Will let this 1 hour / 4 hour candle close. If it moves up higher (expected) I’ll be looking to add back into shorts

It seems to me a bull trap with the test of the top. I'm short with TP at 1.1726 and STP 1.1910 {image}
This call is still valid.

added more long 1.1827

Spike down filled more EA. Closed out at 6415-16. These made my day . Loaded 4 times today. Around 30-35 pips first couple of rounds. 15-20 pips last two times. The wick on spike candle went right through my biggest two pendings 1.6387 & 86 this time without filling them. I'll just wait for it to drop again.

Options have been deception over last 10-14 days I noted. probably work in ranging market not in trend ?

Grrr, frustrating. Didn’t even get high enough to add back into shorts.

Holding from 1.1892 next target is 1.1680-85

Amazing 1773 WPP hit and the week may reverse.
Try some buy here but will kill if it goes lower 1760.

EU long 1783 1774 1773 1772. Probably not a good idea but will see how it plays out.

I chickened out for 5 pips on long. But I have a pending short 1834/40 atm. Just in case. A red week may give a little retrace for the entry.

Put a pending buy at 1755. I hate pendings but just have to do this one. Missed the drop, caught a huge chunk from gold.

boulder's 4h at 1757... another 4h support 1720/30 ish,, ADR spent. more 4h support 1695/1705
good move I closed.. I would have been stopped for -10.. pa below 1772 and 82 is bearish to me 4 close. boulder's 1757 has run for 5-6 weeks.. losing 1766 week is probably not bullish. Rejection off the month 200 could be real

below 1757 or above 1782 next 4h directs me. 1720/30 or 1834 coming. 1757/82 are being tested atm. Sometimes what looks good drops the baton.
