Hi folks! Sorry for the long down-time. My computer at home has died so, I’ve stopped trading and blogging for awhile and focus on other things in the meantime.
Then I saw that Elliott Wave International was providing a free webinar! And having been a supporter of EWI for a long time, let me tell you that this is very rare. Rare enough for me to be writing this post at work to let you know.
Here is the invitation!
Exclusive invitation for active FX traders
Our friends at Elliott Wave International have invited you to a free webinar with one of the most sought-after FX trading strategists in the world. OnWednesday, July 18 at 1 p.m. (Eastern time), learn how he called recent declines in the euro-dollar and see his 45-minute presentation titled "How to Trade the Top 5 Forex Opportunities Right Now."
Seating is limited to the first 1,000 active traders. Reserve your seat now.
At the time this email was sent, there were just 376 seats left.
Dear Trader,
On July 6, the EUR/USD fell to a new 2-year low.
The reason for the drop?
From a fundamental standpoint: nothing.
- There were no new devastating reports out of Europe to explain the euro's weakness.
- Nor good economic news from the U.S. to explain the dollar's strength.
- Nothing other than the "eurozone worries "…which, frankly, have been with us for what, two-plus years now?
In other words, market fundamentals failed to give FX traders a tell-tale signal that a drop to a new low was imminent.
At least one technical analyst did see the drop coming in his charts and alerted his readers to the move with enough time to act.
Update For: Wednesday/Thursday, July 4/5

EURUSD Last Price: 1.2605[Topping] The impulsive but incomplete decline from near 1.3500 and the corrective recovery during the first three weeks of June dictate a bearish outlook. From below 1.2744, and ideally below 1.2693, the euro should resume its decline.
