There were very nice traps in play though, had the 1st beartrap on my radar but missed my entry due to work obligations
Despite what I said, I'm in short EURUSD 10m Bull trap in search of financial independence:

Thanks fo the heads up

Already took 3/4 profit at 1.2510, would have been a good FTB setup too although the previous swing low at around 10:30 made me think it wouldn't be worth playing as the FLR would have been too close.

Remaining 1/4 was 0.8 pips close to getting stopped... still in but will probably get hit.

FTB

Can anybody tell me the reasoning behind these types of occurances (Chart)?

I was planning to take a FTB short on the DAX at 7,008 only for price to sail through. This level was later respect when it was tested as support and was good for a FTB long. Why did the short entry fail?

I remember discussing this long ago but obviously need reiterating.

I don't know how you discussed this. Just my thought.

EDIT: Maybe you could draw more defined zones in lower time frames... I can't see DAX chart.
