Morning all

No coffee! now that is a tragedy... does this help


This certainly is a frustrating morning for movement.... Had to go and dig the garden to stop myself from making emotional trades.....

The 15 min has just closed below the 200ma first time on my charts for 5 days. Lets see what U.S. session brings

Went short with my instincts... now closed half at +15pips

Overnight upward sloping TL could confirm its break on a retest
