Yeah, there was a hard bounce at 1.4503, so I went long. I will take profit based upon the price action as I believe it will come back down and test this again.
Nice seems everyones on board hopefully there will be pips for everyone!

cheers Im hoping 4500 will be strong enough support, we'll soon find out i guess
We will find out. I agree with Galation, we will retest this area. Keep an eye on it. Either keep your SL below 4470 or secure your position and watch PA for a new entry.

Agreed. She has a lot of traffic to get through if she's going to keep going up.

Yea im looking for the price to pull in after a decent spike. I might not get as good as position as the 4500 crowd, but with all the long term profit potential for this bias.. not an issue

Gobble Gobble! I'm coming after it and more! Once SL Triggers start getting hit, this bitch could fly like a rocket. With such a slow creep down, people have been moving their SL accordingly.

She's not going anywhere just yet, so don't fret. Your covered in the green.

Wish I knew what Joe the Plumber thought

It's an uncanny slow slide - makes me feel edgy

Its not meant to be this easy to do shorts..

I am out and getting ready for....what !

It needs to thrash about a bit before we get a clue

1.4488 Strong level
The bearish scenario is consolidated but we could see a temporal change of direction to adjust the downtrend.

There isn't much to say about it at the moment to be honest. I think it will go down to test 1.45 again. When it bounced off 1.4503 just before, it was a hard bounce: there were a lot of buy limit orders being executed at that level. If it goes down to re-test it again, as I believe it will, there will be less of these limit order in place. There may be a bounce, but not as strong. If it does hover around the 1.4500 mark for a while, more often than not, it will break through and go down.

the 1 hour chart just looks so weird..

I look back at all the action before this 'dying swan' thing and there is all the price action chopping up and down and then we go all 'droopy drawers' and it's just un-natural

I could see 1.4350, but until some normal volatility comes back, I have nothing to work on and could be taken by surprise

So I am eating a banana sandwich and tickling the cat and just... waiting

hi

take care from long .... daily candle is very bearish

we can see more deeps ... as i said in morning 1.4352 is my first target still short from 1.5100 when i got the signal on daily chart


if we talk about retracement it goes up ... but if i fall below 1.4520 again i think it will go down again

Ha! That put a smile on my face. Here is the 1h you speak of. You know how it works. The less volatility there is, over an extended period of time, means a bigger and more ferocious breakout. People place limit orders on the other side of support and resistance levels. The longer the price just trickles along, the more of these limit orders will be placed at these support and resistance levels.

Im curious.... what time frame you usually trade?
It seems like the longer time frames like 1 HR and 4HR give clearer directional signals but you have to use much wider Stop Loss and Trailing Stop right?

Anyone here use the 1HR or 4HR exclusively??
