Shorting a breakout after the spike is different from shorting during the spike. If people are entering a candle/bar that is moving then they are going to get punished. If the candle has closed and you set up a short then IMO thats a smarter way of trading.

For example I traded the breakout of the previous hours pin bar, I didnt get in before hand incase the bar ended up a completely full bullish bar, the story told in the bar would have been completely different and my trade set up wouldnt have existed.

In the end you will be right some wrong...
sorry i disagree.. what was the support that gave away? the 45/50 level .. what happened at price RE-TESTED that level? its back down now...let the break occur, and then jump on board as price returns to the scene of the crime ..

breakout .. pulback ..POSITION .. pips.

shorting after a spike down is nonsense... you are sitting what -20 right now? id be shitting myself

Hahahaha!
Nonsense? You speak as if the plot was a matter accurate, precise movements. Never seen a sharp decline when a resistance is broken? I work entering the market so I have a safe position of the main motion.
I prefer to stay in DrawDown of not being in the great movement.

Each person with their strategy, but thanks for the warning would have been good to accompany m5

it ain't going back to 153 anytime soon.
a re-test of that TL and there is also support there .. i favor it and will short there

something drastic needs to occur to let the floor fall out and for every pair to just tank.. maybe it has a one way ticket another 300 pips down, but i can guarentee with >50% probability that it will revisit that level and give a nice short opportunity.

No where did I say to enter this candle on any break of any level. I said to trade the breakout once the candle has closed. I also dont agree with the trade at 6030 as the candle was still running, but if you trade a much lower TF then you may have had reason too. My limit is 1 hour charts and I dislike these at the best of times.

But in the end your allowed to disagree just as I have disagreed with the long trades most have taken, but as mentioned some prefer to scalp for 30 pips off small TFs, I prefer the returns of greater Risk/Reward than 1:1 and to do so means trades usually need to run longer than a couple of hours.
