just for consideration I see a couple of conflicting things on the daily. We do have that possible channel pointed about yesterday (I think by davids). Yet if the broken daily trendline is accurate then a retest would come in around 540 which would also fill the small gap from Sunday night (4h 50). No reason to get caught in a short early without a decent reversal signal

I notice on EO charts that he has some horizontal s/r levels. I am guessing these are previous days high and low? What are the level 2's?

Regards

Hey EO - Was reviewing your document (Intradeay Trading Worksheet) and had a question on the end of it.

Under the day you have fields listed for Prior Day High/Low and then level 1/2 support and resistance. By level 1/2 are you referring to S1/S2 and R1/R2 pivot points based on yesterday's daily candle, or is there some formula you use based upon the daily high/lows?

Or are you just looking at the charts and identifying the next two levels of support and resistance relative to where price is at the moment?

Thanks in advance for clarifying.

Good morning.I had a pretty good night and would like to add to it today.1.6480 looks like good resistance on my charts.
If we break 1.6480/90 then I would be looking at 1.6530 as potential target.
