Back from lunch, my longs are still on, but if 6141 gives way, they will be stopped out.

Don't read too much into it... some wise guy came on here some time ago and said that our system is only good for 10 pips... We have been joking about it ever since....

Some people have come on the thread an accused some of us as being 10 pip scalpers so this is a running joke about not exceeding 10 pips on a trade.

I did, but the rest got stopped out, no worries, the win vs. loss on it made it BE.

Please which candle must we considere to close at a level before we say that level has been clear or broken? 15m or 1hr or what? Thanks
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GOOD AND EXCELLENT IS ATTENTION TO DETAILS.

Depends on the S/R we're talking about and where we're pulling it from. When she's ranging on the m15, then it's the m15 candle that needs to close below/above the price. Most of the time, it's the m15, then we want to see the h1, followed by the h4 to clear those levels as well.
