It becomes obvious after a short while what people's motives are for posting. Anyone would be suspicious with sigs which circumvent the rules of the forum. If I see crap like (para) 'I write and program EAs which allow me to trade better for my ...

Not too many reasons to be short at the moment, sorry. The only glimmer I can see is the Daily TF price kissing the 50ema. Normally, I would expect a rejection of this test, but in these markets...... Also see some bearish div on the 1hr TF.

Watch out. Longs are risky, this could be a trap. My short was +29, but I let it ride for too long hense the -2. No big deal.

If you get that trade in reasonable profit, you could move stop to b/e +1 and let NFP perhaps take it up. You'd not have to open a new trade thus saving you spread.

Absolutely. I'm scalping for pennies in the range right now just to keep myself sharp and 'cos I need the practice. (and I do mean pennies).

Nope. I don't trade EY. I'm just giving you my opinion based on potential movement of UY and GY. If your own analysis makes you not convinced or even hopeful, you should carefully watch NFP and close quickly if looking bad.

You could always scalp the range? I'm doing that just to keep myself sharp, no big positions. Currently have a short order at 133.83.

Nothing fancy if i'm honest, just a previous area of confluence and S+R. Hit 139 in October last year and I think it represented the next downward phase back then. 139-141 ould provide strong resaistance now.

Not much of a retracement during Asia considering the huge moves yesterday, so I think we go marching upwards. Safety first so longs only for me until I see change on 1hr Gann. I would not be surprised to see 139 today.

***I suspect NFP will not be as bad as expected and GU will reverse*** Wouldn't this be positive for GY? I realise that GU will be affected, but in the past whenever NFP has been dire, GY has tanked along with UY, so I would expect further strength ...
