the h1 and the h4 are making me shaky as well. I've closed mine out for +5 and now I'll wait til the h1 closes. If she was going to fill the wick of the h1. I believe she would have already done it by now.
I'm waiting on the h1 close myself...

Above the 21 though. I'm out on the sides, waiting for a new bus.

Me too, but I'm leaning short. Especially considering that London is close to closing.

[edit] History

According to folklorists, there is no written evidence for a "Friday the 13th" superstition before the 19th century.[1][2][3] The earliest known documented reference in English occurs in an 1869 biography of Gioachino Rossini:
[Rossini] was surrounded to the last by admiring and affectionate friends; and if it be true that, like so many other Italians, he regarded Friday as an unlucky day, and thirteen as an unlucky number, it is remarkable that on Friday, the 13th of November, he died.[4]

Quick question. What criteria did you use to determine it would bounce off the 5/10 EMA? The bar finished as a pin bar, so it must have been the case that the trade was taken before the 15M candle closed, and I've always been weary about guessing how candles would close, so I'm keen to hear what gave you the confidence to take the trade in this case.

Thanks
