Bearish on both the M15 and H4 charts, im waiting for the previous intraday key low of 1.30863 to be broken. Ive set my entry a few pips below as this rate also coincides with a daily pivot which is providing strong support... once this is broken I expect the rate to drop and follow the bearish trend.

sounds like your plan is all set, but I'm curious, if today is a good day to sell Euro why don't you just open a short position? by the time the price reaches your blue sell zone, you'll already be having 30-40 pips profit to easily lock-in some profits or be risk-free in the worst case scenario.

Paul's quote is particularly apt in this case. Hope you've placed a protective stop, or at least a stoploss.

Hey Raiden, wanna meet? I'm trying to arrange another get-together with 2 other traders, say end-april? I'll message your mobile.

Btw, my robot went short on that same day, that's why I responded to this thread. Locked in risk free then got kicked out at +1 pip. Then the robot went long and got kicked out at +19 pips. Sad volatility. If Ben really went short at his blue zone, he'd be tossed around by the market.

Sure! Let me know as early as possible though, schedule's getting a little packed.

Hopefully this doesn't stop Ben from posting his analyses, always useful as a practical log for himself.
Consistency above all.

Hi Paul, The reason I didnt go short straight away is because I was waiting for confirmation that the rate was going to drop. Ie breaking down through that resistance line. I do agree with what you are saying though. And yeah guys I always have a SL.. I dont risk any more than 1% .
Good that your robot took some pips... unfortunately I didnt get to my exit points so my SL got hit. Ah well.

Totally unrelated : I've looked at quite a number of systems on this site, and Paul's is the one I agree with the most !
