{quote} Whilst it may retrace up a fair way, based only on my limited experience I tend to favour a move down to around 169. 5 next. But, frankly, more data is needed before it becomes clear.
Its had enough time, methinks. While any break and hold now over 171 would be bullish to new highs, and while it can still break up as long as it remains over about 170, the formation in which it sits has an apex ROUGHLY around 170.8. It's spent most of its time under there (as opposed to the high side) so I think it will break down fairly soon. There may be a bounce at around 170, but after that a fall down into the low/mid 169 area or even 168x.

I expect three large bounces in all before it completes. The move to 169ish should be the first, but it all depends on whether it's correcting for a complete and finished move up from 164, or only part thereof.

In the first instance, it may eventually move down a long way (61.8/76 etc) , but in the second instance, probably not under 168.5

We have a lot of non-English speakers on these forums. I thought what I wrote was reasonably clear and logical.

You're not dumb. A simple fact is that news NEARLY always takes a pair in the direction of the trend.

Well that just the most peculiar thing I've heard in a while... So basically the meaning of the news doesn't matter only the magnitude of the surprise (for the most part). By trend you're talking in a 4 hour-ish time frame right? Thanks for the help!

I cannot explain it, other than to repeat what I wrote earlier. There was a discussion here some weeks ago about the same topic. Most news will, surprisingly, take it in the direction of the trend but if a correction is due, then news will start the correction. Even NFP will do the same, except that NFP will sometimes quickly complete and then reverse the trend - which makes it hard to deal with. Thems the facts.

Anyway, GJ is now cleared for new lows

reversal ? {image}
It was a near perfect reversal - now we rest at the lower apex. It SHOULD bounce here, but if not, it's really bearish

So far we got to 169.70. Maybe a small bounce, but to me it still looks bearish for now.
