The downward spike on this EURCHF stop-hunt took mere seconds to go down and up again. Colour me impressed.

EJ scalp idea ?

- Touched yesterday High
- Strongly broke asian range to the upside at london open to load longs
- Pin bar in M15 - (almost RRT 3min later - not in screenshot)

Does that mean, the low will be retested today ? A 100pips move ?

Isn't everything an indicator? Ms, Ws, 3 pushes higher, etc, etc. The more people know this stuff, the more the fox becomes aware, then turns around and bites you.

I see the game like this. At certain times of the week, the Fox makes a trap and gets a ton of people long, then he takes all their money. At other times Foxy makes a trap for the shorts and then he takes all their money. People are sheep and trade the way they've been told to, not knowing how to watch for the Fox and understand how he makes his traps and takes the money. Just like in Poker, if you don't know who the fish are, you are the fish. For trading it's like, if you don't know where the traps are, you're gettin trapped!

So, when you think like that and read this thread very well, you start to see why a M or W actually happens.

I like it, also happening at a level of previous resistance on 4h, added bonus. I got in some and putting a pending buy down below in case there's a spike.

edit - this was a bad trade, sell picture here looks strong and the buy picture is too weak
