this would be #5.. we got a mofu.. to pass.. under us. we are out the sausage factory. but the mofu will help it catch up. we need a long candle below it.. to have a smooth ride lower.

Thanks Gator,

Wasn't sure the method you were using to get your levels. I had daily fibs drawn and had the same # (3055) was just checking to see if this was what you were looking at.

Home from work today and had a chance to spend some time in front of the computer, doesn't happen very often. Usually just a few minutes here and there so I'm often just a lurker. Sorry for the newb question as I know that is not the intended purpose of this thread.

after each complete target on chart we normaly slip past the # a little.. then retrace above it.. this is normal.. the pa has marked its territory already.. like a dog pissing on a tree. it wants to go down.. the completed target # becomes st soft s/r.. the next one targets 3014..
3055 is another method.

Look at your M1 and see how the test of the hourly resistance was clearly rejected, she did not even come close and see how the 6 bars following the try gave you the signal for a short, the following test of the daily TL would have given you confidence to stay in the short and the failure of the hourly support level would have given you the first indication to cover your short.

You can now see how the hourly support is acting like a magnet to the price and there is no clear rejection of it telling you to forget about buying this one right now.

A...

Still stuck in the support zone (after the customary fake 'n shake) anyone trading this not already in a trade is just gambling. I love these simple setups, trade the break of the daily TL/failed resistance, find the next hourly support, cover and watch the fake 'n shake followed by a clear direction for your next setup.

Wonder how many suckers got tempted on the fake, be honest now.

what a freaky area. bounce of target #4 will probably get sucked back into the mofu... now i see why you dislike these situations.

the effort to cross it is there...

I wouldn't worry too much about that too much, the "intended purpose of this thread" if you read Post #1 really wasn't very lofty to begin with.

Al poor ole snprr wanted was some advise on how to trail his stop, and a gazillion smiley and spam posts later, here we all are...

Imagine that.
stop spamming.

early in a move sucks.. there are many more variables. 200 ma is at the current low on the 5m at 3047... then open ground except mofu (fibs) mostly..

Am just trying to reinforce the benefit of keeping things simple and looking at areas of support/resistance, hopefully my sarcasm kept a few out of silly trades shorting the fakeouts of major hourly support levels. Maybe others will look at charts in a simple manner now. Wishful thinking probably, the Indies are king here.

Just for good measure, let's fake the top. Any takers?

yeah i got mine.. i locked in.. but you never can turn your back on the mofu.. we never completed #4.. the only way to cross a mofu is momentum.
Europe is closing. maybe this climb will give us momentum.

If you look at the monthly chart you notice wicks from the previus major down turn and wicks on major up turns, I count at least 300 to 500 pip pullbacks before the trend continues:

we had a big rally overnight and 3000 held nicely. From what I notice from staring at zones, that a push up like this is usually called to further increase as the pullback happens. maybe to 1.32, then 1.33 but overall down.
Know when to hold em, Know when to fold em!
