A triangles break caught. Position closed for a small (41 pips) profit at 89.763.
And back with a sell. Will be adding some weight when (if) the comb plays out according to the given situation.

And one more triangle might be forming on H4 this time. Some scenarios in my head:

1.The red ascending has got three touches now. If the market want's to build the dotted line triangle it is logical that the red line would be broken with fourth touch. Possible to enter the market with short at the break of the red line. I would stay aside though as we have a support (lower dotted line) so the R:R would not suit me. Interested on a buy from the red dotted lower triangles line.
2. Price doesn't want to go down and touches the upper dotted line. Would...

A one line trade before going to bed didn't take long. Div targets at ~1.2705 almost hit, ADR more than 100%. I'm out. Will be thinking of some shorts now.

While waiting for the up move we could try to play the ascending line that can be seen with three touches already on H4. Will try to jump in with a short if I'll get a confirmation: fourth touch and timing, trend etc. will be in my favor.

Hello Mr. C

Great to see you've started a trading journal. Another thread for me to keep my on!

Loving the charts and it's good to Belekas is keeping his eye on it too. I think Igrok should be proud to have had an apprentice like him, he really seems to be setting the standard these days.

Unforunately due to my job I'm doing all my learning in my spare time so I think it will still be a while before I start posting my charts and maybe even have my own journal like this.

Did you go all the way through the Igrok thread? It's taking me a while, there's a lot of information by the big man in there.

Well good luck to you buddy, I hope the pips make their merry little way from the market and into your account
Maybe money can't buy happiness, but it can give you freedom.

Woke up this morning and saw that my buy was on. Missed the flag so out with rather small 42 pips profit. It's still a 1.1% + on my account.
Some longs are still in my head. Time will show.

Hey Pipdreamer,

Nice to see you here. Since I've started FX I'm 10-12 or sometimes even more hours a day in front of my PC mainly drawing and trying to root up my mistakes. On the weekends when the market is closed - Igroks thread (lost the count of times I've read it) and his book of knowledge to find the answers I need. And you know what leads me to the joy? It's the thing that there are still tons of things I don't know. YET.

Thanks and all the best to you too.

Not a flag C. Take a look at this picture that I've taken from Bulkowski's pattern site and tell me if you see the difference.

I do now. I thought that all I need for a flag is a handle and a flag (channel like) itself. Thanks.

It was only a channel like formation with a lower line that had a decent number of touches.
