Hi Megel,

I was trying to get it for 1.5475 but now after this decline i am erasing my order. This not so well defined pattern on m15 was meaningless compared to overall setup on h4/h1 imo. I found myself getting scared from lots of the trades before becouse of digging too deep.
Cheers!

With that in mind, the best levels in my opinion are 1.5466 and if that fails, another attempt to short could be made at 1.5578.

If it manages to get above that higher H1 s/r pivot, then it looks doubtful that the weekly lows will be taken out before the market tries to take out the TOP of the D1 range at 1.5773.
Short at 1.5466 looking like a gift based on previous swing low - again obvious from hindsight - my favourite type of trading

Is ur crystal ball available for rent

Thanks for the comments everyone - very educational and much appreciated

Platoon leaders should have developed a clear understanding of the available courses of action. Now time to choose one and execute.

Good luck!

Hi Tom

Great stuff - abs love the analogies!!! Been watching this one closely but I think I will go for the brute force attack! If that fails then will look at the SFP-what a great pattern, seeing them all over the place!

Now have to nail down precise entries.........your analysis is helping a lot man, keep it up!

Update : GBP/USD moved up for the TL retest, so of the scenarios, strategy #2 triggered. Well done to anyone that got more or less the exact high there. Big move to the downside so far.

Hi all

Closed GU trade for +100 at 5380 - previous swing low. More than happy with +100 in 2 hours. Will be watching closely and may look to get back in on a retracement.

That area is not strong enough for me to see a high probability of causing a swing bounce.

Reading through your forum i guess is because we had one single swing on the left....you'd prefer to see more than one ,correct??

Not going to boder you anymore

Yes, I would prefer to see three or more.

The area you showed might be good enough if you had major D1 bias based on yesterdays close.
