This market is in a BEARISH over ALL down trend..............it has made a lower lows in all time....that lower low was challenged in 1985 and rejected.....and has been upward since then and until it takes out 1.19/1.15...we are still in that upward correction. Now…. BUT market  was also rejected at very high prices and I really can’t see this going there….but who the _ell knows….what I do know……..ATM….we are in a bearish correction TO A BULLISH movement  since market hit 1.43 area and until it takes out those highs……market will pause there…before deciding to go any higher…..but first it must take out the highs of 1.3200 area to decide if wants higher……..and it must take out the lows of 1.2700/1.2500 to decide if want lower………………………..and everything in between is money….. there will be lots of “ISSUES” along the way…..so now you decide what you wish to do in your trading career….GOOD LUCK

Have a 0.2 lot sell from 1.29 and a 0.6 lot sell from 1.3060... If goes down a bit, loss is covered easily. If goes up, will wait until the next top and sell 1.5 lots
