{quote} still short, added a bit now with a tight stop at 1.1753 for the add. the short still on unless we start trending higher. next gov vote is on Friday/Weekend. so no NFP on Friday
R at 736 tested and now down down down. I am ok with my stop there.
Can we trade below 700 ?

changing the b/o to 1720.5 and 1760,, between may be ranging.. sustained out the range a b/o
Closing a 12h at + 1756, could be it setting up a b/o. I'm skeptical pa can go too for under 1754; ////i don't have a limit maybe 50/75 pips.. but it it falls.. it may spring back above 1755 and not look back. Sure 1788 1828 1865 could stop it, that may be enough to test 1755 as support.. A 12h close above 1749 may also be a bullish sign.. 1755 can resist.. But its more likely to support.. If its to drop, it needs to stay there..

4 mins to go under 4h close.
looks bullish to me especially bear can’t take 1720

update: bull is favoured now but really still within the range

The 12h did close above 1749. I think a bullish 6 month, 3 month 1 month wk day. Sustained above 1761 is probably a b/o

It has to break out 1760x.. If wanting to short.. the 1760/80 area may be the place. But don't hold it much past 1780..1788* does complete a small leg.. It could come back to 1755 after. But if a true b/o.. 1760 may support it with seeing 1755 this time again. 1828 or 1864 may be longer legs
If long from 1720ish.. See what happens.. It may be above 1.2 this time
The red wk was 1749x

There is a large tl above 1.20xx.. If it gets past it.. 1.2065 may stop it. It may be a potential top. Or a potential leg completion to get back to 1755 later.

This is the hard part.. how far can it wick below 1753.. I usually give it about 20 pips.

oops it was supposed to say 20 pips.. Most of my scalping ma's or in the 1730/40 area.
Pa is still in that 20/60 range. The 12h close favored the upper end. But that don't mean it will break out.. Being above 1749 does favor the pressing of the upper areas. 1755 can be R. but not like most R.. Its one when above can really launch it.

It never broke out the upper and was rejected to the lower range. If it can not b/o sustained below 1720..Exspect it to rise. most fail to sustain.

If it gets there + - 5 pips it will present a very nice short entry with only a tight stop

The same from below, bulls would nee to re-establish a footing above 1720.. because its sustained below. I personally think the pp is 1755. Or will be..
