If you're looking at the stupid h4, they engulfed down, and now they're engulfing it back up. Ridiculous.. On the bright side, daily behaves pretty well..
This is what I was looking at on the H4 Aussie. Nothing really too surprising. Just another supply turned demand area. however, Euro.. .wtf.

At best, I can only say it's trying to find the most recent level of supply, which would be at 3180 area.

while daily is nice in all... there something else i'm looking at. candles itself can form whatever they want, but you gotta have a measurement tools to see if theres enough juice and be able to dissect it in smaller tf to see wtf is going on. you have it in your chart too.
It's what I see on daily...

This. However, this also puts it in the realm of a V reversal pattern as well.

i'm looking at the same thing with 4hr divergence.

here's the tricky part, predicting movement of the price and picking the right entry to catch the move is a completely different ball game.
as far as the ew goes, try to find any 5 waves in daily chart since you like daily so much. there is a good reason why i had to trash it trading euro these days.

I've got hammered on shorts today, but I held some longs just because but I'm not happy either. Anyway I know why I screwed up. Trying to short a move on h1 from lower TFs.. Pretty stupid..

Eh, build some draw down into the game plan. Almost a given on my daily entries... usually stops for me are 70-100 pips.
