Possible reversal:

- 4hr pin
- 61.8 fib
- 89ema (it's not shown on the chart below)
- Zoom out to the daily to see previous support

I took the the retrace of that BEOB on 1hroff a daily ppz with 61fib confluence. the BEOB also closed below the 365ema

It is a bit sideways mkt but thinking it may push down to the 50fib at about 14200

You could probably wait for breakout then let it tested the support and enter on pullback. I think that's the way Mike did it.

Off topic:

Dude, are you in UW-Madison? Cause that would be awesome lol cause I'm in UW-Mad as well. Just figure it out from your signature.

Thanks for the clarification Hipster Pipster. Figured that was what you were looking for on the AUD/CHF.

X2, I have closed all my long positions. I am already short. Its off 1.4350, I have been eyeballing that area for yonks.

Don't like the form of the PIN on the 4HR too much though. . .

Lets see the what the bears are made of when (if) this 1HR and 4HR break.
Will possibly add a small position on the break of the four hour, I'll see what PA it throws up around the area anyway. 1.42 Looking like support to me though . ..

Hola! Como esta? I never met Trujillo, but I toured his homes (Mahogany House and that ugly concrete thing on the hill...), but I DID meet this guy in 1972.

I lived in Arroyo Hondo in Santo Domingo. Spent weekends in Boca Chica and La Romana - before a single hotel was built! Welcome to the forum!

IMO the most dificult part of trading...Most of my entries are right, but problems comes at the exits moment (Money Management).

For that reason, I would like to ask you guys, (I know everyone has their own style):

*after you made your T. analisys based on PA you enter with one position or spit that position in 2 lots (or more)

*Do you set your s/l and TP at the moment that you place the oreder or later?

*How much of your position do you recomment to close after price is going in your favor.


The way I'm doing lately is open 2 position (50-50%) closing one of them at certain point that I see some minor price consolidation (or S/R level). After that move my S/L to brake even (or around). This way I got great Win% but I decrease my profits.


I appretiate you guys kindly show me the way work for you.

Thank you in advance

Every trade is different ....be flexible with the market...ask yourself if the trade is a trend trade or a counter trendtrade then base it on that...counter trend trade require more attention and more alert as well as moving your stop loss to break even faster or locking pips....a trend trade needs more breathing space as well as the targets are deeper ...keep in mind every timeframe has its own trend so you have to know if your timing another timeframe or if your treating it as its own....

Yes, I got in on the break of this grouping of PBs (1.4024). I didn't want to post it because its a bit off the trail. But it looked good for a small position trade.

No surprise where this hit. As Jim's chart had shown. Sometimes I get it to the pip but not always. lol

Jarroo,

Just curious as to why you did not get in earlier on the break of the pin at about 1.39?
PA is where its at!!
