That is a very reasonable analysis

I would much rather see a BUOB form b/c the pin doesn't really protrude away from the prior lows(again one my little nit pick things )

If price breaks higher that is where one would expect price to find possible trouble area

Thanks for your feedback. Much appreciated. Just one question, tho'. Maybe its me trying to find a reason to trade rather than a reason not to as I am getting frustrated with the lack of action but, couldn't the previous (kind of pinish) bars mean that for the 3rd day in a row now, the price has failed to push below 11000 and therefore we might expect a bullish reaction?

absolutelycould mean that. In fact that often happens, and then I like to see a BUOB engulf that action. Remember just b/c one person might not trade a situation doesn't make it untradable. If you still use the components in a smart way that is ok. All about going through the testing phase and learning what works and what doesn't

I see some pin bars forming on 4hr and 1hr on the eur aud, off the 1.8 round number. AS I entered on daily should I worry about these or simply look at the daily bars?

Personally, and I know others do this as well, I stick to the TF my setup was on. I don't look at other timeframes (especially lower TFs) to affect my current trade. I believe it's better to not mix n match timeframes .

i very much agree with u moneybags, entering on a daily tf, you should stick to that tf, watching lower tf might make you close trades prematurely
dont forget PA on higher tf rules over lower tf....well said moneybags

Had to stand in front of the bulls for 126 pips against me, following my rules, after getting in at the close of the daily BEOB, two days ago.
Now, already in profit, with doubts about keeping my TP above 7275 PPZ or getting out at FIBO 38.2...
Many thanks!

I like this setup today, but you should know that it was NOT a BEOB two days ago... the second bar must trade outside both the prior high and low... The best BEOB also close below the prior low.

Evening all.
Anybody taking the plunge with this outside bar on the Aussie? Closed under the 150ema, and seems to have a bit of room to run.

Finally it seems that this setup will work out.. A BEOB on the 4h followed by a violent break of the PPZ at 0,60. I moved my stop just above this level and see how this 4h bar will close. My take profit at 58,10 is too greedy? Maybe, i'm ready to move TP at about 0,5900, which seems to be the first trouble zone.
What do you think?
Well done bakko. This shows the power and strength of an A trade setup in my book. Even Mike would have to agree on the location and supporting confluences. Heck, it even had a hard break.

Swing High, initial break is below the big round nummber of .6000, Weekly/Daily PPZ level .6100-.6000 (.6050ish), Divergence. The PB could have been bigger but what else is there to look for.

I would look for targets on the same time frame you took the trade: On the Daily (green lines).

I nice confidence builder on the power of high quality "A" PA setup. imo

Agreed. good location and good sized PA.
I'm going in at 1.7496 (using FXDD charts, 10pip below the daily low)

let's see where the trade take us.

I've set for 7480 just because its a round number and want to skip false break.

I love the location (check out the nice PPZ flips on the weekly chart) but the sideways action over the last three days is making me cautious.

Also the big bullish bar on the weekly (last weeks bar) puts me off a bit.
