Welcome to
Yes I know it seems like urinalysis but in ways the purpose of this thread is to do more or less the Exact Same thing. The sole difference is that instead of urine, we are assessing the Euro from its major counterparts.
I encourage all participants to contribute what they know about the EUR/USD as well as any other Euro related currency pairs... and since everything is correlated nowadays, that pretty much includes all currency pairs, commodities and equity indices But the most important focus must be Euro crosses.
Before I begin with submitting my first post, I wish to lay down the ground rules of the thread. I have a few rules but they will be strictly enforced.
1. During busy market hours, please keep the talks strictly on issues directly related to trading the Euro and another instrument which influences (or is affected by) the Euro. This can be technical analysis of charts and indiors, Fundamental analysis of political and economic factors which directly or indirectly affect the Euro and related instruments, or any other info you wish to exchange with others which you feel will be of help in discovering general market sentiment or supplying trade ideas. Throughout off-market hours or periods, you are free to take part in any discussion which you feel that the thread participants would find of interest including humor and trivia. Just keep it clean please
2. If represent it as fact and you are going to make a statement, please back it up with definitive references. This could be a chart for a trade call or technical analysis, or even a link to a respectable news source or article for fundamental analysis.
3. Vulgarity, personal attacks, mocking, condescending opinions, lecturing, name calling or bullying of any sort for any reason will not be tolerated here. Generally the only acceptable posts are the ones which offer value and I could ascertain whether any such articles and that criteria meet with in my sole discretion. Clearly discussion is welcome and encouraged.
4. This thread isn't a sign service or even a trading college. Opinions and information are given publicly by the participants to get many motives. Should you notice that other posters are investing in a manner that does not match your own trading style, or you don't agree with the information they post, it isn't your place to criticize or attempt to re-edue them unless they've specifically asked you to do so. Everyone has a different style. It is fine to make ideas to the audience, however it isn't appropriate to method or poster in a condescending way. Since there are trading methods there are as language barriers and many personalities within this thread. As such you can't how your communiion may be translated. Therefore, when posting anything about trading methods state you believe others and how you do it should.
5. In the interest of security and privacy for everyone who posts here, divulging your funding equilibrium, profits or losses in any trading account is strongly discouraged. It isn't wise for one to do so on any people forums. If you would like to inform other traders your profits and losses booked to equilibrium, you may use aggregate regular pips (or even pipettes), or perhaps you express it as a percentage of your capital. The same applies to floating profits and losses... pips or percent of capital. This rule does not apply if you are investing in a demo account provided that you make that fact clear to others while posting your numbers.
6. This thread isn't private. Is observable by all users whether or not they are forexintuitive members. Furthermore, anything you post here will probably be indexed by search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing etc.. If you know the identity of another poster in this thread, you must not reveal it in a public post. Doing so is against very disrespectful towards the poster as well as the principles of the thread. It may also place the poster at risk of identity theft. In case you have a problem with any poster which ends in a conflict, you will bring it to my attention immediately. Failure to abide by this rule is cause for immediate temporary suspension from forexintuitive. A repeat offence can get you permanently banned.
7. According to the forexintuitive principles, any solicitation to/from posters, whether performed using personal message or via a post on the thread is illegal. Therefore, all articles must have no links to some sites in which you may have some interests. This includes. In addition you agree to abide by all the other regulations and rules of forexintuitive. It you are aware of any poster who's currently conducting any action that is commercial, please contact me via private message and I will look into the topic.
Any poster that violates any of the above mentioned rules, or dismisses any directions given by the thread starter moderator (that's me), may be instantly blocked without notice. It means you have gone too far, so it is time for you, if I've found reason to trouble you a fair warning. In extreme circumstances, I may even recommend to theforexintuitiveadminiors your account be suspended or permanently banned... Yes, I have that power and I will use it in my discretion
quantity of posters currently obstructed by me for rule violations: 18
quantity of obstructed posters currently suspended or permanently banned byforexintuitiveadminiors: two
That's it for today but I reserve the right to add more rules as I see fit. In case you have any suggestions to share about some rules which will help keep this thread tidy and resourceful for others, please don't hesitate to submit them.
Peace

SOME POSTING GUIDELINES:
I've noticed that in certain times, there was a debate about particular posts made by particular members wherein text from linked content was copied and pasted in line with the post. More specifically, the comments were directed at these members thus spamming the thread and making several articles in succession.
While I concur that any such consecutive posts look somewhat abusive, I can't agree that they don't fulfill the requirements or that they violate any current rules or guidelines within this thread.
But I want to point out in the interest of fairness to all, I would prefer to see less successive long postings from any 1 individual. Should you feel a need to make a long post, please allow some time to post their perspectives before making another post that is lengthy. The solution is to keep your posts or if you have much to say on a number of topics please include them all in 1 post.
I must stress that these are guidelines rather than rules.
I wish to encourage all to post their views as they see fit and if an external article or news item describes it better than they could, I find no harm in quoting excerpts from any such external links.
Yet another thing however, which I believe I've made clear in the past and can also be a rule.
During peak market hours, especially from Europe available to US near, I want to observe all of philosophical, speculative and historic talks kept to a minimum as this is the time for fundamental/technical analysis and transaction calls.
================================================== ======================================
DISCLAIMER:
Any transaction or analysis related comments made within this thread by myself or any other person should not be interpreted as anything other than a point of view by the respective poster. It is your responsibility for a trader to make a decision as to what advice to use and what to disregard and you do so at your own risk.

Before deciding to trade the foreign exchange (Forex) markets, you should carefully consider your own objectives, financial situation, needs and level of experience.
