The Euro is in a position similar to the one in the Pound.

It just can't get any upside traction at all.

At least they've ground it back up to the recent intraday range top. Technically, it really 'should' break up now (very short-term intraday (yes, I know the RTH is over)).

ES rising nicely.

price has spent hours going basically nowhere

And that, rat, is what I think every day would be like if the manipulators disappeared. That is, once the ES reset to 'fair value', which in my estimation would be around 400. But, of course, that will never be allowed to happen, no matter what. And, once the dollar starts to really lose buying power the ES would likely rise in nominal terms even though the purchasing power of a 'share' would decline (the 'in real terms'). So, we'll never see 'fair value'. Bottom line, without manipulators, the bane (and savior) of my existence, this would be our fate day after day, in my opinion.

Now up in the very short-term? It hardly seems likely. But, it's set up for it...

Everything of significance I have for the very short-term is lower...

Okay, well, I guess that's it for me unless I find something else interesting to post. See ya, the one or two (or none) still reading this.
