{quote} stops +50.. its moved 200 pips higher so far. not a flashy way to trade.. but {image}
4h closed above 2543, not a bad sign. i would rather close the week and month above 2575. now in the shorter tf, closes above these 2 may be early bull traits. early yes. but its all off the possible bottom that the norm had at 2346.. since close is above 2543, it may act as some sort of support st. it may need testing, it may be weak. because 2575 is not so far from it.. only allowing 33 pips to wiggle inside.

so far i missed eu 1.0620 for any rally point to consider a L for me personally...

e/gbp also probably is drawn lower to .810x area. for the eu to make 1087 or more. with a eg attraction at 81xx. the g/u would need to move higher toward its norm, around 1.5 or 2500 pips higher. between eu and gu, to me gu has more potential for the greater up move. verse 1400ish on eu.. at 1.2

ps speculative. i reserve the right to be full of shit.

if i was scared at the sight of blood.. i would tp some here and maybe reload 2460ish area. if it grinds 2460 may be a decent risk short tp. "if" is a big word. R/R wise the risk is limited comparably. i hold my long because on a bigger chart its the same trade with more potential, and i already paid the risk..

Gator, when you are saying "paid the risk", do you mean that you had already closed part of the position in profit bigger than the eventual loss if the SL would have been hit?
Or you mean that the SL of the position is moved to profit?
Thanks

look at a week chart (red).. look at the current cluster.. note the higher week close level it should be 2543ish.. note where the st support is atm today.. its in the post.. now do the same on month....spend time looking at closes...like a H and L. they have mid points.. one should know these and observe for free.. charts are past records.. u can go back years and check if what was indicated years ago happens years later. when u get some recurring logic. u can find a pattern of where s/r may be.

blue is the next cluster, red not really a cluster but has a high green candle to watch

Thank you. Helpful.

I see a possibility the current leg to extend for a new high above 1.2706, but below 1.2746.
Then probably back again to 1.2346 and may be even down to 1.2201? (it still looks to me that this smaller norm is missed...)
