Let me know what you think. I'm a trend trader so when things agree with my view of the trend, it's even more convincing. My entry on this pair was not the best but still great (>5:1 R:R), but I got a much better entry on the GBPUSD which is in a very similar pattern, but I don't have time to post charts at the moment.
Pattern is Ok, Problem I see is the entry. Why didn't you sell at D? It could pay more but that will be its second target at 61.8% CD. Put it this way, your entry point is my first target.

I saw the pattern while I was making my trend trades. While I would have loved to have soptted the setup earlier, it was taken on a signal from my swing trading system. The pattern only strengthened my conviction about my own trades and all I am saying is that I'll be looking for them (so long as I can chart them correctly) in the future. We may differ on our timeframes as well. 4 hour is the lowest timeframe I'll trade.

I have targets from 131, to 129 all the way down to the mid 119's, but will be watching the upward channel very closely for a bounce.

And guess who's short from 2 pips below that top
As I think the current leg might be getting near completion (lower line of the yellow fork, 78% retracement etc) and as it's nearly weekend I'm now watching this as a hawk on a 5 min chart so I can close at the first sign of trouble.

Nearly 300 pips so far!

The daily chart of the DX US Dollar Index future shows that price is getting close to the lower line of the white wedge, and looks ready to break below (possibly after a small bounce). If this line breaks, the median line of the green fork looks like a logical first target.
This intraday snapshot of the daily chart of the DX US Dollar Index future shows that price is currently backtesting the trend line broken earlier, after having bounced from the median line of the green pitchfork.

I don't know if anyone here is trading crude oil, but I'll post a quick snapshot of the 4 hour chart of the CL oil futures to show what I'm looking at anyway.

I think that 38.2% level will have to give somewhere soon ...

No trouble on the 5 min chart yet but I'm out anyway here at the lower line of that yellow fork and the nice round number 1.35.

Will re-evaluate next week
