Here's what I'm looking at. If the top of the channels hold, we will see 4080 and possibly lower. Were in the middle of the channels atm. Over the past couple of days, we've made higher highs and higher lows. She's shifted upwards, so, if we break the 425x area, we could see 4300 and more, same goes on the bottom, should we break the bottom, we will break it good. Either way, she's been winding up for a big ass movement.

morning all on London time

Here's what I saw this morning, but didn't trade as I was on way to work. I think this is a eo type trade so thought I'd post it

also forgot to mention wick on hourly chart hasn't gone higher than previous one so short continuation more likely

I would 2nd that, but if you had wanted to sell, earlier on the 15m chart would have been better

Exactly! If your not already in a trade, don't go try and find one right now. PA will be the leader. I have 2 shorts left open from 4280, covered at +3. I'll be back online shortly.

Two almost similar set ups with prior price action still in play and on the right second last candle with small wick also supporting a short for quick 20 pips profit.

I think the prior PA is going to get taken out by this 15m candle close. But it did provide some nice quick scalps for a while.

If memory serves this old, tired brain of mine, we could see substantial resistance in the 4320 area. Besides, this is Friday, anything's possible!

This h1 close will be critical to close above 4295 for the upward movement to be supported for a longer duration.

We've already touched the upper trend line on the 4h chart which corresponds with the 150 ema. She could turn on a dime here. Not saying she will, just a word of caution for the green peas.
