When I look at my daily, can't help myself but see the 6420-25 area as an important intra-day break point.
Perhaps a good area to short? We'll see, I'm trying a small NY long on m5.

You do know break-points are called that because they get broken sometimes

In that case I see 6500 open for grabs.

You closed a 6380 short at 6420? To make up for a loss?

Something's not right there.

No, I mean I lose yesterday, 4 lose trades on a row and that's terrible, I guess I will never trade at Monday again, sorry if my words make you misunderstanding

Today I open 3 orders @6380 and closed @6420, make up for the loss yesterday. For now will wait for New Home Sales actual data released

So it was a long order @6380, not short as you said. Big difference between those two

Spot on

I sold it - not the number but a clear 'supply touch' PA on M1 got me in... closed part at the channel TL, rest running with be..

decided whether to close at this point & buy, maybe a wrong decision but don't want to buy into resistance.. time will tell and news will help perhaps. anyways, done for today.

Lower supply consumed by previous moves, now @M1 chart: exhaustion, the dojis (the PA is very slow, almost frozen).. and no-lookback reversal.

The best trading tip I can give you and which helped me to survive > 25 years of trading is as follows: “Never use more than 2% equity risk when I place stops.” For example, if I have 4 positions and all stopped out, I will lose max. 2% of clients account. So the stop level is important and so the number of contracts .If there is high volatility and a high daily range, than my number of contracts are smaller. If there is low volatility and smaller daily ranges, than my number of contracts are bigger. At any time, being stopped out in all positions, I will lose max. 2% on equity.

Just back at desk to update charts after own session ended some hours ago...Price runs up to Weekly R1 pivot (@/around 6420) which is in that previous 4hr/daily swing hi zone leading up to 6442 creating it's own fractal swing hi on 1hr now ass price drops from there, so far to the 50% of the 6321-6421 (current daily hi) move where some demand has been enountered.

Above here :

6452-71 previous 4hr/daily swing hi zone
6480-96 previous 4hr swing hi zone
6520-46 previous 4hr/daily swing hi zone inc 76.4% 6746-5779 @ 6516 @ Weekly R2 @/around 6546
