I've already hit my daily targets, now I'm just leaving the small position I have left on them to run until end of day or longer depending upon how PA develops.

I am with you, buddy. But something wrong today.

Realy April Fool!

Six candles in a row, long wicks on their tops, 2 pins - and this bitch going UP!

Look at the major pin driver though. We never got more than 25 pips over the wick. Thus why my SL is 25 over the wick on pins. We're all green and happy now. I've taken some off and covered the rest. I'll consider again should we get back up in 4400 area.

I just took a quick one from 4400 and took off at 4377 and left one solider @ +2.

Am I correct in thinking the pin on the 1hr is driving the bus now?

For confirmation, which driver are you using? :nerd:

Nice work! We might get a 1hr pin or a 15min hanging man in 5 mins i reckon might short it if we do

Me too,
Look at the H4 Its just hit the 50 fib and the current candle is looking like a strong pin.

I'm biased(and short) but I think it must go down.

But hey what do I know.

Are you short bro?
Yeah, sorry I took so long. My computer keeps crashing, then rebooting on it's own.
Yeah, I'm short, Just when I was about to bail on the short, the damned computer crashed. It cost me big time. I couldn't get out on the spike down. I'm about to throw the SOB out the window.

Hangman on the h4 looks possible. I'll let price drift upwards before I take that short.

Sorry! I know your pain! We have other factors supporting your short. Hangman coming on the h4, prior pin on the h1. SL over 4450
