I don't know, I can't be convinced about it unfortunately. My 1h closed lower than last hour and looking like an awful dragonfly doji (okay it wasn't quite at the top of the run up...). There are lots of ways to make money in this market, luckily many less frightening than a long up here
Exactly! There's money to be made on both sides. I've already reversed my position, but I grabbed some nice pips with only the spread as my drawdown. Same with the position I'm in now, I only had a minimal drawdown and I'm up nicely!

I think I'm the only one trading....

I took 4 trades from the tops.. When it stalled at various resitance areas.. all small winners But as I have PE Premature Ejection. I never held them to long.

I am as nervous as a cat in a rocking chair factory around news.
