hm...no entry point for me thus far...
TA time...a bear flag shown on EU daily, flag may end next week. no clear direction at this moment...while EU is on a struggling up move channel...market would surely need a good surprise this time

perhaps the only nation looking good economically left is....China. @kelvin last week i expected an up move (even though i hate making expectations on the market)...but with the given the outlook of this week, no idea where's the direction now. Sentiments and monies are rather scattered, but on plain TA (which i don't rely solely on its own), the bullish reversal on EU may fail by next week. Breaking the support line of the up move may cheat away with quite some pips though. Just my opinion This post has been edited by small-jeff: Oct 9 2008, 09:19 PM

i thought it will be bottomed out by now.. and the global cut in interest rates signalled an economy reversal to me.. but it seems to just freeze there n not moving.. i'm not much in TA as i'm still learning.. >< thanks for ur opinion.. heh i'm here to learn after all ^^
Added on October 9, 2008, 9:24 pmdecided to short GU... the daily pivot seems to be quite a resistance here.. and stoch shows its overbought..

Getting Started

now there no much trend or direction. better to trade on major S/R, using momentum indicator for entry or exit.

i think a long on EU at 1.3655 is a good point too.. daily pivot seems to be a strong resistance/support also.. =) but i wont be entering as i'm already in a trade..dun wanna overtrade
Added on October 9, 2008, 9:32 pmlol..actually small-jeff... do u think that this weeks market.. there is no TA that actually does give u a higher percentage of getting a correct trade ? i feel like the market this week is mostly gambling for me .. nothing seems to b working the way it should

Not to forget, China itself is a huge market. With the recent slow down, even as the shares drop, it's still not in the state of recession. The reason, it has a rather sustained 11% growth, the current slow down reduced it to 8%, a rate which typical nations would have considered a good rate at good times...
