If we do, it'll be 465x next, then 478x

Bedtime for me

hitting resistance here -- line down from 9 Feb top through the last top. Possible tweezers on my 4h which closes in 5m

How can you have tweezers, after the run up we've had?

Please show, as i'm confused

thanks

tweezers usually occur at resistance and support levels to indicate a turn of sorts. My 4h candle has the potential to form them here as we have a resistance line pointing down from 9 Feb high through 24 March high. Sorry but no chart just now

I thought tweezers were 2 candles, same open /close?

I had that trendline, you refer to

I'm not sure if it has to be absolutely precise, but since my 1h and 4h candles just closed at the same time (12pm London), they look like a tweezer top in my experience with the trendline right above. I sold at 4677 and 4685 and am taking some off at the 15m 10sma

they must be on the same timeframe, next to each other.(i think)

your 1hr and 4hr are going to close at the same level, every 4th hour

tweezers require two candles to be adjacent to each other

well if anyone has the same closing time on the 4h candle as me (30 minutes ago) they can give a comment on how it looks. To me it looked likely enough. I know we don't trade on 30m time frames here but that was a big pin...

I'm sorry to report that my short soldiers died in battle for a loss of 66pips. They will not be forgotten and will soon return to my account with new soldiers.

Are we talking about Resurrection? Or, reproduction?

As a veteran, I salute those who died in battle.

Took a long from 4640, took half @ 4673 and covered @ +2.

Let's see where she goes.

HOLLA

Replication means to make a copy of them. That's a little different than resurrection or reproduction. In this case I'll be making a copy of them over and over again.

GM guys!

I bought a little dip around 8:30 pm EST....locked in a few and walked away. Closed it early this morning when my 4h Trend Line alarm went off and shook me out of bed.
