Ok cools, this is what I see:

To much congestion for me, between 3450 and 3350. The tops of A,B and the lows of C,D,E, reaching into that area with 3 bars B D E all closing in that area. Once their is a close below 3350 I will look for a trade.

3350 is an area of s/r that I drew on my monthly chart.

Reasons for the trade:
1) bars 1 and 2 have formed a pin at swing high
2) bars 1 and 2 are coming off your 50% fib
3) trade would be with the trend

Cools if you enter on the break of 3450 it is not a bpc. For it to be a bpc you would have to wait for a close below 3450, then a pullback to about 3450, then a continuation past the bar that closed below 3450.

This is just a PA (1,2 pin) trade at s/r (3570)

On the watch list: All are bpc. Although as I have said, sometimes I don't wait for the continuation, I jump in early, on 4h bar. I will just watch these pairs and see what develops.

All 3 from yesterday's watch list made +ve pips, although I only traded 2 of them. Ncad was too close to that s//r area, but now it has broken thru, closed below, and is pulling back to it.

Bar 1 has BROKEN thru the s/r area ( pink line ) and closed below it. Bar 2 has PULLED BACK to that area. So now if bar 2 CONTINUES past the low of bar 1 then that completes the BPC. I have the entry point, as all ways, a few pips further on. In this case because the low of bar 1 was so close to the 1000 round number, I placed it a few pips below that. If bar 2 doesn't continue on, but keeps on pulling back, then I am not in the trade.

If 2 may come's down hit's my entry, then retrace's, well then I am in a losing trade. There is all ways a risk, in any trade. We don't know where price is going.

a query.

what if low of bar 2 is lower than that of bar 1? is your entry then 10-15 pips below low of bar2? or still 10-15 pips below that of bar 1?

Whoops hit the wrong button.

On the nu chart I see bars 3,5,7and 8 all reaching close to the sr area at 6970. That is what I mean by to much congestion. Between 6970 and 6845 I see quite a clear run.

But cools, this is only what I see, and I am sure their are many people who will short on the break of 7020, and make money, it's just not how I trade.

More than once, before I got to this point in my trading, I was put off good trades by reading what was said by traders who I was learning off, and visa versa, taking trades that were losers, because...

But bar 2 has to pullback first. If bar 2 opens and carries on past the low of bar 1 without pulling back first, I do not enter.
