What I have found usefull is to open 2 charts with;
- CSS D1
- CSS H4
And compare these.

Like today, the USD is flat on the D1 [compared to yesterday] but on the H4 it's climbing hard. EUR is at the bottom of the barrel on both charts, so a save sell in my opinion.
I'm in sell EURUSD and EURCAD as the CAD is the big riser on the H4. As long as the gap between EUR and CAD keeps widening, I'll stay in the sell.

USD is climbing hard because the EURO is dropping like a rock and gbp is going down some. Other than that it isnt going anywhere on other pairs or going down. The 4H is skewing its overall strength because of the EURO drop more than USD strength. So the Daily is giving a more accurate picture. Going euro sell on everything today has given my account a nice boost. Curious to see if it continues during the USD session. I wouldnt be doing USD buys based on the 4H the Euro fall is affecting that whole indi setup.

I'm not brave enough to jump in with all sells on the Eur, but I did set it up on BasketEquity.

I have closed out my Euro positions I have a sell on the eur/aud which didnt move much during the euro session. I will play the break of the double bottom and see what happens. See if it goes. Other than that buying usd/jpy and aud/jpy. Made my money today now gonna set back and see if a couple will hit and run. Now that prices are running you can see how this system works great on breakouts and trends. If the Euro goes into a DT for a couple of months we can be all over every retrace.
