THANKS, DUDE! That's gonna be a big help while I try to get this figured out.
P.S.: Side note. Had a light bulb go on. I have a link where you can download a PDF of the ultimate guitar chord chart. When I get a chance, I'll dig it up and pass it on via a personal message. Keep strummin' and bummin'.

not chart wise, but feeling wise:

I'd short usd/chf instead of eur/chf; and ok, there's a pin there too.

but that if, after filling the gap, it'll break the nose of the pin. Till I don't see the gap filled and then going back down, I'm on the sidelines(or, ok, long gbp/chf...).

basically, I want to see it go to .818, then I'd look to short it if it goes under .814 if I'm awake and can asses the situation(don't like the current week at all, so not willing to leave stop limit orders)

That's a problem you'll always face trading near the Friday close.

Your trade wasn't only vulnerable to thin volumes for all that was left of Friday, its also vulnerable to gaps and thin volumes on Money open.

Clearly I would never want to hold my intra day trades over the weekend unless I was well protected and/or comfortably in the green. taking a trade near Friday close is out of question.

BTW what prompted you to go long? I don't see you taking the break of the BUOB nor a retracement of it?

thank you ghous. I traded on friday ,just because i think the support zone on weekly chart will give price some REACTION. and you are right ,orders on friday is more dangerous than usual. It is my luck .

and 0.9580 is my target point on daily chart , if i am still luck.

thank you for sharing me your ideas ,my friends .good luck.

relatively small Pinbar.
4h candle closing when?
very near potential FTA (1.0840-50 area), but with trend IMHO, plus potential break out of the range, so let's see.

by the way, there is no divergence, if that's what your lines imply. (price & indicator both making higher lows)

Hi sc,

What is your trading style? Daily/Intraday - price action setups only or touch trading etc as well. General thought process? It would be useful if you can briefly outline what you can.

What is your trading style? Daily/Intraday
i can summarize it as experiential-discretionary, unorthodox, but evolving.
'Experiential' due to constant chart watching & trading;
'discretionary' because im flexible with my entries & exits;
unorthodox because im out of the box, aggressive-audacious;
'evolving' because i continue to improve&refine.

since i can monitor charts almost all day, i trade from M1-H4.
retracements, breakout, momentum. i dont trade PA setups/touch trades per se.
my style is an aggregate of almost all seniors here, but mainly raczek & J16 (more affinity with rac; i think rac is James16's 'aggressive'/'younger' version)

hope i made sense

please send me that indicator

on the contrary, i think... if there are few people here, it's probably because:
a. most are trading/studying/busy;
b. it's a Monday/weekend

im not sure, i havent tried the latter. (the former... i tried years ago)
my guess is 1 of the 2 plots only the divergence lines/arrows, but i could be totally wrong. so try them out yourself (or PM Pinbar & Phanti)

Took this trade on the Sunday open. It turned out pretty well. This is my 3rd trade for July, it's been a very good month for me. Old me would have been on trade 100+ by now, likely with a negative equity curve for the month, and a pissed off wife (not for the money lost, but for the time spent trading) . I feel I have finally conquered my overtrading bug, it is a wonderful feeling. Big thanks to this thread, the PF, and its senior members.

Story for the trade is on the chart.
