When price b/o it often retest the b/o point, before proceeding in the b/o direction. That was the thesis to look for a short in the 1729/36 area. It don't always work.
Since the b/o to me was 1729 or 1736. It was support. Meaning when it returned, it may resist and be a potential short.

I like to see strong rejections too. I know sometimes price will reach a point with no real noticeable rection. Just walking up to a line and stopping, but not running from it until a later time. This area can go either way. I think both have done their job here at 1729. In the process it may be balanced in this area. Closing below 1729, I think favors 1634.5. After that it may be right back here again. Or 1540

Pa is more neutural/bullish to me now as we don’t see much of a bear actions. Let see if bear can defend 1729 at the time of daily close.

1557 unlikely.

i think the fundamental outlook may not support 1.03 unless we see a u turn in many things…

govt shutdown, fed independence, concern of a slowing employment/economy in the US, further rate cuts, etcs are all favouring a weak dollars.

Breaking a significant rising trendline last week is massive! I still think bear may take us a bit lower but there are too much headwinds

Today did close below 1729.. To improve my odds. I would like to see the 12h close below 1680. -1729 is an improvement

same here. 1610-40 levels i will start building some longs

i m not sure if we can get there despite closing the day bekow 1730 but bear is weak for now.

will need pa below 1722 1700 maybe pre London to trigger a drop. But we may see a bounce in NY session to close the month back near 1730

{quote} Its not looking like a fall atm. It tested 1729. So far its held. It may be a little sneaky, and not too noticeable. PA is still close to it at 1729 atm. If it lost footing it may mean something.. 1723/24 could form some r.. I dont know.. {image}
Back below 1729 with some closes below 1723
sustained below 1717 may be a real b/o..

unless iy falls back below 1729 to close this next h.... This is likely a bullish b/o
Back below 1729 and 1717 on this h close a likely rejection

Looking for some longs off bullish triggers to 1865.. tp probably 1864
1828 could be a closer tp. 1731 was a b/o point. Near it or 1730 LC may be a better entry.. Since it bullish.. its less likely to go below 1731.too far, It may not retrace to 1730

Its now back in this area 1730 area.. To be bullish it shouldn't go much deeper. If it continues to fall below 1717, I may have read this wrong.
Anyway I went long.
1864 or 1828 I likely will want 1865 and more later
