I think the USD CHF weekly is interesting.

Any thoughts were you would enter.

Do you wait for the weekly pin to break or do go on today's close?

I dont take many weekly setups...but decided to take this setup on SGD/JPY on Monday. BUOB over PPZ and BRN, moved to BE @ FTA and about to take half profit and move other half to just under FTA.

Normally, when I see a setup like this I will scroll down the lower time frames and wait for some PA to confirm the move and thus can get in with less risk and more potential reward...but this is not a pair I look at intraday (I have a hard enough time focusing on the pairs I do without adding another one to the mix!) so happy to take the weekly setup....
Nicely done here LJ

The key I am always thinking no matter what type of bar or location is to always be trading AWAY from the PPZ rather then into. That has saved me the most over the years. Makes it much more difficult to manage into them.

Best
Mike

Good observation.
anything can happen.

What would stop it?
problems in GBP Kingdom &/or good news in Eurozone (whatever it may be).

Hey Peter, I'm not a senior, but I'll tell you what I see...

Pros
The bar size is good
The close is nice, although it could be higher
It protudes the prior bars (barely)
Fib confluence with the 50 & 62
Off a PPZ (1.05 that has held nicely)

Cons
Not at a swing low
First traffic area 50 pips away

I notated a pin with "1" which in my opinion is worse than this one. I took this one 2 weeks ago for breakeven once it hit that first zone. Why do I say this? Because that rejection just confirmed that this is a valid zone to watch out for.

I'm not taking this trade because I've been learning to get pickier. This is a pass for me. It may very well shoot right through that zone. It's not necessarily a pass for you... you need to make that decision. I just thought I'd point out someone else's view.

To answer your question: The conservative entry would be on the break of the high +30-40 pips.

Bonjour bluetrader et PeterPan,

IMO, if I may..............

Price did what it was supposed to do at 1 : price bounced at PPZ (last resistance flips to support) through an ugly Pin and reached it's first problem area !

Put simply, shoot window is over at 2

Just my two cents.........

Happy Easter and god bless you all

I have Been reading this forum for a long and did interact a very few times here. Still learning the trade..

Does this Pin bar on EURJPY make any sense to go long further ?

Pros:
1)Bounced off the PPZ 126.90 or 127.00 area
2) No visible traffic ahead until 129 area
3) bar is also off 38% retracement of fibnocci connecting 10/23 and 2/24

Cons:
1) Pin bar is not at the swing low, in fact at the swing high.
2) Not a big wic pin bar, though the body is closed above the previous bar.

How do you rate this ? Does this makes sense to go long from here ?
Sl below the pin bar
TF is around 129.00, 50% Fib retracement.

Throw in the 128 round number and see what value it holds

Continuation pin bars or for that matter any pa bar you use as a continuation signal is a lot more subtle than pa setups at swing ends. Hence you need to be extra careful

Buying into heavy resistance doesn't fall into my trade criteria at least.

(Just FYI I was looking for a much larger tail on your pin bar to give me a perfect IPB to go short)
