I believe you have to leap like Daffy says.. But it is with the trend. I know PIPPINOLE is have great success with these trades. Here is a chart showing some of these available last night.

Hi Ken & good morning mates.

Excellent chart for visual understanding what words try to say on "% o´clok somewhere bounce".
May you please post some chart of other trigger: "15 min 35-50 MA spike throug"... maybe cant understand this set up because my english is only intermediate.

Regards.

Brave trade !!

I only dared take the short

and picked up ten pips and half at break even.

My greatest joy came from recognising the setup, thanks to EO and co..

If I am learning correctly there may be another short opportunity if we reach the hourly 62 EMA and gets rejected..

I might be getting to far ahead of myself now so I will send myself back in the corner to cool off

That is true...I'm watching 4840, which was last support this morning and now is resistance.

We could be in the daily ranging mode for the US Session, like it's been all week.

You saw the opportunity to buy back at support as did Ken. I will keep working at it and try to catch up with you guys.

From your avatar it looks as though you probably have good reflexes and a quick acting brain.

Good level, I had a auto sell order at 1.48384 which was triggered and now up 18 pips. Another success for me to see the set up and the level.

I feel things slowly coming together, since I have been following EO's thread with all the help coming from so many people.
I lost my way and almost gave up trading last year but feel some confidence coming back. not enough yet to go back to live trading but my account patiently waits for me.

Trading is becoming fun again
