Just close out my long position @1700
the bull looks kinda tired, H1 RSI is screaming that it is on full throttle

might re-enter when price has fallen a bit =)

You've almost answered your own question.

The truer supports / resistances around psych 000 levels tend to reside 2 to 5 USD below and above the actual number.

Quoting duzza
Anyone have an opinion on whether the support line I have drawn in this chart could turn to resistance? Is around 1700-1704.

EDIT - I know round hundreds are psychological levels but I don't see the effect to the same extent at e.g. 1800.

Just added a position to the account to see how she fairs on this dip.

Waiting on silver.

--------------------------------------------------------------

If you guys want to make easy money, buy dips on silver and JUST HOLD.

A great physical and "paper" trade example was the run from 26 to 36.

Now let's say you did the opposite and bought 36 and it dipped you have two options as paper traders.

A. HEDGE - This is why the COMEX and NYMEX Futures exist.
so SELL 36 - you would lock in your price and profit all the way down to 26.
EXIT. N0 l0ss 0n investment
B. WAIT WAIt wait, BOUGHT 36 - WAIT PRICE IS 36 APPX AGAIN.
NOW, you need a rise.

yes u can time the market. The "concern" or next thing to watch is price behaviour once it enteres the Hidden Gap wide range bar on the way down.

Here is an example of impatience.

I had a trade on live and on the demo up top.

It was going NO WHERE after I think 20 hours.

Long EUR/GBP

I cut the trade short (it had proper MM and RR) at a 6 pip loss.

I wake up today and there is a damn 50 pip + H4 bar right in my face.

My other Euro long got taken out at TP - look in explorer for details

If you want a piece of swissy - SHOR USD/CHF

Wait for the current level of 9110 appx to reject then enter short.

THis pair is NOTORIOUS for Breaking support or resistances and then IMMEDIATELY Testing them.

It fairs well traded on the daily which erases most of it's choppy annoyance.

I would never trade it on anything below H1

That inverse head and shoulders was so clear on your chart just posted.

Right when the neck broke the manipulators destroyed it.

Add a 21 EMA to an H1 chart and notice how when the price is trending it will tend to stay above and below the line.

Sometimes it is very easy to trade off of this alone for quick day trades.

its not manipulated teach... Imo...its a harmonic straight to 0.618 and given some timing phenomenon it was "supposed" to drop from there naturally really.Theres order behind the chaos. Chaos is the curtain. Order is the stage behind movements

It could still work, I have seen this kind of selling around a neck on an inverse before, we will have to wait and see.

Silver is caught between two downward projection lines from the high at 50.

A few more hours until the private investors decide about a greek debt cut.
It should affect the USD as in a positive outcome the EUR would increase if I am not mistaken.

what about fib's
fibs i can do.. I pay most attention to .382 and .618 for retracements and confluences with time. 1.618 important too.
u can actually diversify. Fib bar counting for time analysis... Fib price range analysis... Using fib ratios to natural time harmonies..
endless stuff actualyl about fibs

retracements are just the curtain show

Hey Kill,
On the longer term charts, my standards
Are
SMA 50 100 200
Sometimes EMA 7 & 14 / 21

Shorter term like H1 I like the EMA 21 & 7
