Well crap - I probably should have taken profits on the spike above the HOD but I decided to move my stop up instead. I closed at 2571. This is around where I should have re-entered after closing...

This one took some patience. I was pissed at missing the longs from 2550 and could have been less patient. I waited for price to get back to my 5m 20p EMA and stabilize to buy. I think the market...

Going to get long here at 2300. I think the euro has some upside left before it falls more substantially and as pedestrian as it is I think 2300 is an important level to lean on. I am going to risk...

triple top pullback?
Can I get some opinions on this local top at 2340 or so being the high in a triple top pullback (in a daily downtrend)?

Different markets have different trading hours and different "activity periods" (i.e., what hours on Globex they are most active). For instance I trade mainly soybeans (ZS) and I use an IB of 15...
