no it is clear
5M has lower lows means up
15M has higher lows means down
both can break reverse he he
FX as usual
Thank you.

I'm sure not good at this, but 15M looks rather like a symmetrical triangle, which might be considered by some as a continuation pattern. But yes, I agree with you, it's not that important since it is FOREX and everything can happen.

Does it show that I'm slightly bored with this PA when I start to post something different than P&F?

I am flat now.....I need more volatility....
According to my chart it may be possible that we're about to move in a 20-40 piprange for the next 20 hours.
Of course anything can happen by that time, spikes of news for example. Still I wouldn't wonder if mkt remains quiet for the next couple of H4 bars. Unfortunately.

trading become illness
it is like drug
I can not take myself from looking screen
started to effect my social life.
not good.
A wording I always try to remember when thinking for myself, that I might try to push too hard on trading is:

"The real purpose of all these efforts is to trade for a living, not to live for trading. Elsewise it is just another office-job - with less security and more stress."

I find that very helpful for remembering me, why I started trading, which is to one day be able to spend little time on "work" aka trading and most time on the things I love most. Family, friends, hobbies and so on.

I'm very interested to see if we close below the 200 EMA on the daily, 1.2825. Even if we don't, I don't see us passing above 1.2875 before a big move down.

take your family/wife, leave for a few days trip & don't take any electrical gadget with you that allows you to either trade or watch market.

I would love to do so, have no girl nor freetime (even without trading..) though
