hi CheG
when looking your chart I would trade Short
Hello stevewalker.

Something holds me from this. I'm not quite sure what exactly. It may be that big (red) fall when it seemed reasonable at the time to go long when it touched the trend lines or something else. So I would rather stick with longs for the time being and be burnt at ~ 1.2980 than fail to follow my 'sixth sense', if anything else that would keep me sane and I wouldn't feel guilty about not having been disciplined enough

last bar ( brics ) heading up to TL
but it is <= Lower TL
if it breaks up yes Long
but with actual formation it seems more Bear.
& this may be wright.
& I understand traders ofcourse work on charts & make desecion

hope you recover your loss soon
I had also hunted @ 2935 with 1M bar spike & exit -10

Thanks stevewalker!

There's probably some misunderstanding and it must be my fault. I'm in profit so far, what I'm saying is that I went long this morning and my SL is around 1.2980. And as we were talking the price finally decided to touch 1.302.

Nice news driven day today.
My plan and channels tell me to short this thing but it is climing up with too much confidence. Have a quite a dilemma right now.

I can understand your response
there are some type of traders here that they happy to hear others losses & when they met one they start giving advises

I am not that type of person
I get happy when I hear traders making pips ( including me he he )

1.30277 is crucial for bulls to pierce this week

a close above would be nicer

I completely agree with you on this one.

You can't blame someone else for your loss in this business. It's much more useful, as it were, to be happy for others, learn from them (and I'm not talking about a particular trading style here, but rather about successful traders' attitudes etc.) and try and be in a good mood most of the time, which, as far as I'm concerned, helps enormously.

Green pips to us all!

We got a rejection BUT very slow one. Does it want to go higher?
I see 1 poss that it will go to 40 to print a 3rd bearish div wave on macd and then down.
Second prob for me is that on 1 of my 1H channel charts the price has broken into upper channel. What is the reason for the prob, is that is came from a channel where the bottom channel line was left untouched, so I see some unfinished business still there. Right now the angle of the channel-line has brought the lower line to the price 2878, which matches with the 4H H&S neckline (if it will be a H&S). In order to re-enter the bottom channel we have to take out 2990 (hourly fibchannel-line).

Any ideas?
