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.
Thanks.I got it....

Today is Operation Assault GBP/USD :
Tom,

Your tweets really cheered me up on the train into work this morning, thank you! And then to see the Brute Force Attack come off so perfectly is a joy to behold. The only sadness is that I missed that move having decided to wait for Consolidation and Reorganisation. Still, the best things come to those who wait.... :-)

Would this be classed as a valid SFP on EURUSD?

Hi guys

got this one marked up myself .........watching and waiting. As it is one of the crosses not sure if its as reliable as the majors etc but definitely seems to be a good level. Maybe best way is to demo this one?

Agreed, it's tight...will be quick to move to b/e. Level is solid enough to at least get us kicked in the right direction.

Hi guys

Just wanted to ask if people have a general rule for a minimum number of bars when doing a RR of a level? eg 6/7 bars or is that 'too quick'?

Took the RR on the Dax today - which came back to the level after 6 bars.
Quite a deep retrace and nearly took me out but in slight profit at the moment.

I think it was a good setup and a strong level but they don't always work 100%. At least you're in profit now.
I didn't take it as the market started selling off during Draghi press conference and also, didn't like the D1 level the SnP was at.
