EUR swing trade idea

    Posted by matt on 4th of Aug 2010 at 02:48 pm

    Since some of you mentioned EUO (cspirit, Rank, etc) I really like EUO, it's getting to be low risk down in here

    There is positive divergence via the MACD histogram so I think it's getting close to a bounce, however the regular MACD still needs some work, therefore I think EUO will likely have a nice bounce soon but then have another pullback and form divergence on the regular MACD

    Longer term wave count I'm not sure if this is a bullish ABC pullback or a 5 wave downtrend?  If it's a 5 wave downtrend, then it's going lower over time after a bounce.

    Otherwise, the 13/34 EMA's tend to trend well, for any major trend changes, the 13 EMA needs to cross up over the 34 EMA, that's why I think the first good bounce/rally will be sold because those MA's need to come together more over time.

    the 60 min chart sports a bull wedge of course.

    I want to go long

    I want to go long of this Matt but the only thing holding me back is that euro retail investors are still net short as of last Friday. I will do a further analysis tonight when COT Data is through

    Otherwise, its due some form of bounce for sure

    1.35 I think is the 50% fib of the recent peak and trough with 1.39 being the 61.8% level of the move so it will either turn at 1.35 or before.

    Very difficult one!

    vimal - EUO is still

    vimal - EUO is still in the downtrend wedge, it has yet to break out of it, the Dollar of course continues to sell off and so it EUO

    The reason I like it

    The reason I like it is its a currency play and slow mover.  I don't want to get heavy swing wise on Index stocks just yet.  Want the market to show its hand and scalp only trades right now or buy in PM and sell next day AM on pops etc.
