Price = the amount a greater fool is willing to pay!

A breakout of the acending triangle on the 15m and 1.42108 which is close to m2 acts as a road block would signal a short position for me.

good one
you got in really early in that trade. good job. what signaled it for you? i got in at 1.4163 after the 12MA cross on 5m. usually a good momentum trade and if it goes against, will always be at BE.

Price obeyed the oversold stochastic on the 1h. I wouldn't expect too much upside though since it's fighting the 4h coming down from overbought territory. Resistance is likely to be at the channel on the 1hr.

It looks good at 4210 but I also had a spot at 4328 that eu did not get to on the last rally which is still possible. you never know for sure until they it is too late and you missed out. one thing is for sure time will tell.

That is an excellent policy. I think that I will try it. It should help keep emotions in check. You are right it is Friday anything can happen, but anything can happen at any time. I try to stick to tec. trading I get too lost in all the fundies and charts are more useful to me than trying to create logic out of page's and page's numbers and opinions. I am not saying that they are not important just for me charts and price action makes more cents.

As shown in the chart...we have finally left the rising channel (or you can call it a bear flag)...However we have entered a downward channel.....
before tonight London, probably some consolidation is needed here...
I have tried to short this pair @ 1.4184...tight sl 10 pips...

well you learn something new every day and that was if for me. Thanks for sharing hopefully we all learn from each other that is why we are hear right. Tuff loss. I bet the first thing you wanted to do was double down, That is where I learned how the double edge of the sward worked that really added insult to injury.
