reason, we just closed the h at 1418x.. bulls wanted 2420..
I think it will be next hour, just tested it. As it is 4hr close price for GMT +1.
No point to buy through it now, just mix some.

Test 1.24 as support first to get longs together.
They think they are smarter than I am.

thinking was costing me. i just blindly follow. whether something makes it over the hump or not. it didn't on the h and the 4 for me closes next h. on the 15 we got twin peaks (using closes, not wicks). since i dont know what will happen. i am at b.e. and when out looking for another. just a #s game. cherry pick and hold one till it makes cherries. close the others early.

edit ..locked in 10 pips now so its all good if 2407 holds

since we had twin peaks.. 2368 is what i need for a decent move indicated at 2298.. or the 10 locked in.

don't know about gold, as I don't trade it, but the e/u-ass-chart (intraday-version) showed it doesn't want to drop... sucker's day, though.

Hi Mr. Hatch,

how are things going? Hope all is well, especially health related :-)


Quick question:

My Dukascopy life account (SWFX market place) shows this afternoons peak at 24426, whereas demo-platforms from FXCM for example, shows 2457.

IT-Finance shows around 246


What implications will that have for your analysis/method?

Not to say that you have the wrong price, I think it is the nature of Forex that, especially in such fast markets like today, we have differences.

But that are more than 10 pips, and can lead to inaccuracy in your analysis (LOL or my)

What do you think?

I go with the numbers the charting platform shows. For us small fish it's difficult to impossible to get the "real" numbers.

Healthwise all is fine, in about two weeks - roughly - everything will be forgotten.

How's you?

Bit of drama, anyway. Everyone do OK? Hop no blood on the tracks in here.

took a nap.. s/o on all but an older s. at 2410 +2 % for the day/month
it looks like a possible run to 2571.. its non symmetrical and counter. i wouldn't long it.. i also am not going to shorty atm. (other then a scalp for either)
since we are not going to close below 2309. a bounce has more validity. if you play adam and eve bottoms. we have one. that points to 2571. (more don't mean its good odds)

.against longs you got a lower trend with a brand new low with large upper wicks to fight,. we still don't have a close above 2420.. a lower month and week close. with a single green day with = length long wicks atm. almost a spinner.
at best a st muddy picture.
