i wouldn't be suprise if we'll play scenario which i marked in chart below: Triangle on H4 ( my crucial area is in 1.1260-75 where some wicks can arrive, little belowe Ata level), which i'm trading now. That is on higher timeframe, so i trade it like triangle of bias continuation after break in south direction. {image} Best regards for All!

Ok, as i thought yesterday we had wicks over triangle on H4, but now time to turn in South direction.

I now short with small SL at 1.1285.

Have a nice day ( I'm today on journey, so not visit a lot of FF:/ )

{quote} Currently sharing the same feeling, my original plan was to short it aggressively but that changed quickly into buying and still holding. closed partially at 1.1200 then at 1.1240 and 1.1265 with still 1/4 position open for if we see 1.13. If I see the chart, one touch retest of 1.1185 and then 1.1222 and continue to the upside. Now first small reaction from the structure above at 1.1265 while volume is increasing and still trading comfortably above 1.1250.

Very interesting ! Wow, there is a first time for everything.. not often this happens to me, so just love how we traded in parallel in more ways that I would have thought! I could have written almost the exact same things, at least your first part and last part, although in an awful mess, as usual. And you got in much earlier than me, while I was still holding on to the last portions of shorts that I had accumulated. And now I am holding on to more (a bit more than half) a bit longer in case something bigger is in the works. But I see you changed your plan really fast as you observed a change, which I find was very nice adaptation. Not easy to develop. At least it wasnt for me, so a big for letting go of your plan, maybe a long planned plan, and making a new one, and acting on it without hesitation, switching gears when need be, not letting your past efforts affect your current judgement.

My own trading changed greatly and for the better when I managed to make a reflex out of letting go, adapting, switching gears... Hard work, but well worth it.

And like you, I am not sure anymore where eurusd is going But have to continue just follow blindly my rules, no matter what.

Ok, price moving again. Tightening my short's SL at 1270.

Cheers Lyn101 !

Hi mate, I see you are quoting my post but, unfortunately, I don't understand your message. Please rephrase, if possible and still needed.
Maybe you were asking for something in particular? Because my post was short and sweet and clear, in my opinion.
Mmm really tried understanding your inquiry, and failed again. Don't hesitate to ask in a different way and I'll do my best again to understand.

Thanks a lot and I sure hope you are right!
Yes, sometimes the stars align themselves quite nicely.

I'll wait to see if we can get another 30min close with rsi>75 to close a position. But after that I would need at least a 1H decent bodied bear candle low to get hit before closing more... Unless it goes crazy again and goes straight to 1320. I have a set TP and sell limit at 1320, weekly sweet spot to check for main reentry for longerterm shorts. Doubt we'll get there though. Other factors will probably get me out of most my longs before.

I hope you get your 1295! I love close all moments !

They are going to retr. it down from higher up to avoid compromising the up scenario. We are heading back to the low of the past few hours range before resuming the up.

...They do it also so that I can drop my short hedge in profit and get my net long going again. They are so polite and considerate. I love those guys.
Temperance (restraint in action, thought or feeling) is a virtue.

Thanks mtako, appreciate it bro. It only took me blowing 1 account, doubling my second account while getting over confidence to then losing 98.5% due to the overconfidence and with a lot of reflecting eventually turning the 1.5% which was left back into the amount I started the account with. After that complete emotional roller coaster ride and almost quitting and really almost quitting... It came down to if I blew my second account I would only focus on my business and forget about trading. While I am still aware that blowing up my account can still happen with 1 bad decision and over leveraging, therefore I try to think risk before profits.

Luckily I am still trading and enjoying the process. What I usually do is plan both bears and bulls scenario as I think most people do, while still I have my directional preference I will try to not marry that decision immediately and try to understand the market structure. A huge turning point for me was learning and understanding about the Wyckoff method as I used to struggle really hard with distribution and accumulation areas (these where the periods where I endured the most drawdowns). Now I appreciate these areas, because I know if I am patient enough it will reveal it's intention and there will be enough profits available which reduces my fear of missing out (Some times still a struggle ).

Currently waiting to see if it will reach 1.1290+ area, think it will drop from there 40 to 65 pips. Do not pin me on it, just my expectation based on the current move.

Cheers mtako!

If No M15 candle close below the blue level, I expect a new daily high with a Target on the H1 chart that I posted before.
