Forex Signals - Monday Consolidation

By IBTimes Staff Reporter | July 09 2012 4:14 AM

Recap: Our short from Friday, a day we don't normally trade, quickly hit all targets for 80 pips profit. The price began to drop like a rock literally minutes after we posted our analysis and never looked back - until now.

Since opening the weekend the price has begun to peel back in a bearish consolidation pattern and while many of us are tempted to buy the dip this pair still has plenty of room to drop. It is always harder to call a bottom than to ride the trend! Two quotes come to mind in these types of situations:

Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. - generally attributed to Keynes.

In forex, what goes up does not have to come back down, and what goes down does not have to come back up.
