I was in at 6567. but screwed up moving my stop up too early.

Still..... got in and banked 25 pips on half the position....which is the first time I have achieved this so very happy..

Good job!

EDIT:
WHOA!! I don't do the 35/50 cross and reverse on the h1, only on the m15.

I do trade the mistress, but not intraday if I'm in GU intraday. I don't have enough monitors yet, but soon to be corrected. The setups work the same on her as they do the Mrs.

Tweezers look a little skewed.

Your reentry (should it be needed) might be the one for the rest of the week as well. I wouldn't mind seeing the same play out for GU.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who took this long position? It's the simple m15 35 cross and reverse order. The 50's are sitting right below the 35 supporting the order. I know there were atleast 3 of us who took it.
I saw that trade.. missed.. to late . maybe next time

Look at the tweezer bottoms though from the last two closed h4's. What's the lowest prices on those two candles please?

Would like that as well bro! Took some more profit at +20... stop at be now... I see a possibility of a 200-300 pip move if the tweezers hold based on the daily...

Breaking the 10 pip rule and cheating.
