Sacrophage wrote:^I am just learning as well, but this is my take. It hasn't broken through resistance and risk looks like the 3 semafor on the downside, so, no, I would not go long there. Long from cone bottom or below if possible, and vice-versa, with a tight stop. Cone is just a resting place until the next breakout, so be ready to cut if you're wrong.


Thanks, Sacrophage. Your comments are valuable. I shorted GJ at the top of the cone.

Trade what you see.

EDIT: after a "continue" a long candle will be "overbought"/"oversold".

I also got lucky with that sudden 1 figure drop in GU. Seems like it was due to a Brexit poll result putting leave campaign ahead!

I took part in a Brexit poll. I told a lady on phone that I will be voting to leave, but I am still undecided. :wink:

Updated - took an SL on GJ -1%, trying again for a long now...

EDIT: that was fast, 1% clawed back with 2X leverage - exited and re-entered risking 1% with SL at 159.75
