Did someone else notice the evening star on 4H time frame? Is it valid? If it's not valid can you explain why? I just need some help...
You have to keep in mind that h4 candles will be diffrent depending on Your broker time zone so it won't be the same shape to someone else.

{quote} I think we'll see 97 before 98. Retest of the 97 low seems like the next target.
PA is wack. I've closed my short.

Will short again from a higher price if I like PA.

Agreed. I'm thinking of closing mine as well. The Stochastic on the 4hr looks like its about to cross back over as well.

could you guys explain why you are thinking long? I'm looking at this chart and what i see is a downward trend. I see price wrapped itself around the upward trendline, and made a new high, possibly just taking stops out.

cheers

I'm with you. Don't know what these guys are looking at

Trying a short at 97.75, tight SL

Edit: Closed out the short, waiting to see the PA at 97.8

We might see one more higher high to 97.8 before we head back down. Wouldn't expect to see that for another few hours.

I trade intraday as well and don't mind taking 30-50 pip winners. So while I see the trend for now is down, I still make counter trend trades at times. Though I do prefer to stick with the current trend and that is why I am not long even though I see it going higher.

I must have missed somthing. But it does look like it wants to go higher.

Well, it bounced. Wouldn't be surprised to see 98.0 to 98.2 short term, before a rebound again. Didn't like the bounce though, so I'll wait for it to start back down from it's roof again.

Don't know why some of you make it like we're all supposed to agree on one direction. This is a huge market and we're always going to have opposing views at all times.

Well, if you are all going the same direction I am, then I feel real bad for all the money you guys have been losing. I'm just posting my thoughts like everyone else, wrong as they may be.

In case you are referring to my post, I don't think we should agree on one direction. I was just hoping to get an insight into other people's thoughts on the market.

For anyone interested. 96.8-9 is where I'm looking to take profit. And I'm looking to go long a little lower than that. Maybe 96.7.

Edit: those levels might be a little higher, or a little lower. Depends on PA
