Did anyone else jump in long with me or am I alone atm? The 1h is shaping up nicely. If she should fall down, I'll add to my position around mid point of the bottom wick of the 1h candle.

Sometime's I'll take a position at the opening of the 1h candle, others, I will let price drift down around the mid point of the pin and start building there. Either way, SL is below the wick of the 1h pin.

My son woke me up a little early this morning, so when I saw my position was closed and how price reacted at 4000, I went back long at 4029 and closed at 4125. About like the same position I'm in right now.
Excellent trading bro!!

The downward pressure is still strong. I'm still in my long position watching price as we near the 4000 level.

I went short at 4054 based on long up wicks rejecting the 21 EMA.

Btw, I have now upgraded this thread to the second tab in my firefox. First is cable.

I see what you are looking at bro but I don't like the pa for long based on the h4 and even the h1.... I also see a potential shampoo on h1 which could take us back down to 3956 or lower..

As to the h4 candle, you don't like it because it closed inside the prior bearish h4 candle with a long upper wick?

That's right bro... it is the next close that should give us more solid confirmation though as it may have already played out with the rejection off 3992 area...
