1.4255​x/1.4250x
momentum looks too strong, 1.4241x/1.4234x may be last chances on this move

Look at the last vol spike, and the candle that goes with it. For the current push down, hourly just closed inside the previous vol bar, but so far, didn't close below it. Important info regarding defense of that vol. If price can't close below it, its real and is being defended for perhaps another push up, which i would like to see..
time will tell...

atm Im short but if I see shit hitting the fan I'll hedge until we test that neckline on M5. Previous H4 though is definately bearish.

you're welcome. There are only 3 things on a chart that can't lie. Volume, price, and where price changed direction. I prefer to use only what is real in my trading. Learn to use these tools and you will throw out and never use another indicator

Neal I do agree with you completely and also once again it's very cool to have you trade with us here.

One more thing, is that though RSI is an indicator, you can pretty much use it very effectively if you look for divergence.

Here's GU H1, the price made a new high, still the RSI pretty much stayed flat, had a DB top pattern. So could be used at least for divergence.

All indicators can work, and they do sometimes. But how consistent are they overall? Placing a trade based on some mathematical algo, seems strange when the markets are so complex. The main reason people use MA's, rsi, etc is because they are not confident in their trading , and look to these tools as confirmation. If the "boys" are out to get your money, and they provide the tools for you to succeed, how reliable can they be? Once you are able to break free of them, your mindset on trading changes dramatically, because you learn to trade what you see, and not what you think!

I've been to BNP Paribas trading desk in London. Pretty sure they do use RSI there. Some other things I do agree are questionable.
