Here's my interpretation of the H1

Here's the H4 version (where i'm usually am now). Note the SH Up then down and the trapping volumes at the bottom

And the ultra fancy D1 pattern (dragon?), haha for me, its just the W that i'm looking at

Confluence across major TF, sure it might go down for a while (and i will trade it if it goes down), but i'm aiming for the kickass up trend that is coming

Here's the M15 chart. Look at the high volume areas (areas marked in red)

What do you think is happening in those areas (forget about the levels, just focus on this image)

and i also read here that.. they usually stay at the breakout zone of the previous high to trap BO traders... so there accumulating contracts there.. i might go short after the stop hunt.. it its a straight away downward. i will not get it :(

Pamboys,

I agree with Kwanann that we are accumulating. I don't see the M. I think it will bounce up at LO and then head south. Kwanann see it going higher. Maybe CJ can add his thoughts. I think if it breaks the trend line I put on the chart it will head down for a ways. But still might have level 3 to go. But what do I know I am always wrong

intcust, if you know you are always wrong, then just do your trades counter to what you think :lol:

Jokes aside, you have to first be wrong before you can figure what is right. I'm not saying that EURUSD will not go down, with all the pins forming, it might.

On the M15, you will just be following the candles, 3 push low or 3 push high then wait. If you want to sell, look at the region around 1.31 and 1.309, if you want to BUY, look for positions between 1.30 to 1.305, TP/SL will be 50pips either way

I'm trading off the H4 and dont spend much of the time looking at the charts, so i prefer the longer TF trades, putting in pendings where i think they might go before they go up.

I will be wrong half the time, then its either a matter of killing the trade, or hedging it till it decides to turn around.

Like a coin flip, either i win or i lose, as long as i can protect my losses, thats half the battle won :)

Kwanann,

I like your entries, if they are wrong then you might survive the turn up or down and get back to break even before it really takes off. If you are right you buy at the bottom and selling at the top. I just like my risk to reward to be at least 2 to 1 on a trade like that. So 50 pip stop I would see if 100 pip move is possible. but at 1 to 1 you have to right half the time and I guess if you can hedge (US not ok) then you can make up some of the 50 pips so you can be wrong half the time and still be up over all sort of a reverse break out way to trade it which makes sense to me. But then again what do I know I am always wrong.

Pamboys,

Here is what I get on the eur aud. I think we still need to see level three and are just now in p3 L2. But what do I know I am always wrong.
