{quote} for longs if L can close 1794+ is bullish to me.. but the following week closes a month.. the month could erase the week.. its still inside, but a month close 184x to me is bullish.. today being a Friday, week and a day.. a L close above 1846 is bullish week and day to me. it bothers me that last month was a lower close (bearish). so the bullish week could get rejected. possibly after 1880..

even 1911 is close enough to get tagged on a spike, and close below 1846....

UJ looks crapish, and I got not S near by really...

CHF sitting on important support, but flagging....so...

I will try a tiny long here, will add up more but sl no lower than 1833. Hope to see full bull weekly candle or at least above 1880
I should have kept my long from 1738


193ish/204ish are coming !

Back to bed !

Higher month/week/day
Too risky for short!(short scalp is fine but I better long scalp)
I better stay away until 19ish/20ish 1880 atm

not trading atm.. nothing for me atm till 1706 ish or near 2092.. week closes below bullish.. Q still bullish .. its above the last month close.. depending on today's L roll. some scalps around 1930 and/or 1940, nothing bearish about whats going on atm.. watching 1930 and 40.. i got stopped twice.. so i tend to shy away from over-trading.

yeah..stops going above 1930 for me atm..nothing on my chart outside of adr says it needs to stop before 1960/2092 with the break it made above 1884/1905

Edited..moving stop above 1946..see if some of these previous week closes provides any R

still bullish. Got small long and still holding! Will close half at 1788(50 pips) and the rest at 1933 1750 atm I could be wrong with the signal from my chart, so keep your short if you think it works out! 1723 long was SO(got 50 pips profit with half position closed at 1773 already) {quote} {image}
What made me got out too early. Broke my plan!
That was what chart indicator telling me !

this is brutal for shorts,, 95 adr already with thin liquidity, I still hold my positions against my system, against the trend.

This proves to me once again... manual trades don't work for me. after all theses are settle, I will go back to my automatic trading.

Since price cannot keep rising forever, there are limits per period, 1930 is probably top for now.. due to dollar index just hit 92.73 at the support 92.70/92.75

going for a run...need L to close below 1905 for me to think pullback beyond 1757 is possible

it may mean nothing.. 1940 and 1930 some R possible on my chart. 1935 the higher L day close... for what its worth. it may take a couple of tries to get past. the week w/o any change is bullish.. once it closes bullish it will remain bullish even it retraced some. the 1930/40 +- a few may be R to allow some retrace. L closes in 1 h.. it will be bullish.. maybe it will test 1935 after L close and fail some for a little retrace.. L day bulls need to get that 1935+ close to proceed .. or it should reject some..

u have to set the hard stops ahead of time. if u do it ahead of time.. u have less emotion. its black or white. you either wrong or right.

true, thanks, I didn't put hard stops because I trade small positions at different levels....I didn't over leverage my trades.. ...so the loss is from mini to bearable...of course even this conservative method bite me today....
Going forward.. for me ..I need to go back to automatic trading .... leave human emotion completely out of this..
