I have a question for the candle watchers.... On Sundays, there are those several hours before Asia that will give you a very small daily candle, most of the time a doji, spinner, etc. Do you guys take that into consideration as a valid one?
Nope as well. Candle patterns need liquidity behind them to give reason to why they form. If they form out of drift or no liquidity... well, not much to pull from it.

Thanks guys. Is there a way to remove them in mt4?
You can get rid of them completely with a broker like Alpari.co.uk. It depends on the candle close, whether or not you see them. This broker adjusted its closes to gmt+1.
It's probably a good idea to keep one at gmt+1 and one at eastern standard time, that's what I use.

I have started building a short position, with the assumption that the current top is the current top in the next down wave. The ceiling looked a little too enticing not to do, but I think A mentioned earlier too that a little bit more up is more than likely before the next down wave.

Risk is set appropriate and will close out and sell higher if needed. The hourly is the one that is giving me the lead, so will run with it for now.

Shorts could be valid for a couple of days depending... If the up move on friday was profit taking then yes. If the move was sincere then shorts should be worried because we're moving much higher. I guess the answer will be in the structure of the pull back. I'll be looking at a failed low to load longs... It's still technically flagish atm.. Bulls have not given up yet..

Chop suey none the less, which would also tend to show more bulls (retraces in all their glorious smoothness ).

Yeah, think of it this way.. Bulls took it up there and keeping it up trying to steam roll early shorts. We'll see. No trade for me unless I can buy lower.. There are also shorts from a little higher, so I hope it will drop some...
