I second this and be thankful - you are getting this for free and in a very perspective manner by someone that is prepared to help other people.

I am buying a hat to salute you 9ER.

Sure thing. Does this show it to you?

The AO is remaining low (even now with the recent spike) while price forms new highs
I think there is a problem with the way you draw your divergence line

Maybe it's the bears that are slumbering. There is a war being fought and the 1.3 level is the prize 5M bounced nicely off the 200

But you are losing site of why I am here. If something I post doesn't make sense post a chart, and spell it out to me. I am no expert, you may well introduce an idea to my head that I had not previously thought about

But it is really hard for me to determine exactly what you are saying as I have drawn this divergence for years. I can't help if I don't see what you are referring to - make sense?

Does the decline in volume say anything??

Hopefully I don't sound sarcastic - but the decrease in volume says everything. It's Friday after a big day, and an emotional start to the day. Turning into a typical Friday.Now last Friday, that was such a euphoric day for me as my trade rose and rose before closing for 217 pips! Was very profitable and a nice start to the weekend!

This week though it appears that hum-drum Friday's is back by popular demand!

If I can, this weekend I will mark up some charts and post some examples of the various trades I took for various reasons.

Let's see if I can recall my premises from trades this week

Monday - didn't trade

Tuesday: I took 2 candle formation trades (reversal's scalping lower 5M and 15M) (+15)

Wednesday I took 3 fractal trades (30M, 1H) (+35)

Thursday (Yesterday) I took a divergence trade based off the 4H at the end of the day which turned out very nice, I escaped with +45 pips (hopefully you guys took the signal I posted!) ended up +50 on the day (2 trades)

Today - got triggered in based from emotion of a news release, the original premise was divergence on the 1H, 4H. Jury still out as I am still in that trade

I'm just scratching the surface here but is the ZUP indicator telling us the bulls are near exhaustion and we should look to short? The RSI is breaking down thru 70 and AO has turned.

I shorted on the momentum just below R3 and wait paitiently for it to continue.

My concern it the bulls are just taking a nap.

Don when you said you shorted it, did you enter Market or stop order? Oh and by the way I think it was the bears that was napping!
