See how that TL is holding on the news, and see how we are testing the earlier resistance again on the hourly? A no brainer of a trade really.

Now don't go buying the resistance again like you did last time, wait for the fake 'n shake to pierce through it and form as a support first, if you scalped a long of the TL, take your profit at the resistance and watch and see what she is doing.
Well it shot up to about 3124 but I didn't short it there because previous resistance was 3137. I decided I am better off waiting until I get a cleaner touch of either resistance or support, than just being a dozen pips off or so and gambling. Am I right in not taking that short and waiting to see if it hit?

a support means demand, a resistance provides the supply

As the news came of the TL and could not make it to the hourly resistance, this would have been a good shorting opportunity as the first serious attack on the TL for 10 hours, price is compressing in a tight falling range towards the TL and gave a good opportunity for a short.

Why buy a failure of resistance without it being tested/pierced/validated? As a correlation have a look at the SnP 1200, I have been going on about all day as a correlated trigger. Risk appetite is weaning.

And people wonder why they don't make it in this business, a long wicked M5/15 bar failing to test resistance is a sure trigger for a sell, not buying right below it?

Hey guys, I'm trying to decide between pivots and round numbers on my charts. Should I have .0000 .0050 and .0025 lines all on my charts or should I have just pivots on my chart? I want one or the other because with both it just confuses me. Which one would have better overall accuracy for trades do you guys think?

And what leverage do you guys use?

Myself i saw that looking at volumes, when decent buying volume still pushed the price down at the top.

Why cover? If you would have paid attention there would have been no reason to cover a losing trade with a hedged trade in commodities, just don't go buying resistance.

Stop making the classic noobie mistakes.
