new possibility: increasing triangle? {image}
Yes, this zig-zag pattern on M5 has recently meant the price then shoots up (from a dip) by quite some. I am now staying on the sidelines, but like I said, I would go long from here to hunt 20 to 30 pips if I had to decide.

stuck in the middle! Range is ripe for an end on my end. Bought at 1893 ! And Ill be reversing at 1885. The steadily growth of the range and volatility of the last 2 hours allows for 2 tries max, on my end. If fails both, back to scalping the range as long as its stays between 1900- 1850 levels It could really go both ways at this point.

Close call ! Power has significantly gone down, ranging is pursuing,

or its the calm before the storm.

Lets hope its the latter !

Getting out in 30 minutes if 1897 not reached, 1h15 if its not staying above 1900. Not worth more time when in a range.

cheers all !

-7 -8 and gone back to scalping the range. Selling top and buying the bottom.

Its Whipsaw time

Going back in for more than range trades when volatility stabilizes in growth again and average range growth last more time than a pity half an hour !

Now we are nearly in the peak of the rising triangle, expect breakout soon, higher probability to the upside.
Another day, another dollar.

Based on H1, 1.1897 is crucial.. If current H1 candle closes above it I expect more bull power to join the move.. (7 more minutes until candle close)

Edit: No candle close above therefore: sell!

Love these tense levels !

Im selling for 5 at the moment... got 3 pips to go!

Buying back in the 1880-90 area if the right reaction happens of course, and if we ever get back there.

Hope the range is dying because later there wont be much to get out of any direction...

Lol.. Yeah with current bull weakness I am inclined towards selling as well.. But it is a dull Friday with a flat GREEN line on my chart.. Causes mostly boredom.. (On a side note: 1.1901 is my daily pivot and currently acting resistant)

To long or not to long? That is not the question.
The question is where to long at. My answer is 1.187x

I wont go for more than 4-6 pips in this new situation, both ways. Perhaps stay in my longs with BE.

ahhh today s beloved level to buy

waiting for it to play around -1881-83 and bouncing back up the right way above 18844

Or perhaps, at the very least, get a confirmation that the range is really being raised a little, and plan accordingly



limiting my posts, apologies to those I have bothered

{quote} Didn't update yesterday but because of the time and how price was acting, I didn't expect a full on reversal or a full continuation. Because I expected a range, I moved my stop down to 1.1830 since my 2nd horizontal level where I'd buy was 1.1838 (represented by my arrow) where I had another entry order, even though I didn't think we'd hit it. I'd rather not have my stop get triggered during a range and am playing for the long term bull move I've been expecting since 1.172 As of right now, the first support of mine seems to be holding, we...
Still long, wanted to TP at 1.1933 (previous support as resistance) and enter long lower, but seems like we may potentially have our pullback now. If we do drop, my hard stop is at 1.187 and will look to re-enter long at 1.18386. Otherwise, it's Friday and unless we get a big drop soon, we can simply range up for the rest of the day.

NOW got my buy stop at 1884 ready,

just beware bulls and bears. wouldnt sell bottoms and buy tops unless its for tight scalps.

Waiting for above 1900 or 1850 levels for anything else than range entries and scalps. Not worth more of a day.

lost only 1 of my yesterdays longs at BE just now. Am satisfied with the outcome.

Cheers all and happy trading !

Cut my trade at 1.1875 with +150 pips, long term bias is still long but the pullback I was expecting seems to be happening now. If we get a retracement up to 1.18865, I will short. 1.18386 is the level which I expect us to move up extremely quickly and where I'd buy, any lower than that then my long term bull bias will change. If we manage to hit 1.18386 today, I'm expecting us to break the previous high today with a move up to 1.20061 sometime next week. If we don't hit my level in the next 1-2 hours, I think we'll just slowly dwindle down to the 1.185 area because I expect a massive impulsive move once we hit 1.18386

In hindsight on the 4H, when 1.191 broke after just barely hovering above the horizontal line, that's when I should've taken profit long and I was expecting price to either range above there today or drop, so I should've just took profit to minimize risk since there's no real reward in me holding (I need to work on taking profit in areas where price may consolidate). This 4H/1H close beneath my level is the sign for at least a pullback for me (could be a trend change), and am looking for short entries now.

If 1.18386 does not hold, My long term bias will change to short.

Order entries at:
1.18396 long (+1 pip from my level) 10 pip sl
1.18855 short (-1 pip from my level) 10 pip sl

Saw this last night and put some long orders to work in my swing account. {image} 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.
Cashed out some longs in the swing trade, holding about half size now. Gotta convert pips to cash.

Added some shorts in my scalp accounts but these will be covered before EOD.
