long 08968 looking for about 70 pips
It hit my entry area Friday. Asia pushed it back above 0913. The 12h closed above 0913. Europe retraced back below 0913 so far. I would like to see 0914 +. 0913 may resist/support.

I took the money, and run. If it retest 0827 area again. I will look for a L opening. Friday area 0897 was a buy to me. I dont like it stalling. My options was to chance it getting back above 0913, or stop me out at B.E. 0897. I may have done the wrong thing.
I see it hit 0914 while writing this.

I have mostly a near term bullish view, but it hit 099x. It was rejected. Now its above 0913. But Friday it closed a day week etc below 0913 and 0990. So earlier when the 12h closed above 0913. It helped the bullish view, but the week/day etc didnt agree. I figured it would retrace to 0897 last week. I dont know about 0827ish this week. But if it does. I will have a long setup at 0832/27 area to look for bear stall or bear weakness. Short wise the same as last week 0990/1010 area
I used to look for 0865 before a long. But have changed to 0897 or 0827. 0832 has a fib there. 0827 area has some confluence, but it may not get there.

At one time, I looked for 0865 minimal, and below (second choice). I will wait for 0827, but it may not make it.
First choice was 0897/87 area

there are 2 reasons i decided to get long

friday close is above 5sma on the daily 1st pullback has worked the lst 2 times

friday low was approximatly 80-85 pips below fridays vwap at the ny open. i got out of a very strong short squeeze intact on friday morning using thurs vwap as a target.

mid year at 0902, highest 2023 Q close at 0902, year at 0700. Bulls can hold 0902 and 0942x + for 2023 close/2024 open. Or bears can take -0921 0900 0700. No quarter close + 0942 since lost in 2022. This area has robbed a lot of people out of a lot of money. Just a range area on the larger chart. If the day cluster of (075x) 200 ema is taken for a year end close. It may be bearish. Here at the 0920 atm. Things directional are not settled. Big bears did have the 61.8 retrace earlier this year. Secondary needs to settle -0942. So it may still take -0700 to close this year.
Last q bulls got a reject. This Q ? 0942 or the 0750, 0700 year close would look bearish to me. If above 0942/0902 (2023 close) it may want to run higher. Bulls st may need to close today 0913+. Last weeks close was below 0902. I say bullish because of those 200 ema at 075x.. PA can always run back to those and still be above. Losing those after losing this year's high and 0942 0902. Plus those ema's may tilt pa to 0406.
Bulls did not hold 0993 last week. That is that q poc. There is a day one at 0813. 0813 supports atm.

Possible long may develop 0913.x/0909 (tight stop).

i'm going to give it 1 more day
3 inside bars next to that big bar would be too risky for me

I doubt it will close below 0792 tomorrow. But there is that outside chance. A flag here can make a test of 076x. 2X the pole.
Be mindful if -0913 runs hard
