Looking for some short sign for the eur/cad. The 12h closed bearish pointing. It may run to 1.6130 support. It may be a buy with a sign in that area.
Its testing 15m R atm 6178. It may be attracted to -6145

This setup looked better than the eu earlier. It has also broken 15m R
The eu has a 30 min R and adr 1720ish. Lc attraction 1701 and the 12h pointing down.

It sucks it broke the 15m.. It engulfed. I just don't trust 1701. It would line up had it not broken the 15m + its too close to 1701 for me. It may not get to 720. But i would rather that setup.

I waited for 1720,, I was stopped.. The 12h does not seem to be working. 1743 should of had some affect.. Nothing so far. Its looking like a jail break unless it settles back.. I didn't think it would pass 1725.. I was wrong. ADR was at 1720 also. with 30m R.. If its making 1743 support.. Its a big deal.

Not much is going on. Being above 1743 would end me shorting if sustained. The 12h is right over 80% if its allowed to run away some first. It ran above 1743. The bull side. The 12h if early shows up when pa is away from LC. That wont/didn't happen today. It also can happen after LC. On the times it stalls, if may just may not be working. Other times it may work before the day closes.
Its on the bull side of 1743. No big wick rejected it.

not above 1743. Early week like last week 1617, this week 1693 was taken out after the week open, Both were bullish over those. They still need to sustain above 1743..
I don't have a number yet.. +1700 Asia 6h and 12h London I think will point up.. Those are below 1734.. So if unable to get below 1743. That don't look bearish.. its teetering in the 1743 area.. a possible gap just because its large.

I think that it could be significant
A week close above, next Friday ends a month.

I'm watching 1743.. Its Asia.. So take with a grain of salt. The day closed above 1743. I think as it stands. It don't run to 169x. to close the 12h. That would make things likely bullish. (remember today 12h missed). The 6h should point North for the 12h. Bullish is the easier path for the 12h. But hear me out. It may run to 1710ish. The 12h would still likely make +169x. I view 1743 as support. No harm no file if it can get under. If it would close a 15m or 2 below 1743. 1710 may get a run. It may be a place to consider a long.
A run close to 1709/10 may be a sweep
I may need to raise 1710 with time.

This next h close is a 6h close. I think the day close above 1743 was bullish. A 6h close below. Weakens that some, where it has the 1710 sweep chance rises some

in 18m if that close is below 1743. The chance to sweep 1710 is still there. Plus 1743 is a big number. Bulls need it to support. Bears have a tiny heartbeat below 1743. A 12h close below 1743 could deliver sub 1700

That close was a 12h -1743. The day closed above 1743. The week closed below atm. On the 4h I cant rule out an attraction to 167x.. 1h 1708. The 6 and 12h below yesterday
Since the 12h missed 1743. I don't think bears are dead. In fact that is an optimal place to repeal to run. Yesterday's close was opposite. Today it will close a new week.
One cant get too confident. This time next week closes a month.

Th 6h close above 1743. If it comes back. It may be a long area 1743/57. The support can be strong.
This week closing above 1743 is likely bullish. More so if next week (month) closes above.
