DislikedI've posted a chart below from a couple of days ago. This is NOT a trade I entered, but a setup that looked good to me. As you can see, it would have resulted in a loss from where my stop would have been placed... So, I'm hoping to get some information here. How could I have avoided this... First, my reasons why I would have taken the trade...
1. divergence had formed
2. the pivot at 1.04993 had been rejected
3. looks to me like this is a decent pinbar.
So guys, what am I missing here? The only thing I could think of is setting my entry...Ignored
DislikedLast few days, some people mentioned that 1.0516 was the top and the Aussie was heading to 1.0366 or lower. When I started trading the Aussie, it was 0.5xx. When it climbed to 0.6xx, I thought it was too high.

Sorry the chart I put up is hard to read... If you don't mind DB, I will repost it later this evening once I'm home from work, and put more effort into making it more clear.Ignored
DislikedI think aud's rise by 100 percent in a little more than two years tells us all that we need to know about aud's high/low levels^^
Same applies to pretty much every other currency - looking at the historical charts, and if the history were to repeat itself, we could see some truly awesome moves and they would still be meager when looking from historical perspective. A move down to 0.60 from this level would not be such a big move in comparison - a move to 1.80 would also be inline with the uptrend started in 2001^^
Saying too high or too low is...Ignored
