Done for ASIA. Got some Long scalping. {image}
Coudnt trade asia I had to sleep for took short for Pre-London
So Here is my confluences for taking the short:
1. Price refused to break the supply area at 15 mins (OB)
2. the current reaction at that level produced a 1H closure with a wick within the range of previous candle close
3. 15 mins closed with a wick within the range of the previous candle.
4. 3 minutes produced a riverbank pattern

The above was sufficient to go for a short for 2R

Good that it worked out for you.
IMO, current PA is bullish, so shorting would be risky.

Since I used higher timeframe confluences I prefer to target 2R and if u see where my TP is it doesnt extend to change the trend.
I should have taken this long here but realised it was late when I I saw it

Incase a northbound Breakout happens, what would be a potential target?

~5260 looks too far to reach, considering the daily range.

i do not think that you have enough trading experience to handle large position size when market goes against you.
traders mainly look at today and analyse what is happening today.
my analysis started during the week end before this week begins. is it likely to go up or down this week?
is the daily aligning with the weekly direction? is the intraday aligning with the daily and weekly direction?
as you can see from the charts, all the support comes from the htf. there is only one direction for me.
