It should break the 5 min EMA for you because the higher time frames have not reached theirs yet

This is a bit iffy for my tastes.

Is the EMA going to break the 3012 or are the bulls going to stop it.

It just passed the 50%

C is attacking A on the opposite side of the EMA so we have divergence forming the ABCD

Thanks Alan. I entered short noticing H1 and M5 bearish div. Target is 100% of ABCD for now.

Let's get back to this hedging business while we have this 5 min chart in progress.

Let's assume we managed to get five trades on going short but they are spread out somewhat. We need to get them bunched up so at the bottom where Huskyboy went long we place a hedge equal to all those short trades we had on.

Now when the hedge gets into profit and starts to move in our favour we can add a stop 1 pip above the hedge entry and then close all the shorts for whatever profit they made collectively.

Thus we have change direction safely and made a profit. Our hedge has grouped all the trades into one and is now paying dividends with all those collective lots. We can now close the hedge whenever we feel we have enough money.

Currently this has gone 70 pips and that would be multiplies by a heck of a lot size.

Move the stop to BE plus 1 because this may not make it back to the EMA and thus make a HH on the 5 min

You're right. I need to practice with hedges, I still have problems to manage them.
