I think what bothered me about the gaps today was that there appeared to be confirmation on 3 or 4 of the TFs in the direction of the gap..i.e. a gap up on several pairs, can't remember which ones, was showing long on multiple TFs. I am beginning to believe that gaps may be filled more often when RSI directions are mixed. I will have to test that theory further..and welcome anyone doing the same and letting us all know their findings.
Thanks anyone for your input on gaps, I did put pending orders and E/U, and E/G gaps filled w/+60 pips total.. Lucky? Maybe, but it worked. Milked another 20pips on EURUSD... Good start for the week.

Just more evidence showing what we know....that most gaps do fill.

Let me ask you something. What is the major trend on your chart? Does that not look like an up channel to you? Is there not support in the 132.20 - 132.60 area. Would you really enter a short position heading right into that support area? I dont mean to sound like an ass, but I'm just trying to figure out if you would really play a short breakout given what the chart is telling you. Good luck.

i've been watching.
since the thread was started, the rules should be to watch 3 taps or bo from ' 4H '
but lately , i see that you guys now start to watch 3 taps /bo from ' H1 '
is this an improvement ?

I would indeed, depending on what PA is telling me. Everyone has to develop there own style, but the only pair that I care about major trend for is EURUSD and that is the only pair I will trade on that basis...and I might add be prepared to survive a 180 pip DD.

The rest of the pairs, I am just trying to get 20 or more pips from. PA will tell us everything we need to know about whether or not we will be able to do that. Unless and until PA does that, I would not enter short here, but if it does tell me, I will enter short and hopefully make some pips. The only pair I am "married" to long term it seems is EU. The rest are just one night stands.

Woke up to a nice reversal. Stayed in the E/U gap trade, and it did come back and I made some money on that one. I also got back my 56 pips, plus an extra 30 on the A/U I lost last night.

Florins, I can't tell what TF you are posting, but if you are looking for a BO that has already occurred.

No, the rules have not changed. We do watch 3 Taps from the H4 (or higher) chart. I say or higher because some people like to trade higher TFs. My current EURUSD trade is a 3 Tap trade from the weekly chart and also a BO trade, for example.

I am not aware of anyone trading 3 Taps from the H1 chart, but it should work too, if someone wanted that TF.

H1 4C BOs have always been viewed from the H1 chart.

Consolidation BOs can occur in any TF.

For those of you who are watching this pair for a BO trade, move to a M15 chart and you will see very clearly that support area we were discussing earlier. Unless or until that area is broken, there is no entry on this pair short.
