Guys keep your eye on the h4. If the h4 gives us a dbllhc, we will continue northbound.

I know everyone knows this but just in case. When the price is heading towards the MA's it is pushing it away from the price . So a lot of time especially on the lower ma's it rarelly actually touches .. So you have to jump a tad bit early..
I think it's true - pushing MA away - for 5 and 10. 35 and higher are more massive and have some inertia.

agreed, i think it was Monday I learnt this lesson, cost me about 100 pips as i didnt enter due to it being 2 or 3 pips short of an MA that had moved

Hi guys. Back for a few minutes, then I've got to leave again.

I'm liking my longs at the moment. I've adjusted SL's and TP's and taken a bunch off the table.

Later!
Hi, my name is Barry and you can keep your doctor...

You a bit grumpy today EO?
Sorry bro, but I'm just a little frustrated right now that's all. Please don't take offense. We have anywhere from 20-40 people a day in here and half the time only 5 of us contribute. Take my analysis I posted on Sunday. Only two people made a comment about it. The two that did comment I know already know how to read charts, I was kinda expecting more questions. I know that not everyone is getting this method and that's fine, but you can't get it if you don't ask questions.

DBLLHC is a double low higher close candle. The h4 that is getting ready to close in 17m will show it very clear compared to the prior h4 candle.
