How could I be so wrong? I was thinking 1.4039.
Morning, folks
Cisco, does it mean you are expecting GU to break UP tl on 4H?

Hi EO,

Did you also trade it with the 50MA's as being resistance?
That's exactly how I played it!

No, I'm not expecting it. But in reality, anything can happen.

Good morning everyone! I trust everyone has had some nice trades so far. I've had a very good start to the week. I'm currently short again from 4200, I've taken 50 off and covered the rest. I can see 4020 today.
Hey bro! I took that same short not too long ago but closed at 4150 and I decided to try a long at 44... I did this because we are still inside the channel... I took some profit at 70 and covered..

If we break out of the channel... I agree we should see 4020-4050 before too long...

Good job on your short bro! I know what you mean about not being outside of the channel yet. It does concern me, along with the h1 hammer we have 4hrs ago.

stopped out of remainder as I typed...

On a serious note though... Eu is approaching a critical area at 3100 where I think there will be buyers too and we are currently at a strong tl for gu..

I closed and went back at 40 myself...

Agree, we don't have confirmation, but we do have prior PA on our side and a trendline to boot..

I also like the fact that we have not closed on h1 under 4150... after 5 tries...
