Trading these past couple weeks, I've picked up on something. When we were in the bearish consolidation, we would have big bear candles and small bull candles, bullish consolidation we have big bull candles, and small bear candles. I haven't tested this yet, but looking at the one minute we have big bull candles and small bear candles. None the less, 5 minutes of bear activity is wiped out with one minute of bull activity.

I still see 117.23 as key. Needs to get above and stay above this. If it looks like it can't do that, I'll look for it to find support around 117.06, or 116.77.

116.73 is the monthly pivot, so I'd be really shocked if it fell below that...

Nice, that is interesting. Let's hope it sticks to the plan.

my brain couldn't even work out a simple pattern at the moment.

Just about holding.

I don't think you are wrong at all - and an excellent observation! But on smaller time frames, this can go back and forth so much, it can be nerve racking, as there'll be trends in both directions multiple times per day.

What I have learned, is the what you've identified in terms of the candle size, works very good to determine overall direction of price, but not necessarily immediate price direction.

For example, price could move bearishly in consolidation in spite of big bull candles. But as long as bull candles remain more decisive, the bearish move remains counter trend, and the bull trend will eventual resume.

Should bounce around monthly pivot, I would think also daily S1 right below it. Good support level...

Excellent to hear a positive day for you!

116.73 is monthly pivot
116.65 daily S1 right below that

I'm definitely placing my bets on the fact that the FOMC will bring us to 120 again tomorrow. Then we get to prep ourselves for abe and the monetary policy decision Thursday night. That will be an interesting one.
Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!
