3 Tap PLUS break of support at 3655

Could be 100 pips here... maybe a thousand. Been many years since we broke this support level.

Swing traders wait for a close of the longer timeframe candle below 1.3650.

I'm in at 3651

Understand. I found both GBP & CHF are rather capricious. Put the 2 together, then you need a v strong heart. What do all think?

Bless!

All RSIs UP, but PA is standing almost still. Hate that Currently at minus in all BOs, i think they will not be continued until New York start.

Hi guys..

I understand the bo and trend trade, but can someone tell me what the gap trade is?

Lawgirl.. btw, thanks for "never regret the pips you didnt get". Im definitely keeping track of that voice calling me a loser everytime I let pips get away. This is right up there with "never try to catch a knife by the tip".

It probably depends. Example: GBPCHF bo just now. Whoever shorted with a tight SL wld be stopped out before price moved in his favor .

Sorry for being nosey

Bless!
Far from being nosy you just made a kindhearted contribution. But I must let you know we're talking about breakouts. If a breakout fails, it becomes a "fakeout" and causes enormous pressure to bear on the opposite side. An SL that goes further than the other side of break + spread is unnecessary give back because it must be taken out. That's basic breakout rule anyway.

Peace

I see a lot of potential breakouts on the 4 hr charts today depending on the market continuing to rally. Too many charts to post, but I'm watching potential long breakouts on EURUSD, GBPUSD, GBPCHF, GBPJPY, EURCHF, EURJPY, CHFJPY, and AUDUSD. BO shorts include USDCHF and USDCAD. All pending RSI alignment. So a lot may change and none of these may breakout the way I see them right now, but it could be an interesting day. Any opinions or feedback is always appreciated.

Watch out, this afternoon there will be some news about Ireland and Portugal who are in an economical crisis, I do believe this will influence the exchange market and more in detail the EUR positions!

Little off topic, but anyone know off the top of their head if MT5 has a 3 hour chart? I use it on Oanda and really like it.
