EO...what's the London fix ????
Well, I guess Turtle is gone. The London fix is where the positions during the London trading session get squared away.

I would wait for the h1 to close. I see what you see, but I also see buyers still ready to push this higher. The last 15m with the long upper wick, small body and small lower wick is shadowed. I would prefer to play that wick if it wasn't shadowed by the two big ass candles prior to it. It's your call though bro. She does keep getting rejected when she gets in to 465x area. Might have a good short opportunity.

Could you tell me what page on the Candlestick PDF These are located .. I am having trouble finding it..

Those 2 15m candles during the news spike must count as the biggest 15m 35-50 reverse ever. lol

I would call it "inverted hummer".
Also, is there "inverted" H&S on 15M?

"Bullish Inverted Hammer Pattern is a candlestick characterized by a long upper shadow and a small real body preceded by a long black real body. It is similar in shape to the Bearish Shooting Star. The shooting star appears in a downtrend and thus it becomes a potentially bullish inverted hammer."
