@Shane: sure, that's all the truth and I've been through all of it in the past years. Then it all settled down and here I am with few lines on a chart, single fundamental view of a trend and sound moneymanagement :)
Keep it up.

the price action has only two directions either its going up or going down, and if you follow the law of probability even with no analysis you should be right 50% of the time if you choose your direction with eyes close. Any kind of analysis gives you two advantages firstly you increase your chances of success and adding more chances to the right choice and secondly giving you psychological courage to believe in yourself and stay with the trade.
Every one has his own style and this may not be applicable to all, It works for me though, i dont use MA, on small time frames. The only things i use are Support and resistance lines 200, 100 and 50 day MA.Plus following the long term trend and finally price action and a bit of candles.

I honestly don't know rrose. EW never worked for me. In fact almost any technical analysis never worked for me. That's why Im using simple trend lines as a support tool (a kind of reminders) and fundamentals as the basis for my trading. I tend to simplicity because Im very very lazy :)
If the latest leg up on the Euro is because of EW counting or because Geithner comments or because of some rumor buying ... i simply don't know. If I look at the EuroZone cacophony I simply can't go long :)
Absolutely no offense, we are different people with different views and different reasons for going long or short. If you don't mind, try to put up some chart with your EW view. Im always curious and open for new inspiration.

Although it did not come with a loss (rather a decent gain), I was wrong and am covering my short position. I am not saying that Greece and the rest of the EU are out of the woods, but I will not be betting against them at this point any longer (though I will be opportunistically watching!).

Do you see your count as an abc correction and this as 'c' , with news on greece bailout pulling euro back towards 1.37 and above.
