May actually be worth trading Pivotal Flame (as well). Usually pays off.

{quote} Well, you cannot deny they exist on higher time frames ... question is just if it suits you trading them, because it is easy to believe you cannot go wrong when you just trade the trend ...
food for thoughts :

since sunday open
E/U make 90 moves of at least 8 pips
for a total of 1442 pips for these 90 moves (average move is 16 pips ) interesting things is that this average of 16 pips is stable on daily basis since 2004
sunday night open price : 1.1457 / current price 1.1399 = 58 pips difference = 4% is trend 96% of the moves are noise ...

edit : the average of 16 pips is exactly the same whatever the market condition or volatility

Interesting. How about GBPUSD? Anything similar?
Buy low, sell high.

Sorry. Can you explain that? ''Since Sunday Open EU made 90 moves of at least 8 pips''. Measured against what? From every H1 Open? I feel I am missing something very easy here but my brain is stuck in horse-mode, or something!!!

Just play 1.e4. It is best by test.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

Speaking of EU, I nabbed a few on the baby-rebound from the Z-Line. It was a spectacularly weak Z-Line - with the 50-Level a good distance above probably proving a bigger draw - and so as price doggedly refused to break below the 23.6, I bailed on it.

its like zigzag of at least 8 pips
ie :

price 1.1450 to have new high price have to reach at least 1.1458... let imagine that price reach 1.1465 the new high will be 1.1465 instead of 1.1450 to get a new low price have to go down at least to 1.1457 ... price continue to go down to 1.1447 so 1.1447 is the new low ( high : 1.1465 low 1.1447 )

EU gave me the rebound off the 50 level. Didn't hold it long as it is now counter to my new bias.

Going to vote for Corbyn if it comes to it. Sure he's an out and out idiot but we'll get more fun days like yesterday. Be NFP everyday with Diane doing the economic data.

Mmmm...On Daily, price s below the 200 and 100 ma though only in last couple of days and hardly convincing. Plus you have a reasonably solid looking layered Demand Zone from around 8832 - 8809 with a buffer level above price at 8864 (so we are, in effect, inside the Demand Zone.

It may give a small bounce - up to maybe 8910? - but for me, if that turns it down again and we blow through this level of demand, then I'd see it getting to 8711 / 8680 / 8654.

I do agree though - definitely a day of lying in the long grass and picking off stragglers.
