I am short eu after wide up bar on ultra-high volume. All subsequent high volume up bars are followed by small down-moves that don't look like testing

Your right, I wonder what happened to intel, dr G...?

Whats your intraday perspective pres?

Not looking much for any further set-ups today... it would have to be a beauty test in just the right place. EU has killed it's ADR already. We may just see one of those famous NY only drifts up another 50 pips after London close... LOL

On which TF... We may see a retrace off today's high but I don't see any long term weakness ATM in EU. Profit taking perhaps IMHO not really distribution.

Currently long after this 5min test of a trigger, going a bit sideways at the moment though.

You are right - i didn't realise how small the timeframe I was looking at was. Looks like I am trading noise.

Tom Willaims says that accummulation phase often has dish-like shape. When I look at 5M EU, what I can see are several small "dishes" - might this mean re-accummulation?

After this much of a move it's really hard to say and 5min chart is really hard to see actually overall accumulation or distribution. For big picture on Acc or Dist I like to look at 30min and 1hr charts. This is just me personally...

I would post more as I love VSA however the 5/10/15min charts at the moment are great to trade if you can sit and watch!!

Anyone know that post that malcomb put about the hourly and 2hrs... mentioned risk 10k and make 140k haha yes that stuck in my head, for some reason I can't get my head round trading the longer term 2 trades a week and letting them run etc... finding actual strength and weakness.

any help for longer term?

I take some trades off 1hr and 4hr from time to time but am still working that out myself... Most of my trades are intraday off 5 and 15min.

The biggest thing with the longer timeframes is being there when the signal happens because if you miss it... well it's gone.

Malc I believe is actuaully using 12hr charts as well... 400 pips a week off 2 hrs chart time is what he aims for... that is my goal as well as intra day trading is waring me out since I also work full time.

Yeah exactly... I find that the 5/15 is working well. But with work kicking in It's starting to take its toll concentrating on two very separate but equally stressful things would give me a heart attack at 22!

So looking at H1 and H2 would work great, checking the charts every 2 hours would be fine!! If I knew how to read it properly!!

have you done many H1 and H2 trades? Could you show me if you have the time? I cant figure out targets etc, like when Mal called 14500 months ago! I was scratching my head, and now look!

Looks like it was distribution on the 5 min after all. Nice move down - most marked on EJ.

Out with 20

Glad you got out or locked in at least... could be seeing some pre news positioning. EJ 15min looking like a possible SO into that previous swing low. Down 100+ pips and EU barely 50 from the high.

I trade it just the same... look for tests into high volume areas or very obvious NS's in rising and ND's in falling markets. As for targets I use AWR and set accodingly to what room is left when I enter.

can you smell what the bulls are cookin! wooo. waking up to the smell of coffee and deep fried bears. i am loving the background strength confirming on that weekly closing above 1.41587 two weeks ago. It really just works like wonder...

1.47 and 1.5, here we come.

it is possible. i am looking more at 1.4310 at the 1hr trigger from yest, where PA took off like a rocket. if we do go down to 1.4310 there might be a possible SO downward spike to your target, which could be a nice entry for a long.

i wanted to see another this year's high, and it did. i am still longterm bull biased to 1.47 through 1.5

from here, i would like to see some testing and NS on the 15m and hourly. any entry off confirmation down below from here would be good.

and so it is true, the bull run is not yet over...

Dear Taomql4

I vouche for that also

Would like to see that test of the upper horizontal line form the TOS chart..

Look 4h chart on TG ...weaknees also

Would like to see for tomorrow an no demand or uptrust, buyingclimax into RED HORIZONTAL LINE, TRADEGUIDER CHART but would be more happy with an no demand or uptrust or buying climax into that BLACK HORIZONTAL LINE TRADEGUIDER CHART (30 min)

That means we need an down move and than an up move into that area

But i will free my mind for an idea of contination of up move also if there is any signs of that...We will see tomorrow London
