HI guys

I haven't posted here before but have been quietly learning a huge amount. I have a question which is going to seem elementary to most but I will ask for my peace of mind. The 4 hr close if it is a pin after this small rise in price will this sway traders to go short and find their optimum setups on the 15 min chart or is this a bullish pin as the long tail is facing downwards
Thanks for any responses and good fortune to everyone here.

Rob

hehe take it easy, no rules is law right.

I actually trade this when I see it's going what you guess... if want to fit the title. >_<

I just amend because last time I said usd/chf was not a double top, (1.15&1.16)
but I went back to check, the usd index was still a double-top.(86&86)

I'm running. trade well.~

I see where you're coming from Nav... but atm, based on technicals, gu is getting exhausted and needs to breathe.. We are near strong resistance right now and the risk/reward is greater for shorts atm... I'm short from 4919 btw...

She is really being a major BITCH today!If we get a fall does anyone have an eye on 1.4780, still looks possible to me.

What I did'nt like about the h4 close is that is was well above the 5sma.. So I am still a bit cautious...
