Hey B

I am not too convinced of anything right now, the way the markets are. Things look like they may close weak across some of this late snap back which could mean more selling. I would need to see a strong close above the top dotted line to even think it's worth buying. A weak close to me looks like a guy hanging onto a cliff edge with one hand. A much stronger area for a longer term thought process would be the lower dotted line

Ah gotcha. Your dotted line is right about where I had my confluences too where I hope price can close above before going long. If it does happen it will just be a very quick take profit because I don't think it can run higher than previous swing high. You're right though in that the lower dotted line definitely poised as a better buying opportunity. I guess patience is the game here.

Hey C80,

with 50 it does not matter but aren't your fibs upside down?

I'm agreeing with you here. Seems like it's a pretty good set up (in terms of location) but not so much with PA. What does everyone else think?

I think we both see it the same way but put it in different words. I say '' the price retraced back to the %61,8th of the swing'' you say it retraced back to %38,2 fib. It just makes more sense to me that way.

As long as it works for you. But I'd still try to do it like everybody else does it. 0.0% is considered to be the start of the retracement, while 100.0% is a complete reversal to the original part of the move. I think it will be less confusing later.

All right mate. I will keep that in mind.

Hi

I'm trying to figure out what to make of the pinbar formed on EURJPY. I've been following the post for a while and stuggling to understand how to interpret such a strong S/R line. Would be keen to get some analysis on how u guys would interpret. As it failed to close below would we expect it to go up?

Or would you not play it at all due to sideways market (?)

edit: that was not actually a BEOB but the size of the bar seems to overide the pin

I'm thinking buy @ 1.0252 & close a portion @ 1.0300, bring SL to BE & see what happens. What do you think?

Hey Avanish

I wouldn't call that any kind of swing, since essentially it is right in a sideways market. Makes it trickier to trade, as your first trouble area is going to be RIGHT close. The biggest plus for me would only be the down trend since it is a lot of traffic

Hey Smad

I put some thoughts on a chart. Man I love this 115 area and it's tempting but that bar just doesn't cut it for me. I'll be sidelined myself
