In my years in this market I have watched price come to pieces like this at the close of week when many so-called big boys have exited or are already exiting their week long trades. Is it that the cards are sometimes stacked against the favorite demons? Well, whatever!
Finally I got good opportunity to grab basket-full of pips and pippets.

Have a creamy weekend all.

You too PC2. As many trading houses will be closed next week, this appears to be the last opportunity for hedge funds to grab before their annual reports are due. But we prospered from it...

Just a reminder that we diehards will be looking for gaps at market open on Sunday/Monday. To review how we trade gaps, go back to page 215 of this thread post #3222.

Analysing a forex chart is much like analysing a legal program...you go from the broad to the narrow. In law we go from the general legal concept--the broad-- to the particular facts and issues at hand--the narrow. In forex we go from the broad (the weekly or montly chart) to the narrow the H1 chart.

For purposes of analysis I am using the EURUSD chart. Starting with a totally naked weekly chart, zoom in so that approximately 5 years of data is on the screen as below.
