{quote} yeah, I"ve been trading pivots for close to 20 yrs. Know them extremely well. Just thought I'd add a little different perspective.
That's impressive! Glad to see a veteran here May I ask what's the longest trade you held that was waiting to hit missed pivot.
Thank you

Again to reiterate when I trade crosses I always look how majors are doing
AC is basically AU+UC
Difference is manifested on AC

UC looks like aiming to R38
AU same next is S38

Hence why the price is in limbo on AC

CJ has no wind to go north not yet and could drop to S38
might be worth going long at 84 what appears to be a range.

Look for EA to drop below 57 again its in a range
In my book Range situations are best for trading.Get in get out repeat.This is most feared by trend traders but I love range.To me its perfect to build positions

3 days. I don't just chase them willy nilly. Only when they're in the direction of the trend and a reasonable distance. (very calculated distance) Most recent was a daily missed pivot on U/J last week. OTM option was $20 per contract and payoff was $55. Better than 2:1 r:r fixed risk.

The stat ladder that guy posted was how long price took to come back to a missed pivot round trip from the time it was set which is not the same as intelligently using missed pivots as target opportunities.

Most daily missed pivots will usually hit the next day, in my experience.

month is getting to close so be careful.Lots of profit taking which means Euro bulls may jump ship and dribbling this to 22 by tomorrow
When this situations come up I focus on none usd pairs.Plenty of opportunities there
90 ADR Pair pushing 68pips in another day is very doable
