high atm is 1698ish... it's very bullish looking. but it's near 1711. beware if long, and it rolls below 1650 and 1635 today. that wouldn't end the bull necessarily. but may be a rejection retrace. atm level 1687.. its in the upper window for 0.93.. very close to the risk at 1711+
Thanks, I was long and adjusted my tp, else it would have missed by 2pips. I didn't take the 1711 short, st bulls indicate higher, I'm on the sidelines waiting for a bear setup.

I shorted @ 17045 and I think I am closing right now at 1658.
I will jump in again around 1680-85, depends on daily closes. I might miss the LL but I am studying for my final exam right now so dont wana keep my trade too long!
Nice entry Gator !

your green atm.. u may wait a 1/2 hour and see where it ends.. 1635 or 1650.. if below, give more bear room. on a scalp size trade, u may be in a good position..

it's just one scalp. so u should end up b/e or green. if it ends up below 1645 that wouldn't look bad for bears st. if its above it or 1650, it may be better to close. but keep in mind 1711 isn't a ordinary level.. it may get several rejections before any drop..

look it's a personal choice. if it rolls below 1635, i am more likely to look for a bigger run. especially if this week ends up below 1650. the run up to 17xx is 1200/1400 ish pips.. 1/2 of that would be what i would look for. just go back and read. it's already there.

the close was above 1650 and 1645. that leaves me to believe its not ready to move sub 1650 atm.. st it will probably bounce and maybe retest 1711.. so i closed short 1647. and went long.. tp 1678+.. s/i 1643.. reloading short after 1678

I think that even it drop lower low than 1625, there is still a chance to retrace up to 1650-55 area before dropping down further !
I will wait for short set up again around London open.
I should have held this trade.
110xx is on the way, could be !

since i didnt get the -1645 close,, to me it's bullish even st. today to me closed 1657, above yest 1645 and above week 1650.. still below 1711, but bullish. so to me the high at 1711 or near it will get a test.. 1/2 way is 1678. 1711 is a R, so i may fu here. but i respecte 1711 and the inability of bears not closing below 1945 today. tomorrow i will use 1650 since 1657 is close and above it.. the same with a 12h close.. later on

once 1657+ starts closing hrs today, 1657 it may be some support, with 1650 backing it.. atm 1657 may act as R, but it was a higher day close.. and it was above 1650, so i expect 1657 to be a smaller R and be broken and later support
