well i am not holding any trades but my calculations say that we should logically fall to 1.44x before any further up move... i personally find it hard to believe but the charts say it... i dont know who agrees or who doesn't, lets see whats gonna happen
make it 1.4546 if the new high holds

tweezers are the same as flatop or bottoms but with just abit of a wick..
i call the first one piercing candle, its a high probability signal

the second one, the long wick is medium probability and needs confirmation candle after it

also dont count on the bull signals now on the 4h charts, we are still in a down trend on weekly and monthly.... so play bull signals on 4h trends (1h chart signals) and play bear signals on daily trends (4h signals)

Gee Bro, last time I saw you was b4 Santa dropped the PSP down the nephew's chimney. Good to see you with some time again.

Looks like we just closed the gap and tapped the 61 fib and top of the shelf. I have taken most of my short off at 14830 for 100pips but with the Dow futures , Crude, and most of European indices slipping down a red smudge, it looks like the selling may continue for a bit.

Would we consider that the same set up as EO's quiz set up A on Friday?

ez I bought too but for reasons not connected to EO's technique so didn't mention. First long 4836 stopped for +4. Second 4825 closed again +5. Just tiny scalps. I have a speculative trendline down on the 15m chart, a bit like a bull flag, which is why I started to buy.

Yes, looks like it is on the cards. I will let the rest run with you. We are hitting a zone with some steeply ascending H1 ma's like the 1H50sma and the 50 fibo here at the 14800 level. It also marks the bottom edge of an uptrending Bollinger band so there is a strong probability of a strong bounce. I will be watching for the reaction and may hedge a long till we get back to the m15 ma's.

Looks like the H1 close may support it.
