check the candle forming on the h1.
That would be our wonderful inverted hangman.

Yes, it would be good one.
May I summarize "Hangman Rules", and you correct me if I miss something?
- Better to buy/sell on short wick.
- SL is at short wick + 25, 50 for inverted one.
- First TP is the length of Long wick.

I got some plays in Asia and London myself but missed most of the US session so far....

There you go! I buy order around 448x or even 447x would be good. I can see us getting to 443x as well though, so keep your eyes peeled.

Notice the hangman forming on the 15m. This could send it down to a good buy level of the 447x, but watch, she could go farther.

4H has pretty strong support around 4450

What if I put long PO at 4485, SL 4435, and first TP at 4520?

If I was looking to long here to hold for a longer term trade, my stop would be below 4390 and my tp would be at least 4750 then higher
