I go down in the lower units of time and I look again for a green arrow with retracement

my entry is on the mini retracement and on the support (red rectangle) because I thought that the upward movement would start quickly upwards
the price finally went down on the 2 nd support (red rectangle) and then went up.

My entry was too early indeed.

Have not been active on posts for some time.

1hr choppy but still showing lower highs and lower lows. This morning lots of upper wicks and the arrows down (3 bar reversal indi as per 1st post) showing lower closes compared to previous candle closes. 15 min reflecting that same general picture, any attempt to move up getting rejected. As London at that stage did not want to go up its more likely either going to chop or go down.

1 min LH just below the brown dotted line (days open per this broker) compared to this mornings previous highs around 1.3320 and 1.3304. Sold 5 lots (0.5 normal lot) 13296 and scaled in same amount on the following lower high 13258. Exited around the 30 Nov low just below the W M2 pivot blue line for total of 67 pips.

I missed the earlier trades busy with some other work. Uptrend continues, had a strong rejection above 13700 but the retrace was deep enough to give some room for a potentially profitable trade. Price came back down to the level of last move up. Good angle and separation on ma's. Buy 13683 exit 13720 for 37 pips.
I have to continue with other things so will keep half an eye on the charts but that sometimes causes more problems than its worth.

Had a trade that spiked up and hit my stop for -25. Re-entered 13415 when the spike failed to continue up. The big candles are often the end of a move and I exited 13665 for +50. Sold the next LH 13370 exited 13341 for +29.

Was otherwise engaged today so this is my only trade. The lower highs and lower lows continue so sold the retrace 13904 exited 13858 as we were approaching the lows from 12th and the 1hr body lows from 11th. Grabbed a few extra pips on a scale in. As I am lucky enough that this was a successful trade and I have to pop out now happy to exit with a total of 53 pips even though chances are its going lower.

Nice angle and separation on the ma's, price tested the lower end of the range around 14030, small bounce up created the lower high. Sold at 14030, scaled in on the next lower high 14010. Volume came in we bounced up so exited at 13975 for total 90 pips.

A friend of mine commented on how similar the pictures of the recent trades look. Yes that's exactly the point, good angle and separation on ma's, test of ranges (or break and test of range), small retraces to set up the higher low/lower high.

Mrs V's health has not been good and is going into hospital this morning I haven't done any trading in probably 5 or 6 weeks.

I have switched a little looking for good 15 min or 1 hr candle set ups then looking for the next 1 min hl/lh. The 15 min/1hr set ups could be hammers/shooting stars, engulfing, double tops/bottoms etc, test of range or break and test of range.

The links that no longer work were standard pics of 1 2 3 W/M patterns.

vitamin C megadose or MSM is very good for all aspect of body.
