The trend is still down and hasn't been violated. It's a pretty good R:R here in my opinion, especially the way PA has acted over the last 18 hours or so.

This doesn't have the feel of base forming here. It feels much more like consolidation before another leg lower, much like we saw while trying to break 1.2900 earlier this week.

We'll see, I've been wrong plenty before

Yep, I was hoping for 1.2920 overnight last night, but it didn't come close. Maybe I'm jumping the gun on this now because of it, but my TPs are generally quite large.

yeah i know you know what you're doing, i'm sure recent profits can comfortably accommodate a bit of a draw down on these shorts...

I don't really consider recent profits as proxy for allowing more or less drawdown. However, my R/R is still very reasonable and I'm not veering from my trade style.

We'll see how it plays out. I'd really like to pick up a little more EA, but bounces there are tough to grab.
