Possible.... but I doubt it....take a look at how the daily is shaping up... I think buyers will start coming in at 4370ish... If we get a h4 close below 4320 then things will get interesting....but until then, I still think we are heading up...
Ok, thanks. I already bagged some green pips on this short and I'm waiting on the next bus.

I had a short from 4414, took half off at 4391, then closed the rest just now at 4408.

I just didn't like how she was stalling, been in that trade since noon. And she barely moved 25 pips in either direction. Hopefully a better setup will present itself later.

Time to get the kids from school, catch ya'll later.

HOLLA

Cable seems to have ground to a halt. Anyone think it's waiting for Eo to come back from lunch?

Nothing wrong with short... I see a good 30 pip scalp opp from 4420 off m15 that just missed me because I was on the road... but higher tfs say up..

On h4 I see break of trendline, retest of tl, bounce off tl, ........

Excellent job yourself on those longs bro! I closed it because I did'nt like how the h1 was shaping up... I will look to get in again lower if the opportunity presents itself...

Profit is always good bro! I can understand why you took them out, same reason I've taken 2 shorts positions today with my longs still open. We could see the 200sma on the h1. I also have a trendling on the h4 that coincides with that price as well.

That matches up with the channel I got drawn, plus some resisitance @ 4450.

Turtle and I talked about this price level of 443x over the weekend, she's appearing to be holding her. Let's see if we get an entry signal here off the 15m.
