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.

ARRRGHT I SHOULD'VE SEEN THIS POST

i went short and my stop was precisely at 69 and it precisely the level where it turned around and went to 6410. when will i learn to set proper stop.......

A close under 6434 in 10m on the h4 will support the move to 6350 even more.

Indeed, the dblhc we're going to get on the h4 will introduce buyers into the field of play. Longs from here need a SL below 6390

Price closed at 6338, missed it by 4 pips. Going to the details, longs will be playing in the field now. An ideal long entry would be now or around 642x, still keeping the SL below 6390. This trade by design is off of the h4. Which means, it could take upto 4h to develop.

Remove the emotion Komissar! It's hard, but you have to let it go. Prepare the soldiers and command them into battle. If your looking to take a long seat, there will be another opportunity I believe for that long seat. If we get into 642x area, I will be jumping on a long position myself.

Good morning again fellow traders.

The Ladies have shown me a bunch of love today. I hope some of you took advantage of the 15 min hammer on the Mistress earlier this morning.

OK, I need to get the terms straight here.

GU is the Mrs. because she's more stable and boring and..

EJ is the mistress because...well...she's just more fun?
