{quote} I look at the possibility that it hits 1.1920 and that will be the high on its way around 1.1750 and then a pullback from there, good luck
yea hopefully - any retracement and I’ll close out of this position with less of a loss and that might be the difference in equity needed if we do visit the low 1.17’s

either way - I’ve learned from it and just got to own it and hope for the best / expect the worst and try to avoid being in this situation again

{quote} once low breaks you know where the price goes. We have discussed this many times. Any way take care.

I just keep selling and keep taking profit. Looking of taking profit on yesterday's evening short trade, wait for some pullback and look if there is a short opportunity again. It will bottom out eventually but it seems that there is still some downward movement left.

It might not reach 1.1920 but what i am convinced is we will see 1.1750 soon. I may be wrong

I’d take 11950 that would mean a 3k hit for me however it’s from what I made last week so it’s just back to square one

Ok indicators can help in reading a chart , to have an additional point of view.

But what I mean is that indicators and EAs cannot give you a clear sign of what could happen next, just like anything else of course.
You can see an increase in interest rates (for example) and the currency weakening 300pips instead of strengthening.
Or you can see a support/resistance and price not even caring 2 pips bounce on it.

Looking at your chart (just 4 example in what I mean about EAs and indicators)

The setup could suggest a buy opportunity near 1.20. Ok RSI pointing down but many times it keeps bouncing on that level to reach the top of indicator value.
Probably once stopped out on the position there is a short opportunity next.... but what if market starts bouncing in a 50-150pips range? That's the moment where a martingale will blow the account (unless strong conditioning on the code) and most of EAs will start a losing. Also of course most of traders (me included) will get losing positions because of wrong entries, mind changes, and so on

A good target in GBP USD is between 1.680 and 1.720 I am targeting there atm. Will cut my position in case of signs of reversal. Example: price shooting back above 1.193 also have 1/3 position targeting 1.1270 and a scalp targeting 1.1840 {image}
1.1840 target met

if there is no closed bar, it will not say anything

  1. RSI is relative strength index [ means current price relative to 14th closed candle in history ]
  2. moving averages [ trend indicators ] show price RELATIVE to the average price
  3. the current candle is RELATIVELY lower than the previous candle, so trend is down.

so on chart EVERY indicator follows theory of relativity

The way I read a chart:

Click to Enlarge Name: Chart_GBP_USD_Hourly_snapshot.png Size: 15 KB


1. previous low: short opportunity (20 to 40pips SL). I was short there, stopped out @ BE because price reversed.
2. Price could keep rising. I wait if goes to 1.21 - 1.2140
?. Price fell. I bought near that low 1.1970 or so.
3. Targeted scalp near 1.2020
3. Short on previous high 30pips stop loss. tg 1 previous low 1.1870 then let's see.
4. Previous low broken. Short near 1.19 (still running)
