i got 2613/14 min.. but 26 would be a fit too.
what side of 3626 will the h close?.. 3599.. would be a st LL (on this move from 3583 bounce).. if we get there then the next clue is the current high not being breached. then 3580.0 then LH and so on.. below 3580 should target 3543... don't forget the bounce for the LH each time. below 3580 opens a 3447 target.

we had a LH with the bounce to 4683.. we still dont have a LL w/o 3580... bulls had the ball last. so they still have it.. just less strong.. the mid is 3624.6 .. we are slightly below it atm..

Yeah. Flipper is thinking this is a real move in EUR; been long for over 50 minutes now. Of course, Flipper doesn't "think," and neither do the algorithms that jump on things like AUD just now. They follow.

That's the problem. Nobody thinks anymore.
Certainly does explain some of the silliness, alright.

But then some of the suppression makes me scratch my head, too. I'm convinced these pullbacks have been propped up by someone. Well, by many, obviously.

Hey, Mag, I wanted to show you a Hull MA at work. On this graph, the smoother line is a Hull of the sharper line. It has just the right amount of lag and smoothness for its job: a "v" corner on the raw line takes a postion in that direction, with a 3 to 5 pip stop. The bottom of the Hull confirms it, and cancels the stop watch.

The thing is, the Hull's overshoot and lag is small enough that waiting for it to take the position would really have very little consistent net difference.

Wanted to show it to you, because you're...
Anytime yer ready or wanting to walk me through your set up, I would love to have a looksie...

Drop a brother a line and I will open up the IVOC, ya can splain it to me in real time.

Flipper's logic is not giving up on the upside.

I took a look at an AUD chart now, and saw everything I did wrong with that trade. Gator would never have traded that out at a 10; there was nothing to do but hold at least another 5. And 01 sucked as a stop.

Good thing I canceled that stop though.

Just for the he11 of it, I'm going to put my copper short limit in before I go to bed. Normally a dime would be so far away from the market it'd probably reject, but tonight it's had a dime move already.

Since nothing makes sense, maybe it'll bounce another dime.
