If I don't mention SL and/or TP = longer-term setup possibly in the works!

3rd TP hit (almost 0.08 of a pip) squeeze back down to 1.1835, If it holds going higher. If it doesn't we are looking at 1.1700 - 1.1650 respectively. Cancel the squeeze going to 1.1883 then a pull back.

Last good time to break through for the day ?
You can do it bulls ! just one last push to let me know you are serious and I can move more stops. If not here, I'll have to start fresh tomorrow.

Watching for exits or more entries around 1880, 1940, 1970, if momentum pursues. Holding on to at least one position beyond that. If a clean break above 1880 happens in this same momentum, would consider staying in for much longer with all but one position. Still moving nice. Wont worry about the widening spreads yeee! {image}
putting my alarms for the night...
Got a couple BE stopped, but a new couple reentries with the end of the pullback.
Could move my oldest SLs up.
Thank you for that move ohhh Great one
! Well worth the wait ! Calling it a night, cheers all, and happy trading !

Spectacularly massive success!! After reversing short close to the bottom and reaching -10% on equity, I reversed 1.178 and recovered it all. With 12% of account in play. 70+ PiPs move without retr. and +0.1% on balance. Interesting start to the week.17:24 Server Time. 1.1808 ...and I still wouldn't short this yet. I approached this session with a relaxed attitude thinking it'd be a semi-festive day without movement. That's how I got in deep trouble. It took a lot of emotional detachment to reverse long. 17:43 ST. Area 1.181 is now...
22:19 Server Time. The down trend, of course, is over. This isn't a shake out; it's a reversal, that took place.
Tomorrow and Thursday it should be possible to make money both ways, up and down.

Saw this last night and put some long orders to work in my swing account.
It was a good thing as look at the power of the candle today. I am still holding short in my long term account so I did not make much on this move, just on size as swing account was a little bigger but only beer money bigger not pay the mortgage bigger.
Not always easy to cash out and keep the beer money as timing is everything. Add a little, subtract a little, and repeat, to convert pips to cash. Never swing for the fences when hedged.

H4 Status Update
These are the levels for the next 6 hours or so.. Imho, 1.18835 is best area to look for shorting opportunities (with hopes that magnetic resistance will do its job)..

As long as 1.1856 acts supportive we might see attacks towards 1.1900.. If not, price is going back to retest 1.1833 area..

Not the reaction needed for this level! Im tightening stops already at 1888. Bad timing perhaps. Waiting for a strong enough drive for a continuous push to break clean through 1910.

{quote} For me today was like yesterday. Caught on the wrong side for wanting a deeper down move before the up and a great long entry. Fought it for a while adding to the short underwater. Then reversed, a bit haphazardly, today. Now sitting on +3% on equity. Looking to get out now 1.187x 22:19 Server Time. The down trend, of course, is over. This isn't a shake out; it's a reversal, that took place. Tomorrow and Thursday it should be possible to make money both ways, up and down.
15:23 Server Time. The long overrun now short 1.1882 let's see if it makes a nice down break. The whipsawing is getting to my nerves. Equity -4%.
15:43 ST. The down break is now looking not so likely. Long 1.1882
17:10 ST. Messed up today. Long 1.1886 Equity -7%
Out. Was never in today. Should have stopped sooner. -7%

there we go?! off a clean pullback finally ... one can never know till it happens, we can only wait and react as our experience has taught us.. I give it 3 tries max at this time of the day. now beyond 1910 or out again. beyond I could move some stops right above 1870
