Hi Fory,

regarding the situation yesterday in usdchf it could be said that this was a difficult decision - why?:

1.) Formal setup: There was a very minimal green bar at the Hist_StepMA_Stoch. There was a crossing of the ema50 during the candle was developed, but no crossing on base of the candle close.
--> Could be decided as a re-entry signal because of the combination with the green bar

2.) eurusd and usdchf are a little correlated in standard - often when eurusd goes up, usdchf goes down and vice versa. --> we talk here for a short entry. That means your risk is doubled when you are also long in eurusd.

3.) I didn't follow the chart in realtime on opening of the candle, so what I saw was an older view. A very small green bar could turn into a red one during the candle develops - it depends on the price movement. So it could have been that if the price went up even more over the ema50 - you even had a long signal!

4.) Looking at the same chart this morning shows another view. See the two attachments. 1. yesterdays view, 2. today the same view.
--> green bar yesterday was so small that it is not developed today at the same position!

So for me it would have been a nice trade (see it on the chart after the development) - but on entry situation it was too risky for me concerning the point 3.)
