Beast - I missed the initial massaker but I am in for 100 pips already. As it is such a beast I did not jump in for 100 pips only, rather for some 3-400 pips as my position is also smaller.

I think that this bar will close at noon central time (fxpro). Depending on how it closes we could get some safe profits to the 1105 area.

Welcome Bobbstar. We have a brother here from the UK that goes by the name TiaForex. He's a real asset to our community here. I highly recommend his posts. If you have charts to share as we go along all the better. I may be biased but I think that you have stumbled upon the best place to learn TA/PA on the "www". We keep it pretty basic here and I hope that we can help each other improve. Best regards.

I'm pretty much a get out and hope to get back in later kind of trader when we are counter to the larger trend or ranging. I look at this pair as trading in a range right now. (daily) I'll lock in and hope for more if I am trading with the larger trend. Either way there are pros and cons. The discretionary part of J16 is the most challenging for me.

As far as this learner is concerned, your dissection is always welcome and appreciated without any qualification necessary Mr Bemac. Looking back on the monthly charts, I can clearly see your point of view. From that perspective, and with only a few days till the monthly candle closes, we have a situation where the 1.73 and 1.75 areas are not out of the question. As you noted "some" may see a buying opportunity soon. You caught me again with my bias britches down. After all, we do develop a bias based on what we see on the charts. Looking back at the last few swings on daily TF illustrates to me that nothing is settled here as we just might be in for a short term trend reversal. There is no clear pattern from the last few major swings. In Oct 2009 there is a low. Then in Nov 2009 a lower high. Later in Nov a higher low followed by a lower high and then a lower low. Finally, our last swing high (Jan 20)is slightly higher than the last.
Moving on here, I see that maybe you trade stocks as well? Is that semiconductor plant in your old home town? Looks like you have a runner there! As always, thanks for your comments and charts.

Good eye Nasir! I've been bought at 87 and sold at 8770 already. I'll be looking at this one for a longer term long now. I'll post another chart with my observations in a bit. BTW, has anyone noticed that this one mirrors the GBPCHF or am I just imagining this?

Strong looking bar for sure. I'll be watching the break of this IB closely for shorts. I see a PPZ just under the low. I'll probably dial down to lower TF for entry. BEOB at swing high is what we look for but remember nothing is a slam dunk, just high probability.
K.I.S.S.
BTW, the large magenta PPZ is where the weekly bar would break if it happens.

Are you in at 8747? If so, I rarely get in on the break of an outside bar. There is nothing wrong with it. I've missed some good trades unfortunately. It's just not my style. I believe that we are headed to 8773.  I liked the confluence at 8700.

I have been waiting for this and think that it's a good short trade till 1.0530. This is my IBFX feed but Alpari shows a closed pin below resistance. I'll be watching short TFs at 1.6. I like the bar formation and divergence. I'd love to see the 1.44 area for final TP.

Another view. This is not a trade I am taking, I just want to give you another look. My entry would be at .8976 long (50%fib) and 1hr PPZ AFTER the break of the BUOB. Reason why is that I have suffered many a drawdown and SL hit for loss on this kind of set up. It's all in the management brother. Good luck to you. I'd love nothing more than to see .9120 again.

I get to look at 4hr bars at 4,5,6 am and 8,9,10am. Thats why I trade mainly the 4hr and daily. I dont look at charts much after noon except for the daily closes at 4,5 and 6 pm. I think it's a great way to trade!
K.I.S.S.
BTW. The NZD Alpari UK did close as a BUOB. Now I'm just looking at it to see how/if I want to play it.

This pair looks good for a break-out. I hope that I'm not posting the same take that someone else has. I couldn't find a chart that looked at this set-up the way I'd like to present it. The daily pin trade short was a great trade for me. I have been on the sidelines with GBPCHF since last friday. I am looking at a possible short again. What I see is that price has been ranging inside friday's bar for the last two days. I also observe that yesterdays bar was a pin off the 150ema. I think that we are headed lower in GBPCHF. What I'd like to see is a break low today and then tomorrow a test of the 1.6793. I will likely be a seller at that time with a TP in the 1.6625 area and a SL in the 1.685 area. I write all of this with a watchful eye on EURCHF. The Euro is looking very weak against the swiss and I see a large move upward of price last friday in the low 1.46 area. A break below 1.4670 could possibly bring in "buyers" again and screw with my GBPCHF chart. If that happens, I'll be looking elsewhere.

I can't say this any better than Joel. I can just say it differently. For one thing, I'm not going to trade counter to the daily trend based on a 30 min bar. No doubt an impressive bar but you ae trading into some areas that you don't want to trade into. Here is what I see.
