That doesn't work always AK, this is the perfect market condition to trade the LWMA60.

Over the next weeks, the US may sprinkle viagra on it's wheaties and come out strong. I like the stoch on this. But I don't like the MACD. But there's been occasions where I didn't like it and still showed me lots of love.

So my verdict is simple. Short for now with a wide S/L to give this thing room to breathe. It's a bit like The Hulk. You don't like it when it's angry. And you want to give it as much room as you can spare.

And as always, I'm holding on to my f@#king hat with both hands.

Looking at the HOURLY Chart it seems that we have made a Inverted H/S Pattern.
I disagree. that would be a reversal pattern, and where is it reversing from at this point, and where would it reverse to? You didn't say in your post or on your chart, so not sure what to make of that.

The orange box represents the Range that price is currently in. The "reversals" such as they are/were is the PA just below and just above the box following the initial drop down last week. Upper left corner of the box is the weekly open gap.

You could potentially find mini shampoos on lower tf's that signal small reversals of a few dozen pips either way, but those are unreliable at worst and expire pretty quickly at best, and then they're irrelevant after that.

I think this was the best H&S this week. I believe Driver55 called it as well. The target was met to the pip!

It was ripe to break, the triagle was very small, now a retest to see if we reload.

Still not convinced to shoot again, especially watching the 1H chart

In the time i've still been here dithering about, my 6m has turned south, and my 20m is halfway thru confirming a turn south as well.

My remaining long portion got stopped out for +53 and I'm short on a small order from 3270 with a stop just above 90.

The possibility is that some profits were taken off dropping price down to the 5m 89ema (3260) to the freakin pip, but w/o actually turning the direction. The protracted stall here plays havoc with fast MA's on lower TF's like mine, and I go to plan B, which is short the stall for Big Pips and take a small loss if wrong.

If it does drop and price stalls at the CP, then that's probably it till Fo/Lo and it could thrash about and wind up staying there anyway when it settles down. Otherwise, I'd look for the target areas back at the DP and M2 down by the 1hr Lower BB. Either way, I won't be here.

Cheers and gone.

my thoughts exactly...a real breakout would have moved more from the breakout wall in a much shorter amount of time. To me this is just an extension of the triangle upper wall..just creating more room for ranging until euro session.

if we manage to break 1.3285 then maybe i will consider this a real break...big maybe there and no intentions of buying this...or selling for that matter
you know you are a forex trader when you doze off at all times of the day for no apparent reason...even at 22 years old as i just passed out for the last few hours starting at 7pm......

anyways that post seems to still be valid....85 is holding...yet we havent re entered the previous triangle either...price action is stuck in the middle. so....for now i have added a second line to price action...an extension of the upper wall of the triangle to portray where price action is contained. I have also selected the temporary support and resistance. As before..a breakout of this area will indicate further direction.

Still flat...good pippin all

If it moving slowly ahead is fine, every pip counts.

Will this bull flag on 1H work out?

I think I'll better take a nap, see you

i did consider that however given the possibility theres an even bigger bear flag on the 4h charts...not considering any valid and letting pa do the talking by breaking known S/R levels. in any case i problably will remain flat all day as this is still the calm before the storm...when the storm hits and it should be starting soon (3-4 hours)....i doubt technicals can keep up with how volatile pa will be....to be seen


watch and dont touch...my philosophy for the day...april 2nd will go down as a memorable day in history...must have a front row seat
