No news that I can see ha wondering what that spike was. Would it be a big manual buy order fat fingering?
It's the last day of the month, and we're around the start of NY session, so expect things like that. Big GDP miss for US (arguable somewhat expected though) will bring extra volatility.

It looks like that person with the size of the wick if it was all one order, I guess haha can't see the volume. But looks like they are buying from about 1.137, they picked urgent because that is what spiked it (large market order killed the liquidity and "walked the book" up - instead of working in buys on limit orders over time). But yeah is hard to tell/cannot fully tell (esp. if just one person).

Looks like liquidity was really desired at ~1.135, that was a vote on it going "up" since it was done with urgency. But time will tell...

Woohoo! Worked out as planned. Nice when this happens and makes up for the unexpected failures. Coved shorts, no positions now. Off on holiday now. Be back in the office on Friday for NFP.

Happy trades to you,

If the price reaches 1.1335, I will move the sl on the remaining position to 1.1370; otherwise, I will keep my fingers still.

Did you catch it for 15 or 20 pips?

You will get another chance... just wait for it!

Broke the 1HR trendline here, going to wait and see if just clearing out SL and reverse up, or continue down, will wait on the 1HR candle close.

Moved sl to 1.137

Keep going bears

Edit: closed 1/4 @ 1.1335
Remaining 1/4 from 1.1389 with sl now @ 1.137


Edit2: adjusting remaining 1/4 SL back again to almost BE @ 1.1392 / reminder to myself maybe a leak

I'm going out on a limb to say third strike off that line drops for a couple hundred. You gotta prime the selling conditions by overbuying before the drop.

Meanwhile, on H1...

No surprise for me... Bears had the upper hand since candles started closing below 1.1409... Once the blue zone was broken the roads opened for bears...

Therefore: Go bears go
