I would not go long here at this price, but if your already long like myself, my next TP level is 5270. I'm watching the h4 that closes in 49m very close. There is where I might reverse my position, but I might have missed the golden entry at 5245. No worries either way.
Right back up here near 5245. Waiting on my h4 to close in 34m.

my h4 shows we could still have a further move north to the 5270.
Actually, this H4 trendline is around 1.533x.

Understand! I could recommend to save your money though and not pay for the monthly data feed they are charging you. Their "data feed" price is more of a residual income for Wizetrade or Globaltech or whatever their name is now. Nothing against their products, they have some good products with bells and whistles. But once your comfortable reading the charts, then you won't need the fufu. Think about it, your probably paying $130 per month x 12 months = $1560 that you could apply towards funding an account. Just a thought!

If you don't mind me...
Lol..... you are reading my mind.... all the while I was trying to learn their system, I was getting so frustrated due to the lack of logical explanation of price movement and reversals... their methodology and teaching does not do the price action and S/R theory any justice...it is hard to see true S/R on their charts. I had NEVER tried trading before, and knowing that the trading world is full of snake oil vendors, I picked them as a place to start. I spend 200.00 per month for their Forex and "forex tracker" programs. each program is 100 per month....aside from their Automated trading platforms for stocks and forex, which exceed 3k plus the monthly feed. The real reason I chose them to start was thru a recommendation of a trader who had a thread going on the MSN boards. The community I found there (Wizetrade) was and remains very helpful for a green newbie like me. I am a technician in the way my mind works, so I gravitated to the unhidden way that candle charts and all the analytical tools function...so much different than WT's "what you see is what you get" products. But, to be fair, I owe them much for helping start me on my journey. As you stated, my money will be better spent elsewhere once I grow some Forex feet under me. For now, I use it as a crutch, as well as having made some friends their that I chat with on their chatrooms, as well as a fellow who has helped mentor me that has traded 30+ years, and uses both WT and candle charts together.
Someday, I may unplug my umbilical cord from WT. I already have been using candle charts exclusively for the last 1 1/2 weeks, and like it very much. Their training videos, chatrooms, forums,and daily Web broadcasts have helped me get a firm foundation of understanding to draw from. I had to start somewhere. Thanks for asking.

Yes sir it is! I'm no longer on the long bus though. I was convinced by the 15m candle that failed to surpass the 5245 price to close and reverse. I don't like the low volume, but I've booked 10 and I'm covered now at +2. The long ride was very nice though. I agree, we could still see it go higher. I will assess more once my daily candle closes. The short I took is my last trade of the day til the Asian Session.
