Thanks, it was a nice 15 min pin bar and the 1 hr looked favorable also. It was also nearly a 50% retrace.

I had 4 pips below your price... took 50 pips and covered... I see great possibilities in this but we need a good day close as well..

I decided short with 20 pip SL

I thought about it, then I decided balls to it, its my decision. SHE WILL GO DOWN ON ME!!!!!

EDIT: Then I start to wonder, the SL should be above the last H1 high by a pip or two
back from a shower and some green pips, what a good do, closed 2/3 and let other 1/3 run

I was watching it on the 1h candle....when the pin candle closed at 12pm EDT i watched the next candle run right back up almost to the top of the pin and hesitate.

Pounced on her right there!

It was a no risk trade almost immediately.

For you DOW watchers. Looks like the DOW has tested and failing to get back up. Next stop could be 8500.
Well, we touched 8500 and closed at 8504.67
