My toughest task now is holding myself back from shorting the Aussie.
so you are a long term bull but you trade short term?

Those who were stopped out at daily low Friday may try to short this baby now.

You may look at my posts replying to Ken this morning to understand my views in different context. Basically, I try to return to cash positions if possible but I am not a scalper. When I see the wave ends or is going to end, I would unload positions.

I said earlier that I'd fade the initial move. Thus, I'm fading this rally to the upside - with a stop at 1.0405

The rationale is simple - this is the 2nd wave (retraction) and we'll see a bigger move down, below 1.03 from here on out.

I also want to see a hammer as today's closing candle.

This is my understanding. A retracement is in the cards based on H4 reading.
In fact, this pending retracemenrt was built in on Friday. This was one main reason I unloaded all longs.

They may not know this is going to be a bear trap. IMO

It may take a few years after reading the book to be able to look at the market in real time EWC. Before that time, you may experiencing money losses and frustrations due to incorrect EWC.

It could be one's Holy Grail or a poison pill. IMO

When you understand EWP fully, you won't have to wait for a breakout to enter a trade.

Hey Ken!
Nice charts! Cool you posted something here. Something I can reply too, instead of just lurking your thread.
Yes indeed I totally agree "NOBODY knows where a bottom...or turn is...for certain...no matter how many counts they've done."
That's why I didn't joined in to the vote. I have no real bias in this pair, also because I am not a long term trader, so it would only get in to the way. I just go number/level by number/level. Like how Cloggie played the eurusd.
And together with placing pendings on both sides, I can get some pips. Though not all pendings work out fine or I am late closing a profitable run.

I actually should thank you Ken, or maybe I did already a long time ago in a PM (not sure..) Since I followed your thread and see you work with pendings on Gold etc. I started doing them too. Using historical data to get my lvl's.
Though I am not nearly 1% at the skillset you are playing.

All the best to you Kenfen69 and just hope you next batch of cookies is a winner

IMO, breakout strategy is not something I would use. First it has built-in flaws. Second everybody sees what you see. It is too visible to gain an edge in the market.

Lvl's for now to watch (same as friday)

It failed to close above 0359 the last hour. A next H1 close above 0359 could mean it will test the next lvl that I have. 0371-0373. It's an if then play you should watch. One H1 or M30 close is not always enough, so wait for confirmation.
But a close below 0359 will give 0355 as a next decider. So if that can't hold it's the next # from the line.

Upside:
0359
0371-73
0382
0386
0396-0400-0405


Downside:
0359
0355
0343
0338
0329
0324
0309

I am flat as of now. No reason to jump in here. Since I feel it's still in some midway position. Could go up, could go down. I rather wait for confirmation if it follows the short-term trend. Or take positions from the ends of the spectrum. So that's mostly seen as Counter trading, so for scalping a few, or even a good retracement. But as for now I am going to bed. GL all of you.
