I'm short on USDCAD.
At what level 12440? Is that a NBT?

90%+ probability, confirmed by other tools like a TL or Fib?

Tried to get in at 1.2435 (that's the level on my chart), but missed it and went in lower, at 1.2423. Still in, but it looks spooky.

I'm still in the EURGBP short, with a 20 pip stop. There's a chance it will still break down, based on the M5.

I moved to b/e after a 5m close at 20pips - these are my rules.

Hanging man is still bearish so I might get in again after the next candle close.

Mine too, but I have a small position, so I'm ok with 20 pips.

Setting a limit order at 12440 would have made this a perfect scalp down to 12400.

Yup. Just wasn't sure, as the supply is up to 1.2515. Wasn't sure it would stop right there

No, I am also looking higher to the Fib convergence which makes it more of a NBT.

Just being Harry Hindsight with my analysis!
