i will let Infinity or Eoh to answer,as they trade 15 min TF....
For me there will be no SHORT....as i am LONG from the London session...i will wait for a reversal Candle and than go down to LTF for possible triggers and confirmation...
i mainly trade HTF only...

I have a question her, if this 6hr candle closes within the wick of the previous candle could we not look at that as a short signal? Please advise.
I wouldn't take a position either way with the h6 candle formation that Baz posted. It's showing the selling pressure, but if we move down on our TF, we can see that we've essentially been ranging for the last 9hrs. No direction has been truely given. Either your short from 651x maybe even 652x or your long from below 646x.

anyone looking at the 1h hanging man on ej ?
Yes I went in earlier off the red IB on the 15 min chart and took some profit and I am still short and waiting to see if the hangman/ DBHLC plays out.

I see what your saying, 6515 will take out my current short position. I will look higher myself if it does get taken out. Not that it's a bad place to short, I'd still keep my SL on the other side of 6530. We take 6530 out, 655x will be see, maybe only 654x. SL on that position would be above 6589.

I can see it bro! I'll be watching for a place on the mistress as well. Unlike yesterday when I was 10 pips too greedy to get in at 133 and wanting 132.9x for my long. I do still see further room for the mistress to move, 134.92 is the line in the sand on a short on her for me. The 15m 21 has provided a nice kick in her jaws upwards.

Yeah I was looking a little further up myself and I am in a + position now no matter what she does.
