Nice 100 pip trade off of the hourly... That spike down earlier almost got me.

Oh well, wicks don't matter, only open/close.

Edit: Looks like the bastard is giving out more free pips without me. hmm.

retrace and bounce off the W pivot.

There is some unfinished business below the pivot. I don't think it will do it, just saying... Keeping an eye on that. By unfinished business I mean the bars are not interlocked...

Could be. I'll need to see the hourly give way to bears first though. Could just be as simple as a close below a previous bars open. There is a high probability that we will be back to 2755 again anyways before completing the upmove retrace.

That would close the unlocked bars, but that's not a rule... It does look like a plain break out above 2800 to me...

I have but I like to see the PA and price patterns around dustbin levels,
the normal candlesticks are easier for me to read

Agreed as well. I wrote an EA once off of HA candles... was interesting, and actually performed somewhat decent [read: didn't blow account]. But still, nothing i'd ever put weight into.
