Here today to answer questions and see if anyone wants to go over anything before Monday?
I have one question.

We can see here decreasing momentum to the downside and increasing momentum and acceleration to the upside. But still price felt down. I am unable to guess why did that happen. Where I am doing mistake ?

It’s been a while since I posted on this thread. Been lurking for a while but haven’t traded, too busy with other obligations. Now that I have more time I’m ready to get back into it. Nice trade Mr. Pip! I took the same one

Nice, I bailed out a little earlier.
So the question is: would you consider price to have accepted the breakout at this point, or do we need more bars to decide?
Price made a strong move down through support, creating a falling 3 the other side of support.
But now it seems to have settled into some sideways congestion.
If it breaks above the old support, breakout failure.
What is your expectation at the moment?

I would trade the pattern completion and manage it aggressively.

Let structure guide your bias and look to S/D for opportunities.

Hi Mr. Pip !

Here is an example of GBP trade setup that occured and was very good an ABCD by your rules. I looked at it in real time but didnt jump on this trade because I saw some strong momentum on the D completion point and therefore missed this nice trade. What do you suggest then ? How would you looked at this and was it good for you also to take a long in the 1.272-1.382 PRZ area ? Did I saw this and draw the harmonic legs correctly ? or should I consider also the bigger swing above those 2 also ? Thank you my doctor

Does not look good. This is the downside to D completions they carry higher risk as you are usually going against order flow. Still hanging in there.

It is a good idea to consider the larger as well it adds confluence.

The bears show lots of weakness but the bulls are not capitalizing on the weakness. They better get their act together soon or they will lose the opportunity. Got taken out SL hit for -10.
