Completely agree, I wouldnt touch it. I just meant that it has been the SNB supporting the 4630-4620ish level, so they havent really left the market

I know nothing about options writing but my point was that by what price is telling us there isn't much of anything going on with this pair at the moment.
i think what Sir joelcf meant is that price is being held or corralled by options (another way of saying the above)

i havent researched it yet (i take on too much at the same time, lol), but personally i believe the planets, the sun, moon etc have an effect on earth & human beings, visible/known (effects) or not.

Its important to ask the fairies at the bottom of the garden if you should be in the trade too. And never forget the power of a good spell over the market.

Yes I believe too but this stuff looks like people are searching for the holy grail way too far form themselves. It may work for someone, its just a method and very complicated for me.

The Weekly Gbp/Usd PB has yet to be broken and is still ever much in play in my book. I saw the break of the Daily BUOB (in white) as an early entry to the weekly PB. As we know, a Price Action Setup has inherent momentum build in to it. The higher the quality of the setup, the higher the momentum. The Daily BUOB showed me the potential bullish momentum.

The left eye of the weekly PB tends to act (not all the time) as nice Support level in the case of a bullish PB. On the Daily chart, this level shows the Daily Highs acting as Resistance (purple...

Same approach but resulted in a much smaller loss. As with the other trades, I was looking for the hard break that doesn't look back. Well, it looked back and stop me out rather quickly.

yes it acted strange, usually there are high momentum breaks early on mondays. You're not alone brother I lost too on that one

The quality of that setup was shaky at best. I thought I'd give a low risk, low percentage go at it. I seem to do that to remind me why waiting for a great setup is just that . . .great.

Mondays do seem to set the trend for the week from time to time.

Very nice.

Now that's a break that doesn't look back. I find that having zero drawdown on a break are very easy to manage. lol

I doubt that anybody is surprised why this PB failed or did it fail at all. the price went where it was supposed to.

This is why it failed from pure technical point of view.
1. it was against the trend.
2. it bounced from the air, can anyone see any interesting zone near the top of the PB?
3. the strength of the bounce was nothing compared to the previous bars and at last the first trouble area is clearly seen even on daily TF. it was right under the bottom of the PB there's a strong confluence on 4H time frame.

Notice on a couple of charts that the pin shows a lower close, on mine it is a higher close?

On IBFX and FXpro it was a pin bar, different brokers have different charting because of the time zone difference, this is true for forex charts above 1H time frame.

Hope thats what interested you Jeremy.
