Peter Bain Forex Trading Commentary for Thursday August 24, 2006

Forexmentor.com Forex Trading Price Action

Yesterday, I talked about the role the 200 EMA played on the 15 minute chart, wherein price tested it twice after the London open to no avail. That's why the 200 EMA years ago was voted the best and most reliable indicator out of the 99 available to traders.

Today is no exception. After the London open, price spiked north, way beyond the 200 EMA, but I saw that move as really bucking the trend reflected by the 200 EMA - yet another opportunity to sell the rallies in the downtrend. I still see the euro tanking to the 2480 level, give or take, in the near term. But, if you take a look at the higher level charts, that's not all that extreme in the grander scheme of things. You will see what I mean if you check out the weekly chart. Anyways, just my two cents, as the summer doldrums continue to test our patience.
