I made an amateur mistake today. I bought 1.1365 and chickened out early. Oh me! Well, to compensate for my error I shorted madness out of EU's twin USDCHF (when it got to the top I knew EU's bottom was in -- at least temporarily). Let's see if Powell will give us more joy.

Happy pippin'

Got shorty at 1.1292. .1 lot. I will be adding .1 lot every about 1/2 cent down or every 1 cent up. Stop and t/p are the same 3 events. Expectation change for a rate cut by FOMC, or expectation for a rate hike by ECB, or some time in May TBD. This is not a scalp but in my long term account. I may scalp LONG or SHORT in my retail account to play the bucket shops into my direction[they are dealing desk and take the other side of my trade] or if I see a nice scalp setup.
Why are you going short after 6 daily candles down? Looks like you are selling the bottom?

Experience! Look at the chart I posted below.

The arrow at the 10:00am candle shows the London movers driving price hard down. This move was to hits buy stops so they can begin accumulating to the long side. To buy, they need someone selling [or to stop out longs does not matter] so they painted the market short. Then notice after the drive, every candle is bullish even the bear candle is a hammer.

This is typical market action. I have no idea where the market will turn down again but I know this pattern. Watch for similar action tomorrow during London as confirmation, a big push down followed by immediate buying.

I am watching 1.1345 for possible add .1 and 1.1395 short entry already in place. Stops are fundamentals and/or time based. I expect a small slow steady accumulation.

Edit - I do have price target from the gap after the French elections down in the 1.0720 area but don't think that is likely to hit before my May 2019 time target.

That last red big candle was last attempt to try to knock out all the traders that went bullish earlier, so market makers were knocking them out and taking profit. This is bullish.
