Btw you trade the m15?
Thanks

Yes only the 15min , look to other timeframes for other clues... pins , s/r zones , round numbers and MA`s

I seen the RRT on the Usd/chf entered there , then they spiked it 1 more time so I put another position on their , got 50 pips game over :) I have circled were I should have exited but 50 pips is plenty.

Notice too all NY reversals .

Like your first scenario better. USD is showing signs of slowing down and GBP may continue to turn around. Possible scenario is shown here. One thing to note with this pair is that the UK has, like Japan, indicated they would like to see the GBP lower to make it more competitive with other currencies. We will have to see how that translates over the coming weeks.

Also looks like stop hunts at each level before moving up. Generally want to buy the stop hunt in an uptrend and sell it in a downtrend.

Chf is a tricky pair, they like to fuzz it up with all sorts of patterns. My entry was basically trading the small SH where the Tokyo guys indicated their positions, SH down to trigger the short BO traders. Expected a SH up to kill them and catch the long BO traders before going down for a finale finish on Friday. Guess the fox decided to keep it interesting with the news over the weekend and bring it right back in the middle, get everyone trapped for the weekend.

Be careful though, that trade you did is the trip up to trigger the long BO traders, could have gone bad very quickly. Too bad I was spending family time, else the pins would have indicated nice entries long

Thanks for your advice

My thinking on this was 2 days of drop from peak high , this is the 3rd day and also a Friday
They have been dropping for 2 days buying all the sell orders , time to get it back ,This was the same for all the Majors.

So I am still trading stop hunts :lol:

You are right a great trap has been set for the weekend both longs and shorts are trapped

I think now maybe this is level 2 stop hunt beginning of level 3 tomorrow , of course could be wrong again :D
