its an interesting level...
in reality 2444 is probably a mid.. if the gbp had crossed the high you were looking at, i would have to change my perspective. i see it as the condom wearing risk.. a back stop.. a safety net.. even if it did cross.. we usually retrace not long after .. to a place like we have as a target.. before continuing the b/o more times then not

well 6300 is this years high, so we prolly are not going to waltz right though it, this years mid is 5768, which is about 10 pips south of your target, and has seen plenty of action this year...

before we get there. we will probably get a indication of break or not.. 4 h close in 45 min.. these moves like the last 7 weeks are small in the bigger picture.. gbp had indicated 1.49 last year. that is still valid. we are in the b/o bounce that happens in all tf..

sure, I mean whats the all time low, 1.02 or something, dont have it on my chart..


I found a low of 1.0460 in 1985, but for some reason I think its traded lower..

here are 3 bull b/o with qe and dragi walking on water. the pink ones happen.. here is proof they do.. and here is where most fail.. they play the b/o.... and on this one they made money (if they took profit). above the pink one.. is a few blue boxes.. these happen more times then not.. even with qe and dragi it happened 2 times compared to the pink 1 time. lets call the pink, the porch.. and the blue the pickup.. the pickup would have missed the pink box. and traded the 2 blue ones. the point is on any tf.. after a b/o more times then not.. we retrace not long after the b/o... the pink/blue box at the top shows a break below that retrace, and a st directional change after

i missed marking the middle blue box pullback.. its easy to see.. a long after with those pullback levels as a s/l is good r/r ... the stops are small comparable to reward in trend direction..

playing the trend that way is rewarding. so what if your not in the pink ones.. you dont know they are going to be pink.. so the risk overall is not as good as waiting.
