{quote} its normal for me to be against the crowd. i get burned sometimes. its part of trading. its also normal to see 1964 again b4 1580. i said the closes below 1734 1826 were bearish.. i also said the day didnt close below 1704.. a mixed bag.. but its also normal to retrace the previous candle. and another normal thing is to go back to 1.2166.. so i dont mind being against the crowd so much. i have stops set.
90% of the crowd loses money. Can't be all bad to hop on your own train..

Looking at the daily chart, unless it breaks above 9/29 high @ 1.1833. this favors downside ... I will keep my shorts until it proves me otherwise..

above 1724. at 1738.8.. bull side on Lday,, also above 1735. bullish to me.. FOMC meeting released wednesday. that could stifle adr till wednesday.

st needs a HH today to target 1775/76 or more.. adr probably 1814/1818... if it gets the HH, b4 1875. it may allow a 1732 /1718 entry. 1724 is a support... and now 1738.8.. its common to retrace some of the 1718/38.8 candle. its not written in stone..if so, 1732 may be the place to look hard at a long, or a short tp, allowing for spread.

yes sure...strong hands does not loose anything to delay the action or go opposite side a few hundred pips till they get what they want. Even when one person get huge position tilll close or hegde they delay the move or drive a little opposite side. even in correlated pairs as math it should be 10-20 pips other side but they do not let.

some may get a chance.. got the hh now, still under 1775, typo change 1875 to 1785. so u may get the 1732 entry now.. basically if u weren't in, you may get a new shot later at 1732 area. it's not written in stone.

i had closed some earlier. looking to catch a wick touching 1733.4 (raised/tweaked from 1732). i have a pending 1735 Long to allow for spread.

the 6h did roll above 1738.8.. at 1741, so its still bullish to me. i expect a bounce 1733/1719.. on st chart only.. next 12h i would want 1741+ close
