I agree, I took the break and the short. She had broken out of her range which is why I took the break, not because she broke 4500. My long price was at 4461 TP at 4560 and went short back at 4560. The 15m chart shows the breakout on the range and retest to confirm the move very clearly.

Becareful here! I recommend you get your position covered. I'm flat now ATM, my daily quota has been hit and well exceeded and I'll reassess later for a new position.
Yup. Just closed out my positions.

Thank you! Days like today are fun! Since yesterday's close of the US Session, I've bagged over 300 pips. Can't beat that in a days work.

Prices are never too high to begin buying or too low to begin selling.

Well, 1.4500 was a key level for traders. It served as key resistance over the past few weeks. Those who were bearish would have probably set their stop at a level at or above 1.4500. As the price shot up from a breakout, stops were triggered and they piled up, shooting the price even more. In addition, some traders may have added to their longs on a breakout.

Take note that this only applies to a breakout. It very likely could get back up to 1.4500 and resume it's uptrend.

I dont think so, traders who took the long off the 4500 break had 75 pips in profit..........

Gotta love those false breakouts that alot of folks go long on. Shorts where the trade. Now i think she breaks up for a time.


By the way Pipland and others I said on page 7827 not to trade the break of 4500. More than 24 hours ago. What say you now?

Bullish formation on the 10 min chart. If this 10 min candle closes above 1.45, we'll probably see it going much higher..

Down, down, down.

I don't know to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised to see us close the day with in indecisive candle and continue to range until tomorrow.
