Look at those previous 2 15m candles close 1st one at 1.6441 2nd 1.6437 those two close above 1.6435 really helped we were trapped

Nice trade McFly!!
Thank you

Honestly I thought this trade is a bit risky because I think there was a bearish harami(?) before. But the good thing was it closed above the close of the last high.

A long arround 6435 would be nice.

Last h1 closed created a DBHLC. The retest of the opening price of the last h1 was to be expected. I shorted the hell out of it AGAIN at 6481 on the test of the opening price of the last h1.

Did no one get in long during Eur/Lon around 636x with the h1 50 and m15 200 as support?

I see what your seeing, we're on top of the h1 10, once we clear the h1 10, we'll see 636x again.

She's still in her morning US range pre breakout. She can go either way. Short is against the grain, but as all things, what goes up, must come down and vice versa.
