My channels show real danger of "blow of top" type upmove over 30.
Although short right at the moment with 25 point stop and 25 point target looks to me safe trade right now I will not short it bellow 22 for this swing trade.


could see that 1155 gap fill in next two days if this materializes.

There is a chart pattern like this that occurs about 3-4 times a month, I just haven't named it yet...

Today is such a day, anybody wants to name it for me?? I like animal names, so I am taking suggestions....

What does the pattern look like? Do you have a chart?
 
Quote from Trvlwanderer:

feels as if a lot of shorts took the bait these last couple points.

Oh that would be bad, that would be a smoke job. This is the 3rd day 1110-1111 has held. I believe we take out the 22.50 high or we go fill that 1106-1105 gap by tomorrow. There's just too much support down there. We even got crappy numbers today and yet no major drop. Bad news, good PA is typically a bullish sign. I'm looking for 24.50 to start taking a short position. The only reason I'll consider a short is because we're up freaking 7% for the month.

Does anyone know the biggest percentage gain for a month since the 665 low?
 
I am short the GBP, and to try something different for the day, instead of averaging against my position, I have now added to the position as it went in my favor.

This is my 1st attempt at doing this, I plan to scale out of the add if market continues to go down, and then keep my original position to see if we get a strong run.

Did you miss the "today is such a day" part? Here is the description of the pattern:

1. Usually starts to drop from the open, but have a bottom between 9:45-10:30.
2. From there it rallies and after hitting the upper BB, it goes about 30% higher than the BB widths.
3. From that high it drops until the W %R hits -100.
4. For the rest of the afternoon it goes sideway in a narrow range.

yesterday was the same, except the afternoon sideways part was a bit wide and volatile...

Since I already have the dragon, maybe I will just call it the gekko. I like simplicity...

IMO GBP is a buy & target is 1.6 re-test, it just bounced of 200 Daily SMA & Daily trend is up, histogram points to strength. Good luck ;)
