marked the high of today's at 1.4484... Expected low by midnight 1.44-1.4420 -- as I type EUR hitting resistance at 1.4452.. will look for a short at 1.4465 area now

    came very close to 1.4465 but didn't hit -- and just dropped really quickly didn't get a chance to short -- and now at 1.4452.. no position at the moment..

    As an aside -- I do note that JPY and ES are moving in tandem last couple of days
