No worries. Feels like a massive shake out before the next big leg up.

I am not quite sure how this would work from a Delta perspective, but Y = W(in time) around Nov 16th.

Same feeling -

if yesterday was the ITD 4 high which looks likely, and if we are still going to go up another leg to complete a third ITD with MTD 7 then I'd expect the ITD 5 low to be early.


Edit : ITD 5 is due on the 16th

When is the ITD 5 low due, and how early would you expect it?

It's due on the 16th

Coming in on time is fine - or it can come up to 3-4 days early

always nice when small positions turn into big positions........

staying below 6660/70 good for a continued run lower to target 6650 followed by 6400's

only a sustained push above 6700 ultimately would lead back to a short term run higher......

good luck all!

STOP LOSS is trigger for SELL under price in moment of writing.
It is pending SELL order. Look into any mt4 metatrader trading station
and you will see what I mean.
I just move up my trigger for SELL order.
Regard ownmow of gbpusd you can see - such move was expecting. It is logical.
So below this downmove is SELL trigger now (market is very near now)

The current count I'm trading is attached - at this stage I'm still planning for a move higher above yesterdays high over the coming 2 weeks or so

The game changer would be a break below 1.6249


Edit : put some more detail on chart

Addition BUY STOP (Buy pending order), BUY trigger on
1.685.

So we (I) have two pending orders. Triggers.
SELL trigger at 1.658 (1.657 I have)
and
BUY trigger at 1.685

Guys,
I am not sure which direction the pair will go in mid term. But today, 1.6700 provides really strong resistance. I will short each hike close to this lvl.
