I personally have two different feeds that I pay for and they are close to one another in price, usually 2 pips. The difference is in the spread usually.

four hour is about to close but not near the lows. The tail on the four hour needs to be tested for me at this point. Im not going to enter. Although I still think it could just go up from here.


I don't like to say i told you so, but I told you so. maybe folks will start paying attention

August is not over yet, you can still get your pips back! But don't go chasing them! Wait for your trade and take it!

Excellent record - I lost GDP 7k in my first 3 months of everyday trading but I was just a boy - giving it all away - just a boy - nobody else to blame

Did you end up going long? Your prior post said you were going to wait for confirmation.

Yeah i decided against it. I still want to see the low tested by a close of one hour or four hour candle. I still believe it will give another chance. I also said though it could just go up from where it was.


This has a potential of a move up of 700-800 pips. Just have to wait and see. I don't trade this time of day to slow I most likely will wait till london or right before.

Not at this time. I don't have a set up confirming the entry. The 4 hour and 1 hour look nice for a long though. Going long is a counter trend trade.

Good call. We have lower lows and lower highs which confirms the downtrend is still in play. I expect a test of todays low and another pullback, but will wait to enter once I have confirmation of the trade. Low volume this time of day along with low volume for the month of August are two whipsaws waiting to cut.
