Theres also that really long wick in a candle just before that last one. It typically tells that there is going to be atleast temporary change in trend. So not a valid 3 tap for me atleast.

Good job, that tail means there weren't any sellers, and buyers were pushing it upwards.

The wick in that last candle is also interesting. Because it is significantly shorter than that previous one. I have noticed that if theres two wicks as they are in those last two candles with no candles between them the trend almost always turns atleast temporarily to opposite direction. Candles have to be closed or near it of course. Thats a kind of double confirmation to forthcoming trend turn. A trade what you see type of thing.

...One needs to also look at the probe to the upside on the same candle.
Beware of ye ole "pump n dump".
Books are being squared on the way up, as well as on the way down.
This is how the "deep pockets" fill their books...working both sides.
Just a bit of tidbits for thought.

My policy with SL abowe/below the last swing high/low would have taken care of that , but I probably wouldnt have taken that deal also because SL would have been huge. BTW it turned just after London close.

I made about ten trades today, counteractive trades and scored on all of them. A very rare event. Lawgirls sighting of three taps on the US CAD made me a real bundle. Many thanks LG.

I am not a chartist or a real computer ace, is there a third tap looming on gold on the H4?

Just wanted to try and contribute something from a forum that I feel I owe a debt to.

Thanks for this gold tip. I just checked from hourly chart and it seems that gold has recently made several of itīs moves just after NY open. If itīs going to make a larger move, it will probably do so tomorrow (3 tap or break out) just after ny open, but who knows?

I understood it was the 3rd tap, this looks like a fourth? May not be that strong.

That is a consolidation breakout, the down trendline is just a bonus

Vicky, a long tap connects on the bottom. Short taps connect on the top. Your RSI should be set to 3, not 14.
