EURUSD Forex - TRUTH OR DARE
- The MKT is in a holding pattern and is trying to shift into a more aggressive positive position. Key of the 12854 Inlection Pivot for an indication of market sentiment. A held trade above here is needd to keep the buyers happy. A breach o 12926 conirms a fresh adance. A break under 12776 is needed to negate the underlying posiitve tone and put the MKT back on the defensive.
- On the SELL side avoid FADE strategies and use a REVERSAL instead. The MKT is excited but has yet to confirm any new advance. Expectations are that any false positive breakout signal will be met with a sharp negative reaction. BREAKOUT strategies are a lower probability but are valid and in line with a reversal scenario. If the MKT has already produced a false positive signal and is holding negative reversal structure, this strategy has potential.
- On the BUY side accept FADE, BREAKOUT and REVERSAL strategies. BREAKOUT strategies have the potential to run. If so, they will just "go" and not look back. Any stop and go action and any profits should be realized as it is more likely the MKT will be setting up a re-test of support to FADE before it can extend higher. FADE and REVERSAL strategies should work off initial major support and only provide one opportunity. Repeated tests or base building and it is more likely the MKT is going to search for its lower digestive extreme rather than resume a positive course.
