Trade 3 CANCELLED
Reasons:

1 hour in 8 point channel around pivot 131.42. Too long

2. Never reach oversold RSI, neither move up enough to discard the trade.

Random comments:

1. Could have gone for two 5 pips trades 15:04 and 15:48 (all confirmation ok except RSI that was really close to oversold). With 7 pip profits already taken today I should have taken the risk ... Or maybe not ....

Random comments:

1. With one winner, one losser and one half failed and half didnt pull the trigger on time, I will wait for a clear entry in the next hour or so otherwise call the day.

1. Crude Oil Inventories (-4.8M). To be honest I dont know how to evaluate the short term impact of this negative news on the eur/usd pair.

2. But Seeing all charts, it seems that usd/eur is overbought in every one of those M240, M60, M30, M15, M10, M5, M2, M1 and the next pivot point comes at 131.65, plus a M10 MACD divergence is forming.

3. I am not sure in the short term to go long.

Status: step aside

18:25 GMT +1 (131.52)

1. Nice triple M10 MACD divergence forming but US aproaching to choppy hours.

2. I step aside for 2 hours and I missed a perfect entry point to go long again 17:00... i guess i was scare of the overbought signals in all periods.

Status: About to close but i´m going to give it a try to see what happen with the M10 MACD divergence
