Quoting Islander
I waited after price turned off the DOL and then sold the 1 min LH, exiting after the small red candle that followed the wider red marubozo - this was the 50% retrace.
Very nice Islander that was a little early for me, we had a nice lh sell below 5350.

Oh I found a nice prev day high, low indi and Royston added LO onto it, clearly shows how nice your set up worked. This is the 15 min chart.

Oh I'll post on hl/lh thread, see above chart a days range indi and it shows the potential high/low for day on your chart. Now if someone can add some kind of line for the range might be nice.

A new low on time in mid FH in a 15 min doji and 5 min hammer.....smells of a stop sweep prior to a rally - I'm long.

I closed one of my longs after LO when price stalled, holding the remainder, looking for the DP / 5400 / 59% retrace area

Closed the remainder after the second attempt above the 5375 area failed.

Plenty banked and a Friday with data due I'm taking a coffee break...

Nice...pips safely in the bank....

Well done noticing the pick up in volume as the Frankfurters started pushing it down to buy at a better price....

Hi Vantage,

Is it possible that you could include a link to your other thread in your signature ?

Don't know if you can but it would be handy

Arrows are potential entries and ticks potential exits.....a very profitable morning.....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

I should also have put a red arrow on the LH after the last red tick.....

GM - after four hours sideways in a narrow range, cable tested its R1 at 5416 and then gave a clear 1 min HL signalling a buy which then ran up ~50 pips to 5 pips below last week's high......a nice start to the week and I've also banked pips off a cheeky short

Here's some news service info...Today is scheduled to be last day of British Petroleum buying for dividend purposes ahead of tomorrows Q1 results announcement.
(At writing cable up at 1.5450. Possibly BP interest either going through or being front run).......

There was a second ~40 pip bounce up off the fast ema into a new high ~the 5500 level just after LO. With todays range now ~120 pips, will this be the high......TWT

So far the high was in a 15m higher volumed shooting star.....I've taken an initial sell with a tight stop in case R3 at 5521 comes into play....

At the same time, this is a breakout above last week's high, so I wouldn't be too optimistic about the short side without a break below. Should be some buying there before a break, I'd expect.

I took some profits as price stalled ~the earlier high of 5467 and then sold again when it only just moved above the fast ema and closed again just under the 5450 level .....€s also found support at its DP.....

The slow ma (5m 30) has now rolled over and as long as it remains negative I'll continue selling.....

The bounce was more than I expected - a little over the 61.8% level ~5475 and I missed buying the 1 min HL....http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon9.gif, but sold again, my last trade for this morning....stop now to +10 and will let it run.....the support around 5450 / MR2 may hold until the US session.....TWT......BFN
