I have studied price action for over a decade and I can't say I can make heads or tails of it, but I have tried. Lots of different teachers and such.

At the time you shorted, I could tell the bulls were weak. There was a decent 15 demand zone there and it was not pushing price up at all. But what would make you short there against the higher time frame uptrend?

I understand more so why you closed. I am not just sure what caused you to enter there. I guess you have a 5M FB that failed showing that sellers were still in charge.

{quote} hopefully scratching the ej helps the curve. I added EG long.. I have a long term long bias eur/gbp. I bought .9209 and will add on a fall. my positions are small so I can take some drawdown, adding if it falls further. I see some possible support .9205. H closes above should be bullish. up near 18%. I hope to have less loses to boost the win %. the circled didps were EJ.. for some reason I can't get insinch with EJ. {image}
eg up 50 atm.. closed some and still adding on retrace,

22%

I hope this isn't the "new normal" of every time a politician opens his mouth the market jumps in the opposite direction immediately.

Likely due to the uncertainty right now. Markets a bit too jittery. I got burned when the euro spiked up. I'm done for today. Should have stayed away until eu breaks out of the triangle.
