Thanks EO

Sorry for the delay just finished our evening meal.

I have the sheet. thanks.
I had a pivot where you targeted 1.6150.
I pull sup, res and pivots from my broker (FXCM) and I also have them automatically from my MT4 platform.
I would just feel happier if I was identifying crucial areas myself unless I am over complicating things!!!

I will follow your explanation through on my charts and as always I much appreciate your insight.

Look at this chart and the trendline I have drawn on it. As well, it was on the other side of the h1 range we were in at the time. We broke the m15 range and h1 range at the same time. The pullback to the 15m 10 along with the trendline was the play to get back in long. Did you get the Intraday Worksheet I posted over the weekend?

Excellent bro!.... we are also approaching the h4 50ema...which could provide an even better selling opportunity if it holds...

I took a few pips at the m15 5ema.. can't lose again on this one..

You can do it! Have patience and follow your charts. We all make bad trades bro! I was short last night in the Asian session from 6210 and covered too quickly. I kicked myself in the ass as well, but got back in on the short bus when she confirmed her breakout on the m15. She confirmed her breakout then on the h1 as well and we all know where she ended up. Today's US Session has been about the same. She ranged, broke out on the m15, confirmed and then broke out on the h1 and confirmed. Use the worksheet! I'm in the process of revising it so it can be used for all three sessions to comprise the daily. This way, it can be printed once and used and all your S/R is right there in front of you along with your ranges and breakouts.

Covered as well with 20 in the bank on the position. We did finally break out trendline of the breakout though, so now she should continue southward. Not to mention, we might get a PIN on the h1.
