EU Analysis:
MONTH- The candle is an above average spread (647pips) bear equal-bodied (same size of wicks) spinning top closing on very high vol<2weeks. This is absorption of selling. The candle close and volume suggests more upside.
WEEK- The candle is a below average spread (324pips) bull closing 1/2 off the high on low vol>2weeks. The candle close and volume suggests more downside.
DAY- The candle is a large spread (141pips) bear "reverse upthrust" closing on high vol>5days. The candle close and volume suggests more downside.
Background: The continuing Euro-Greek saga places a lot of questions on the future of the Eurozone as its leaders must now find a solution for Greece. Forcing the Greeks out of the Eurozone is not desirable whereas forgiving the debt may set an unsustainable precedent for the other indebted member countries who had already taken the austerity pill. This makes for a week of volatility as the market begins to find a direction.
The Oanda order book shows overwhelming net trapped short volume.
Potential Fresh demand: 1.0982-1.0973, 1.0924-1.0915

Short (stop) orders: 1.1117-1.1135, 1.1140-1.1150
More trapped shorts were taken out yesterday as SM plunged and then climbed. Prices have stayed pretty much in yesterday's range ahead of the FOMC minutes being released at 1900 hrs GMT today. The Oanda platform Net positions still show the bulk of traders trapped short and hardly any net long or short stops level. There is some supply from 1.1065-1.1120 and some demand at 1.0975 and 1.0925. SM is likely to induce buying to take stops at 1.1070 or higher before reversing.

Potential demand stacks: 1.5500-1.5490, 1.5359-1.5340, 1.5300-1.5345Potential supply stacks: 1.5692-1.5705

With long trapped stops and short trapped stops in position, From a logical vie, SM is likely to take out the weak longs (as there is more volume trapped long than short) before reversing. SM is likely to retest the current low 1.5412 or lower before reversing. Price dove as I was writing.... lol, it will likely test the next structure creek around 1.5350, re-analyze prior to FOMC release to look for possible levels.
GU long levels: must re-assess
