Well, gone long off the 190.50 line as should have done instead of panicking and jumping out and in early and losing 80 pips more! Back down to 210 for the week :doh:

I'm going to hold fire. If we would have been playing this solely off of the hourly, none of this would have happened. I'm going to wait and see where this hourly candle ends, rather than trying to guess when the trend-line is going to break. I want to see the sucker break before I enter.

I don't blame you... the volatility is jumping this around at 50 pips like it would normally 5... Better to be as perfect as you can.

I'm an idiot. I just now realized that this is no where near support. TL break PLUS proximity to SR zone is required. DUH!!! I'm going to get toasted on this, I bet. Stupid mistake.

Initially, I felt left out of the continuation of the move down having taken profit at +148. I can see now that sleep was my protector, keeping me from jumping in and out of the run down.

 

I'm only demoing this setup as it is, but I was able to grab a pretty decent entry.

Nicely done, pipmonster. Yep... If I had my head screwed on right, this would have been a better day. Couple of mistakes cost me my earnings. Time to reload and smarten up.

OK, looks like we'll have a spinning top form as the latest 4-hr candle. The wicks of the candle have punctured both the high(188.94) resistance and low(187.93) support. I'm inclined to think this may reverse considering the three previous candles form a triple bottom.

 

Are you guys using alerts for s&r levels also? If I had used one I might possibly have closed at the low support level.

 

Any thoughts?

Hi there cowpip, everyone makes mistakes...

 

Question: How do you identify support?

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
