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...
Excellent trading bro!

That conincides with what I'm seeing on GU as a possiblity.

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

Are u saying that is the target for the shorts?

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 took it for a few different reasons: trendline (from FOMC low), 4h 5sma just below, and the 50 you mentioned

I see the problem, you post an h1 chart, not h4.

More confluence to take the setup! Good job! I'm sure you booked some nice pippage on the move.

Yeah, i just was showing what london's last 4h candle that closed at 11am EDT looks like overlayed on the 1h chart.

London's 4h end of session close is powerful.....now if US 4h closes bearish in 30 mins........well, u can see where i am heading with it.

Buyers are coming out of here, they might have enough power to push price back up to 6605.

EO or Infinity,

As seen on the current GU 15m:

Do you consider trade setups on "second
visits" to and through the 35 and 50 mas
and place any "weight" on the fact that
the previous successful cross did not
achieve new highs on the chart?

Could this breakdown diminish the value
and strength of a pending 35 - 50 cross setup?


I'm in on a demo this time.

Dr. D.
