Just got short about close of last candle at 1.4690 - prior PA is always in play until its broken. I'm +26 now, locked in at BE and planning my TP strategy as she moves my way..

Ended up with a quick 20 pips. Not bad for about 5 minutes work. Heading on the road for a bit (stopped on way to school for coffee with my son and paid for it with that trade..)

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
Took a solider off at 4700, moved s/l @ +10, will let the last one ride.

Ditto

The next of kin of these brave soldiers have been notified.

DNA has been extracted from each and every one of them and I'm in the process of replicating them.

In honor of all the soldiers lost in this battle.. But we will not be swayed in our unending quesst for the all mighty PIP..

I wonder whether Sir Isaac Newton had any idea his little gravity discovery would come into play in the forex.

Darn took a short off the last hangman , Should have done it again.. They worry me a bit one after the other especially when they are higher,, But in hindsight I see it was a Flattop also .. Not doing my part to honor those lost in the pursuit of PIPAGE... and the 1 hr supports it with it's own flattop and against that 4 hr trendline.. Still thinking it might run to the top 1.477X

anyone see possible double top/tweezer formation possibly on H4 its early yet for my candle but something to keep an eye on if it is infact a proper formation of them.

I see that on the hourly, but not on the H4. My H4, closing in 40 minutes, is painting a big ass pin.

Remember the working h4 is not closed. Also the working h4 did go 1 pip higher. Keep you eye on that! I have short soldiers and long soldiers still working on the field of battle. My long is covered at +300 from yesterday so I would imagine it'll get stopped out shortly. Watch for the 15m 35/50 cross and reverse.
