{quote} LC is 420. Breakout is above 422.. So when sustained above 422. It may test 457. 420/422 is a R unti, it may be a soft R. PS if i had held the short. it would of tp 1.4001 {quote}{image}
lets see if it breaks out above 422, to 457/62. Then falls back to 420 once more. On the down side 363 has some dynamic support.
When talking about the middle.. Yesterday it was 401.. Today its 420. I dont like to trade my entry in this area.. I like to trade toward it +- 40 or more pips.Some pairs more. some pairs less. A good 50 to 80 pips it best, with time on the clock.
In todays case pa is stuck near 420.. Distorting close levels just running through them. 0403 and 046.6 w/o any respect

I got 16 pending trades on various pairs.. Over night none hit. That's not normal. They are all stuck in the middle.

ADR looks to be on those pairs only 33% of normal atm. So we may see a breakout to get the other 2/3 today, or nothing more

my trade is the high area 0457/62 holding, with a fall back below 0400. If it can get past the R b/o above 0422.. Then the 0457ish R would need to hold. Its got adr to help. a over extended week. If not i can buy 363 tp 97, or 345ish tp 97

The 12h did close above 0406.. The following 6h back below. 0400.. Its not a clear picture.. Conflict...The day, and the 12h are on the same page. To run North. To me it has to close a 12h above 462... If not, its still in the 12h downtrend... along with the time frames larger than the 12h. The day sits at 0628.. That fib pp at 0610. But if it can't break 462 sustained, it won't make it.

As a general rule that dont always work. I use the sentiment. Most b/o attempts fail a few times. I'm betting with measured risk it does this time. And falls back.. With news catalist tomorrow it may get it over the top. Or it could do something else.. The train stays on the same track. It runs North and South. Sometimes it goes nowhere.
I got my ticket in hand for either direction. If and when it gets to my stop. Between stops and FOMO will rob you blind.

The gbp is on the bull side of 2356.. i need it back below 2356.. Its a b/o level for bulls.. But it hit R. If not, it would had moved higher. It may still go higher. I bet on 2323 pulling it down. After reaching that week range and a Resistance. I may be wrong about my trade. But I know 2356 is in the way. Tp hit is 8X for me

eu 422 and gu 2356 can support. I'm betting the dont this time. Now you know what I know. The wk is an average. The eu has gone above that average. The gu some too.. But maybe it will hold this week enough to play off its R's a little above. Making the risk less to short off them. Tomorrow or next week may blow through them
