Is anybody long?

I'm waiting to see if we make it to 1.482x area. That would be a 618 retrace of Friday's price range. It might not make it, but I'm hoping.

Morning, everyone.
4845 is 50% retracement from Friday, and for past couple hours it's showing pretty strong support.
BUT
We've got two hangmen on 15M. I hope they can push it down.

We may well see a H&S, but right now the H4 and H1 are bullish.

Jigsaw, it's nice to see you....
Agreed especially with the stuff I put in bold.

Thanks for the welcome eo (Or as you say around here. . . Brother ! )

Yeah the markets have been kind, but because of my "poor university student" status I, however, am not exactly marching an army of soldiers up and down the charts if you get me .

Thanks for the welcome.
