Absent any news on Greece I think euro will open near or slightly higher than today's close. I would think no news is unlikely and any news is more likely to be euro negative, so open much lower than today's close.

Either way, I'm not a weekend gambler! All flat here.

'til then...

Gap up, followed by a plummet.

This Greek sh-t has been going on for a couple of months now, and they still haven't received a penny (pfennig??). There's another meeting this weekend, I reckon they'll announce something juicy and there will be a HUGE gap higher. Having said that, I'm short. Who the f-ck knows..

Long gold is the hedge for everything right now, forget eur/usd, it's been in a range since mid feb.. commodities move more in an hour than eur/usd does in a month.
