I sure wish I was in from the 133.9x area with you going north.
How about my long on GU? You and I were on the phone when I took that price.

Rub it in wise guy. That ended up being an expensive massage when you factor in the opportunity cost.

Welcome to the thread! I expect nothing! We're at a critical point on GU. Either she is going to go back north and maintain this range she's been in, or she's going to continue her movement short. As you've pointed out, there is a hammer on the h4, but it's not a bullish hammer (meaning it was still a bear candle and it closed 3 pips lower than the previous h4 candle) and it's kinda sckewed with having a top wick. Buyers were sitting down here waiting to pounce and they did. Will they have enough strength to continue on, I don't know, only our charts will lead our way. Right now, it's showing bullish intent, but we need to also remember today is TIW and people could just be squaring positions before reloading shorts.

Still, if I was holding a long here I wouldn't close it just yet.

Don't let me talk you out of a position. If you see a long back to the top, take it. I have a long that I'm sitting on myself that would love to see the top, but my short from the top wouldn't like that. So, I'm in turmoil. Glad I have a 3rd account to trade with. For the time being though, we're probably going to range between 625x and 622x until we get out of the US Session. I could be wrong, but she's consolidating right now on the m15.
