What do you think do we get a short on the 15 min? Lower low and maybe a significant candle. Additionally the last 1 h candle was a hangman after the upmove.

The problem with the last 1h candle is that on the one hand it is a hangman and on the other hand it touched the 1h 62 ema. For me as somebody who has not enough experience with pa I'm a bit uncertain what to do.

The market wasn't volatile as expected after the news and so I went long at 5921 and took profit at the 1h 62 ema or 5949.

thx :-) Unfortunately I made some mistakes earlier in the day so my results are negative today. But anyway it's demo and I still have alot to learn.

Looks like a tweezer top emerges on the 4h.

I'm short from 5955.
Had a hanging man just close on the h4 and a fairly flat close through the h1 62. Plus, as good measure a gartley pattern on the m15.
