I just hit a stop with a little bit of profit on a usd/chf trade so I'm opening an eu short here off of my 30 M chart..I usually trade pivots and this is a decent textbook short trade with a 1st target @ S2 and a 40 pip stop for now..

I don't see anything on my 30M EU chart to indicate a pivot. Maybe because I am not clear what I should be looking for. Can you educate?

Based on h4 divergences, bull may be getting stronger and stronger. I have opened 2565 long w8ing for a breakout
And now ladies and gentleman...charts speak for itself. TBH i would prefer momentum hidden bull, but going anti trend is pretty good sometimes...and for those who thought i was crazy and laughed...He who laughs last laughs best.

Add STO hidden bull to h4 charts. Also Heiken Ashi has crossed up.. I may consider scaling out and adding later...when divergences gain volume

This upmove is at low volume and is usually followed by a drive down later on. Actually we have a bear flag on the 1 hr which looks a shitload better on the 30 Min. We also look to be running out of gas on the 15 coming to a nice Double Top. I am selling every 15 pips we move up.

Thats because we also had momentum bearish divergence on h1 which stopped outburts of hidden bulls. As i stated earlier MOMENTUM and OBV are the strongest divergences possible

I don't see the divergence, just a slightly lower low. Divergence formed at this time of the day is way low on my list of things to trade. We will see though. I think we see no more that 2630.

I believe the Hanger forming on the 1 hr is more telling. But that is just my point of view. Especially if we get a close below 1.2685

Playing with divergences is not easy if u dont know how to read it. Better stay out of trade then guess,its always better..Here is h1 hidden bear...Even single momentum divergence can be much stronger then classic double MACD divergence . On my list a divergence cue is the first hint to exit or to enter coupled with Black Widow ™

this is called lagging.

Was für ein wirres Zeug. Of course we will get a close below 1.2685 area. Pretty far away. And in case you have meant 1.2585 zone - it would not change that much as well. The market has nothing. Flip a coin - ask Krake Paul. Kaffeesatz - Cristal Ball. Even not a market for scalping delight. EURUSD ist völlig ohne Schwung und Elan - without vim and vigor.
