LONG-TERM EURUSD SHORT @1.1340

Short
FX:EURUSD   Euro / U.S. Dollar
I really do not care what the FOMC minutes read or what NFP data is or what Greece are doing.

I look for where institutions are buying or selling. I do not care why they are doing so. I just want to know where. Then I go with them.

Price action lets you know that. As you can see from the yellow areas, it is pretty effective.

So, rather than draw trend lines and extensions, I stick to price. I look to buy low and sell high (relatively, of course).

Everyone wants to predict what price will do from now. I just know what I will do if and when price gets to predetermined levels.

But no one is perfect. So my risk is never greater than 3% of my account.

Anyway, 1.1340 is the bottom end of a weekly supply area with daily supply inside it.

Stop: 1.1400 (60 pips, 3% max, gotta protect myself if I am wrong)
