Took GU for a 30 pip profit!! (Was a bit late but still a nice trade) {image}
nice trade, but your entry has nothing to do with 1-2-3 entry.
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!

Not traded by me today (no trading for me at all this week) but had a quick look at The DAX. Would have thrown up a nice Steady-Eddie short...

This shows how you could have added in to the position.

Now, the issue becomes, where do you exit, Lem, I hear you ask. If I drop to the lower time-frames (in this case, the m30), you will find a micro-S+D Zone right where you'd expect it to appear. At this point, I'd either exit completely, or move my stop up really, really, tight.

If you were so inclined, there were opportunities to add a few more bucks to the bag by playing the bounce / rebound between the small zones at the end there, just for laughs.

..... It is a good idea not to short when price is up and not to buy when price is down. ......
Very interesting. The first time I heard of this. And I checked it at once on USDJPY H1 candle chart of recent days, Nov and Dec 2017, seems it works well: long when price is above open, and short when price is below open.

I will keep monitoring this phenomenon.

Thanks
