Sure bro! My SL was at 6325 for my intial entry. We had a close across the 15m 35/50 The closed price was at 6372 less 35 = 6337. To account for the opening of the DOW I adjusted my SL down to 6325. Originally, my SL would have been around 6330. Same SL I have on the new order.

I'm at BE right now on the rest of my position. Not much left since I ony put 4 on and took 2 off, but it's covered at BE and I'll move to +3 once we get moving more. I'll be looking to add to my position as well.

Understand about the distractions. What do you see overall? Do you see us going to 657x?

I've got my scope on 657x, but with today being TIW and we've pretty much just ranged since the close of the US Session. We might stay in the duldrums for the US Session. Right now, we need to clear 6425 otherwise, we could be going back down towards 6200

I see 6545-70 very possible indeed... but the next h4 will be crucial... it could go down too...
