Back during us session.... There's some news coming up in about 45 mins which should cause some movement plus boe report and fed statement to come later on.

Trade safe guys....

See you in about 5hours bro! I'm about done myself, but I want to see this h4 turn and about another 15-30m after.

Excellent trading again!

BTW, I do have support on the h4 at 6398, not major because it's the top side, but this is the first venture to it, so it could hold for the time being. Careful taking short positions here at 6400.

got mine covered in the green either way, got alot of news out today also adds to volatility, PA stalling here, perhaps needs a squeeze up b4 a further move down...

last move seemed like stops getting triggered hence the bounce up...

daily trendline nearing approach at 16370 area, could be key area today....

Don't let this deter you from taking shorts off the m15 5/10.

We have the whole h4 that needs to confirm the breakout of it's range, this pullback is not surprising, now I don't want to see price go over 6434 since that was our last pullback price to confirm the h1 breakout.

Good eye on the PA! Green covered trades are the best!

Congratulations on your marriage! It's definately an adjustment, but well worth it as long as your both on the same page and willing to make the same adjustments.

Next adjustment will be kids!

Now, to a bigger picture, 6469 is an area I can see getting tested on the h4 alone to confirm it's breakout which would put price above the 21 but below the 35/50 on the m15. Thus the supporting reason to take a short from this area should price reach it.

4hour chart, dont usually look at fibo retracements, but worth a mention here, notice now 50% level held as resistance now 61.8% provided a small bounce...
