Also, the entry point was just below the R1 @1.2800 -- I'm curious as to your thoughts on why you did enter the trade - when at other times the R1 position alone would have kept you out of a buy on this pair.




pretty much the same thing on this trade as on the EUR
In this case the GDP/USD R1 was @ 1.9038, but it looks like you entered the trade. I dont see that there was a set of bars that established a 'high' (more like an ever increasing high) and it didn't really show any strength until the 09:00 cet bar.


To clarify - not trying to be difficult - just trying to get an idea for what you saw at that time, and why you chose to enter the trades.

From the Nina word

Level 4 Signals

Level 4 Buy:

1. After consolidation of a few bars, price breaks through the last high.
2. Buy when price breaks through the high.
3. Hist_StepMA_Stoch is in green mode and goes from below the 0.04 level to above the 0.04 level.
But there are another gamers in the field today.
Starting with trend exhaustion. At least 100+ pips in majors from yesterday.
Itīs friday, no news.
And in the words of nina level 4 is risky.

About the trade, at 8 cet the trigger bar has a wich above the R1. So, R1 is broken. Enter on the next bar, but this bar opened below R1 adding some risk.

Whatever we see or explain, I think we can find some explanation to why yes, take the trade or why not, donīt trade.
But if today Iīd have to choose between the 3 pairs and 3 possible trades. I would choose the usdchf because is the most clear setup. Or, cause of the other players in the field I sleeped all day
