Sorry not very clear.

I meant the break of the top of the london range around 1.6195x... The broken top blue line in the clip

Breakout? Long off the m15 5 was the long to have taken, not that a long here won't work out, but we have an h4 candle getting ready to close in 20m.

EO if you have time could you enlighten us on the targ today of 1.626,(which again hit spot on)

I think I have similar concerns as Komissar identifying these targets..

I found this res/sup on the 4 hr which I believe you were using as a target

If yes, could you explain why this takes precidence over other levels

Thanks

I am sitting here scratching my head the 1hr closed above the ma's but shows some buyers at 6235 yet Iam inclined to the long side when I get like this I find its cheaper for me to watch for a obviuos signal instead of making a bonehead trade.

E/j would of been nice buy down at that big round number could of had a tight stop and just tested the waters I do that at those big numbers with good results. Instead Ive completely missed a low risk trade right infront of me even posted about it. Think my brian is on the train this morning
