Look how she skidded to a stop at Cloggie's infamous .5904 line ... did anyone get in on the ride? I managed part of it .. wheee ... luckily I waited for her to hit that line.

As I watched it trying to pull back and rise again, I got in long at 1.57544. As soon as I got to +10, I put in a SL at +1.
At +25 I move it to +10.
So I got the entire ride.
Current SL at +100.
I have a 30 pip buffer.....
I'm not sure the ride is over yet, so I'll just manage this one........

I got 49 but my order slipped 15 so in hindsight I figure I got lucky that it kept going.

I agree, I think she is just gathering strength for another assault on that 5904 area which is also close to DP .. if she makes it across then 1.60+ may be back on the table ... but I will just try to follow price, not anticipate it.

ok, we got the touch on the channel utl. if price isn't contained at 15900, we challenge the top again.

... she may want to give the daily channel utl on the 4H 23.6% a tap, so that would be a reasonable target.

the 1hr chart shows where price is pulling back from

I have the same channel on my H1 and am wondering what your yellow line is. Moving Average and if so, what settings? This blew by my 200EMA

Thanks in advance!

This simply doesn't make sense.

IF we get to 1.5555, there is a very good likelihood that we do test daily support some 200 pips below this number...from there if support doesn't hold, and if you check back through historical charts, August is a selling month, you could be holding a lot more loss...

Second....
IF historical charts fail, and all we are really doing is a bit of a retrace, what if price never hits your target for re-entry?

I have seen a lot of people try and fail using the same strategy...picking tops n bottoms.

Really, if you...
For me it's just finding optimal r/r
I'm not selling in a clear uptrend.
1.555 is not an entry level, it's a level where I would be interested if it gives support. If PA develops unexpected I'll reconsider my chances look for other pairs and other configurations.
I fail to see why some of you are so eager to fetch every move, there are millions of them.....

I stupidly still have a short down there on one of my accounts.................fortunately with a small pip value but every trade counts.

okay. thanks. I saw you trade options on your profile... So you believe the defenses on that level are growing thin? If i am interpreting correctly?

It broke a trendline so it may go near 1.6.

that's right... those options survived by a single pip (1.5999 unbelievable!)

there is also a possibility that they're close to expiration...if you recall the range started just below 1.60 early last week...
