is the HS in h4 still possible?
As a chart pattern it is invalidated, for me. But still, a break of 1.59 points very bearish.
Gone to a better place

Why are you selling at that price? oh my..

i think you might need to learn support and resistance..

Impulse trading is not good my friend, learn to use PO, mate..
I think that was better to sell in top support area than sell in below support area. SL will always there.

Perhaps I need to repeat the 2 main things that are crucial in trading.

1) Price
2) Time

Price - It is important to know what your price that you want to enter the market because from price you will know your risk and expected DD so you can position the size of your trade accordingly.

Time - Base on the TF you're trading, it is important to know how long you intend on staying with the opened position so that you won't panic by the noise from the market and good entry timing can eliminate entry during ranging. Ex. price has reached resistance @ 1.6. It definitely won't reverse on the same day. You might want to enter after some consolidation at that area.

I hope this little bit of info can be useful to the newcomers. I recommend reading on W.D Gann if you might want to know more regarding price and time related to the market.

You can say a downtrend channel is a flag if and only if you got a breakout to the upside like the one you posted. Until that happen, it is a downtrend channel. I'm bearish for cable and fiber and bullish for swissy. That my 2 cents mate.

no that is wrong..actually
a flag of any sort is simply an upthurst of a move followed by range with a higher probability of a break in the direction of the pole..it is nothing more

The weekly candle has one more day remaining. At this point it is showing a hammer following a 3 white soldier formation. Yellow 5 sma retrace then up from there.

PA was quite bullish after euro rate cut for the eur/usd. Cable followed suit.Today's brutal moves cleared stops up and down the line for a possible move up.

Market Sentiment reversed to Risk On again after being seriously Risk Off, during the asian session. I wish the Greek would keep his mouth shut.

Ranges have held this week so far.
one could say this is a pole..

3 white soliders followed by a range..a break to the topside..??

It's true to sell highs and buy lows. but you are selling at about 1.6 which is a support... i don't know how I can describe this. Ok, I try my best.. 1.6 is regarded as previous resistance turned support due to the breakout of the previous candle, though 1.6 might be a good entry price but you must see the price breakout and confirmed first, in the other words, entry at breakout and retest pattern.

Since there's indicision in 4h, i'm not favoring to long the price but definitely i won't short @ 1.6.

I'm sorry mate, i'm not that good in english, and i hope you can understand my point.

Hi

I don't see how any one can possibly have any kind of meaningful forecast (if by forecast you mean what is going to happen with price over a given time period) on any day let alone this day with big U.s NFP data due and what is happening in the Eu/ Greek situation etc... just follow the money that's all you gotta do.

So what will happen with today's U.s NFP (etc) release ? (1230pm gmt)

Well firstly, it's not what it used to be in respect of markets' reaction that's for sure. Secondly we are 'thru the looking glass' and black is white -and- white is black, or at least it can be - ie the reliable old reaction of $ strength on a good number and $ weakness on a poor number has been skewed by the risk-on / risk off thing...ie a good number shows U.s may be growing so there may be a better apetite for riskier assets and $ sells-off as money flows into other such asset classes, and vice versa.

The main variables are of course the headline number itself, the private sector jobs number, and un-employment rate ; their relationship with the previous number, (any revisions to those,) and of course these numbers' relationship to the forecasts.

Add to the usual 'circus' the febrile atmosphere re the Eu/Greek situation and ongoing G20 and anything (or indeed nothing) can happen

For me, I will be looking for a 1min (+) momentum thrust break out candle close on the immediate release to trade (given certain repeating circumstances) -and/or- The buy the 1st lo/sell the 1st pullback -or conversely- sell the 1st hi/buy the 1st pullback classic news/data play - should there be a definite direction established on it's release, and the repeating set-ups I look for actually develop re that play. Should none of these develop I will stay flat.

Whatever your approach - Good Luck. Anything can happen and I personally don't care what it is - just as long as it does.

Outa here till NFP
