Most important Support now is 1.06800 – it separates us from 1.01000…
What I see on this chart are 5 attempts to reach the Downtrend line ( currently at 1.13650 ) and 5 times rejection on lower parallel line , and all within last 12 months.
If all goes well and EURUSD continues Down ( we have only first signs of it ), 1.01000 would be in grave danger – as it opens a road for way lower levels….like 0.75
Talking Big, as market is pretty lame when it comes to intraday moves …goes undecided , just to start a sudden move , but without any visible strength – so difficult to trade it with the confidence.
Having hit the 154.50 target and then some (low 154.36), this level become pivotal in dictating whether levels shown on this chart get exposed or 155 exerts a magnetic pull.
If I was in the BoJ’s shoes, I would be quietly in the market taking back some interventions and smnothing the market but I am here typing and trading, not a central banker.’

Bottom line, 154.50 and 155 dictate what comes next.
GVI 10:46 points 2 and 3 could use detailed “how” technique discussion of how to chose the “best odds” buffer for NOT getting stopped and remain in a trade for taking a ride when the low volatility breaks out.
It seems it has been eons ago the forex market was characterized by higher volatility, with average daily ranges exceeding 1% of the spot price more the norm than the exception.
If you are currently trading the forex market, it is hard to not recognize the lower volatility and choppy trading that have frustrated not only trend traders but day traders as well. I look at volatility as a market characterized by tight daily ranges and limited follow through with choppy trading, limited trends and often false starts in both directions. It is a matter of adapting in this environment to take advantage of opportunities to trade.
NEW YORK, July 24 (Reuters) – A look at the day ahead in Asian markets by Alden Bentley
Markets were subdued ahead of second quarter earnings from Alphabet (GOOGL.O), opens new tab and Tesla(TSLA.O), opens new tab released after the close of regular trade on Tuesday. The first of the market-leading mega caps to report left a mixed picture for after-hours trade with scope to spill across time zones on Wednesday.
When Aussie traded under 6660 it signaled the devil is behind the selling. Therefore, if the dark side continues to win and sticks to my US Dollar Index view then we may see 6500 or so at which point entertaining the buy side may be prudent depending on fundamental/neural conditions at the time.
