Technically by rules the trade did not qualify because it did not make a move toward the high before failing and falling back through the open. However I saw the sharp movement down and jumped in. So I entered a pip or too late but the momentum prevailed. It can just as easily be a false move but in this case worked. That is trading, no guarantees, you assume risk but avoid crazy risk. In this case the risk was about 12 pips.

I also jumped into the CA long not a 123 trade per se. But similar principles. I had set an alert from previous hour and it was moving sharply. It shot up to +18. Locked in profit so I don't care what happens now.

Is that a "cross over" trade? Crossing back into yesterdays price range?

No I just watch movement against hourly opens. At times you can catch the bottom or top of a sustained move. But as you saw yesterday sometimes what looks like a consolidation will turn on you and keep going in the same direction.

Took the EU short this hour and locked up +5. Liked the rangy look and most of Europe is on bank holiday today, not sure if that is good or bad, it just is.

Nice job! I was trying to set up for that one, but I'm way too slow and it left without me.

Even if it moves a pip in opposite direction of trade, i consider it valid and jump in.
What exactly do you wait for?
Are you entering in as buy/stops - sell/stops?
