If 1h candle closes below 1.5600. Would you guys agree that thats a sign of the pair heading down?

Just another whipsaw... Lucky me I got my short closed a little while ago @ 1.55900

If I see the chart in 4H TF, the bullish engulfing pattern is (I don't know) being ignored by most of the traders today... The pair just can't resist to go down deep near where it bounced in earlier 4H...

If the pair remain ranging, I say we'll get nowhere far away from today's level (hi-lo)... Hope it can break free or just resume the downtrend anywhere soon..

Hope none of you guys got whipped by it since the pattern (bullish engulfing) confused me a little while ago, but thanks to cloggie, I traded following the trend channel and survived today's trade; cloggie, you are great, many thanks for you...

Don`t you think the candel in the 4h chart are pretty bearish? Two long shadows to the top, and failed the 38.2fib.

Hello, longterm long but scalping short here. I think 1.5510 is a much safer target here.

Heard in news that one of the biggest investors are leaving the market, and returning the money he has in the market to customers.
Because he have had lower profit last years then he wanted to.

Which is over $ 10b. This must be news that will strenghten the dollar? Since the stock now most likely will go down?

Think this will cause some more fear amog investors, and drive stocks down/ strenghten the dollar vs GBP ?

Hi, Oxford, Down with Flu - can't concentrate - so out of mkt.

Funny mkt no ? Not Up - not down.

You will get your Pips on short but be careful - she could turn up - very uncertain steps for a Belly-Dancer !

This is a pivot bar that confirms the short contnuation. Something I learned from an older expierienced trader.

Pivot Bar Short: In the middle of a trend a bar that forms with a higher low than the candes on either side.

Pivot Bar Long: In the middle of a trend a bar that forms with a higher high than the candes on either side.

You short on the break of the first low.

Doji/ inverted hammer followed by 3 inside down. The momentum bar confirmed the clean break, of you go.

sorry cloggs, googled it but can't find... Not quickly anyways. Could someone please explain which one was the momentum bar there? I'm guessing the 3rd one in the box?

The fall from current intraday highs, being that previous 1hr/4hr near-term obvious fractal swing hi zone (= previous imbalance of supply/demand=resistance=potential resistance) was well signalled by the bearish regular divergence set-ups and great pa triggers to 15min...shown below...price is now finding some demand at the 61.8% of the intraday up move 5497-5688.

all this analysis and we could have just gone long off daily S1 or short off daily R1 with a 25 pip stop and nice little r:r. Hindsight and all that!

Does this help. Larger time frames have more tendency to follow thru. You want them to be the same color but not always.

A momentum bar is twice the previous one, and 50% of it will act as S/R.


Hope this help!

Once the price breaks that higher high it is automatially another high. Dont try to read a lot into this as it is as easy as it looks
