On a technical point, the Deutsche Mark was the DM; not the DEM.
Regardless of that, I would have expected the Euro to get a huge boost, after yesterday's Greek election results. That didn't happen so, it seems that the markets are still worried as to what other "black swan" type revelation is going to hit the Euro next.
Incorrect.
DEM it is. See here and anywhere else you might want. Always was always will be

------------------------------------
it did get a huge boost by virtue of a nice gap up in realtime but then it fell.
Those who trade by the conventional NEWS die and fall squarely into the realm of 95% traders fail - they all have that in common.
Get away from NEWS and go strictly by TREND - even then you might fail and take losses but the point is you've reduced the failure odds against yourself considerably - that might be all the edge you need.
case in point ....
Daily trend on Euro is DOWN = stay Short = yawn what goes on in Greece
could it be that Euro has put in a bottom already and that I will only find out later on the daily chart? Yes, its quite possible but the point is that 90% of the time the trend warning on daily comes close to the infexion aka bending point.
I'm willing to take that 10% risk and stay short when the trend says so.
