in EUR/USD I have short limit order at 1.305 t/p 1.2755 which will be converted into a long stop order at 1.3085 t/p 1.32490 s/l 1.3035
If it makes another run on the heavy resistance at 1.305 and fails I'll make money.. If it breaks through I'll get stopped out but will have a long order with twice the lots of the short trade ready to ride the breakout as well..
It will take something pretty huge to get EUR/USD up over the 1.33 area.. If you look on the daily charts you see a thorny forest of resistance right around there..but if it does make it over I have an order for quadruple the lots of the original short trade .. long stop order 1.339 t/p 1.38 s/l 1.334
If you remember how quickly EUR/USD rebounded last time you would do well to prepare for something similar should it make over 1.335.. I'm giving it plenty of room to poke its nose around before I finally jump in as well.. With a move this potentially huge you afford yourself a little safety and still get plenty of pips..
EUR/USD went from 1.238 to 1.47 in 9 days in December.. The question is whether or not EUR/USD can get upward legs in the face of near certain rate cuts in March..
