{quote} thanks... no problem with loss.. part of trading...I know my ea doesn't do well in choppy market .. its more for trend trading.. .. I don't like that long I just got either..
2287 or more is better for the long. probably rejection if not. on the 00:30 close. i posted this earlier today.

likely a bullish b/o with the close 2287+
getting above 2289 would help..00:30 closing +2289 better for longs..
close above in 3 hours stronger.

it's already moved 80 pips since London.. at least it has retraced 50 since 2332. the 9 hour made a higher close.. the 12 is in 3 hours. the highest day at 2264.. it sucks it wasnt above 2289.. that rung for 3495//

st looks bullish.. it made a hh.. and a higher close... it retraced already to 2287 dipped below then closed above.. bulls won that battle..

one mistake I made this morning when at 2195.. I should close my short.for 50+. #1.. ADR already 85 that time.. also H4 trend only 18 running hours, H1 trend has high possibility to fail ..since it was against all higher time frames.

this next 00:30 has a chance to close higher.. as long as those close higher or lower.. that is the st trend. for the next to beat or fail.. you can use other tf too.. atm a 00:30 close above 2288 is indicative of bullish.. in line with main trend. the drawback is its already moved 80 pips.. i would feel better to get that close above 2289..1/2 hour to start, than 12h and day. baby steps on the day.. 2265 first..

Intraday, Kind of... {image} {quote} Sweet, I bought 2 pips higher than your short
It went as high as 2323, I wasn't around to manage it a bit.
So wait and see...

{quote} I think I have to stick with my plan! Stick with my pending short at 2377 Still looks bullish and risky for bears at this level! Long still looks safe for me but wont jump in right now hihi I like the way you holding your trade, I got greedy most of the time {quote} closed the trade(-3) and wait for pending at 2377 and 2107 2271 atm

placed a pending at 2332 risking 20...watching 2025,1948 and 1853 as probable maybe.
waiting to see if i would get picked.

maybe some new R being formed, but I'd like the support at 1.2197 to be dealt with first, even have the day close under there to start thinking about shorts...

Same here!
If 2197 breaks, Will think about short for 2021 (pending L there for 25ish)
That would be nice if it drop down to 216ish area then rally up to 221ish/222ish then trigger our shorts then hihi
I think we will have little fight at 2197 level or it might hold at that level for new H, never know
