Great job yourself bro! I am thinking I should have just taken that short with you near the m15 10 where I banked some profit...I see I am going to get stopped out soon...

I am watching the h4 closely... if we close above the 50ema with tweezers... I be buying again... key word is IF..
I agree with your h4 analysis. And like you said, the keyword is IF. Otherwise, my short TP will go to 6070, 6025 then 5960
