Near enough - the exact point and price is on the lower live FXCM chart, the renko thingy was also making a low break at that point

Never give up news!

Your doing great. It will come.... I took a short for 6 and out and on my 3rd long of the night. Your analysis is right.

That zero line still holds.....long bias.....Keep watching the 3 time frames to get a direction change before you take the trade...alot safer with the bias.

Is price closing higher or lower than something? Simple yet powerful question. ..MO

EU trade today 0.20 pips LOL, price failed to push through to a new high on my orginial entry, i knew it was in trouble and bailed at 0.20 pips.

When i was thinking long at step 2., i waited for a full rat trade reversal as confirmation of a price stall, but risk had become too much for me at that stage, so had to let it go.

Looking back at it now in highsight , i should never of been thinking short at 1., it was just a deeper retracement. :/
