I didn't sleep properly since saturday and tomorrow is another one of those days, but I don't want to miss that one, because lately days have been so boring, tomorrow might be the only volatile day of the week.

Well the good news is, the fireworks don't start until 4:30am ET. So avoiding the Frankfurt fake anyway, You probably don't need to get up at 3am for London open. So you could have an extra hour and more than likely not miss "too" much? lol

Best time for it for me. Unlike this dribble we've had for two days now.

Now that my broker seems to have fixed the freeze issue I was having, it's been smooth sailing this week and end of last. Hasn't skipped a beat! ...

Anyway, that's a day for me folks. Enjoy and trade safe.

I know going into this, that this is going to sound asinine... That being said, I exclusively trade the 4 hour charts, and my 4 hr candle closes at 3am, so that is when I *try* to wake up, knowing full well I could be falling into the frankfurt trap. Its ok though. I just follow my plan. If it doesn't work, its ok. Like I said before, I only have to win 4 out of 10 to be making money. And since I started posted posting my trades on here again, I'm 2 for 2. So far so good. HDA has his "patience" key word... Mine key phrase is stick to the plan! lol

Interresting facts about tomorrow and the rest of the week. Today will end up as a bearish daily candle(if nothing changes), today is the 5th bearish day. We didn't have 6 bearish days in a row since january 2013. Now we are in a 3rd bearish week, we didn't have 3 bearish weeks(with a bigger difference than a few pips) since june 2013. Just saying...statistically speaking, its safer to be long biased for the rest of the week, no matter what charts say.

Not that you are wrong..but personally...i would have preferred to short at a high when price pullback...considering the downmove has been too entrenched and to me..its still in bear zone. A long entry would have to be a hit and run..action.
Hindsight is useless if you never learn anything out from it

Its not a safe way to trade just by that, of course, but its interresting, thats all. If we broke all those old statistics, it may be a reversal sign. For me, until 7143 gets touched again, I don't trust the bear. If we touch it tomorrow and go back below 71, I will turn into a bear, at least short term.

There is no higher probability one event PA going lower from current level then going lower lot more from 7143
I thought to share basic probability here.People fixated on specific numbers to have PA do something is unnatural way to approach market.
Natural way to approach is Price can do anything at any time.Your edge whatever that is putting odds in your favor one event happening more then another over series of trades.This concept flies over most new traders.

.. Really?? No matter what the charts say?

Maybe you should close the charts and use a calculator then. 16 days (plus today so far) of bearish price action tells me quite a bit more than "statistics" ever will. I know we're still in a technical bull trend. I know you are Firmly a bull in this trend. Not saying this one has but trends DO end. But dude, seriously, everything you'll ever need to know is in the charts.

Now, can some talking head or data print come out and blow this puppy to 7300+? Sure. But neither the charts nor statistics will EVER show that. As of now, and from a purely PA point of view, this bad girl is going

One of the very first things I learned about this business was, past performance is no guarantee of future results. I don't care if we've had 30 bearish weeks in a row. If PA is saying down, I'm short.

Anyway, just my personal view. Best wishes.
