sure seems like another run down is coming. unfortunately that 1753 spike and subsequent 1750 spike took all my gains for the week. as such, i'm done until next week and will re-evaluate. as usual, I got overconfident in my analysis and bit me in the a** again.

It might retest 175ish!
Hope it wont !

Down trend and LL still there!
Short against 1755. I think best entry would be around 176ish/177ish
1736 atm

1773 would be the top today, I dont know but we could short from there with 2-3 pips stops
1760 atm


good luck!

the 12 h closed below 1741. this atm spike looks bullish. but it probably needs to close above 1755.. its probably bearish below it or 1732. the 6h (Lday)close after this one is the most important one. on week 1793 is important. it probably will go back to 1732 if 6h closes -1741 maybe more.

It is hard to break 1775(15 pips lower than the previous H) I think Gator!
The down trend is still, every it on top would get strong pull back!
I think today would be closed around 173ish-175ish
And 1775 would be top, I will short with either higher price than 1790 to 175ish if it breaks.

I am not sure but that is what I guess.
Short with SL just right above 1790 is good choice for me!

We need Gator review on this!
I said what I see on my chart!
It needs to break DPP 1724 to turn bearish, otherwise, ranging between 1724-1790
I could be wrong!
