pa usually gets pissy around london close, ny/london overlap is most liquid time of day, don't rate ny pm too much tho'...
of course. taking trades after london close? same as saying "please take my money."

“A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

Anyone else think the 15m is starting to look a little descending triangle'ish?

Lower highs with a floor(ish).
