Update on my trading idea from Jun 24th. This trade worked out fine. I was able to pull 185 Points out of the market with a ristk of 60 Points...RRR = 1:3
I see that you are doing swing trading. If I just focus on this picture only ..... Do note that price was going up ( X to A). After point C ( 17 Jul, early European session), price started to reverse direction. There was a reversal signal to short indicated by my arrow. C to D is about 90 pips which is very decent. At point D, the down force momentum is still very strong. There is no indication to show price will reverse direction and go up.
Thank you very much for your assessment. I will be careful with this one. A trade will be taken if a reversal is showing up...no market orders.
