Maybe just the occasional one?

I didn't get a message bro, send it again when you get the chance.

And yes, I do post the occasional call from time to time.

Hi guys...my daily is screaming long...5900 was half way down the wick of yesterday's pin. Bottom of last week's range is my target! Not today but soon. Lot of resistance to get through.

Nice to see some method in the madness.

Just thinking aloud.......

She gave some PA at higher TF s/r (spinning top 8.30/8.45am gmt) to start the move back up today. Corresponding to a retrace back down the wick of the prior daily candle for a possible long entry. This 15m PA just also happened to occur at the 15910 level, more or less to the pip of the +/- 35 pip range either side of the 15m 35sma (One of my favourite revelations of EO's method)

Then on her steady ascent to get back above the 15m ma's she's paid respect to previous PA along the way.

Also throw in six 35/50 cross/reverse trades that have played out on GU alone today.

All gems that have been generously shared by EO and the other senior members on this thread

Wicked analysis macc. I'm also eying a long of that daily. I just caught the H1 62 bounce, but closed out at the m15 200 for exactly that reason. When PA like that occurs on the daily, one can't be looking for huge moves going against it.

Shilva, I have longs from the bottom of the wick that are targeting 611x. Not sure when or if we'll get there, but your eye is right on for the PA presented.

I just used the Jedi Force. It came within what looks like half a pip on my feed. I would normally let it play out a bit, but we had a nice pin bar on the m15 already, and it hadn't touched the 62 in a long time - making for more of a chance of it playing out. I saw the price stall just before it and didn't want to miss it so I pulled the trigger.
