In this case I brought my SL to BE because news is coming up and just looking for it to move down to go to a 10 and then a 20 trailer if it moves. If it stops then I go back to square one. Sometimes I do not move the stop to BE. Why, no particular reason. I used to take 80% off and never move the stop. Here's the , experiment and see what fits your style best.

Same, EG short +20, GU long +37.

Both came REALLY close to SL at one point

And the blink of an eye my EG is +30 20 trailer on. I was also in long over on HOLO, on the GU and it went from +2 to +40 in 5 seconds. Triggered by some off the cuff remark by Barnier. Got to love it when you happen to be on the right side of those remarks, and hate it when your on the other side of it.

Initially I thought the word had gotten out that hal7 was short the EG, but no it was this guy making a comment. Whoever he is.

How it can end up looking when you wait, and are lucky.

Great work! Now the next question would be. Come the Hour mark, this bar closes exactly where it is now huge 1hour bearish bar and maybe only retraces a few pips. It makes a new low obviously. Would you then enter on the next bar once price comes up to its opening price? I sort of raised this possibility during one of my earlier posts but no one seemed to answer it

No I would probably just call it a day at this point and go back to bed.
