Banana 1H
GBP-USD SHORT
Questions from the FlowChart:
The 4 questions answered:
1 - Is there an impulse move?
Yes, there is, 3 candles. Breaks a trading range down.
2 - Is impulse move climactic?
No, not too climactic. 4 smaller candles than the impulse.
3 - Is there a clean one-legged pullback?
In hindsight the asnwer is no. I should not have taken this trade. So DS0.
4 - Is the pullback impulsieve?
No, it not impusive.
Target = 3R.
DS0 because in hindsight I notice this is a 2-legged pullback.
DS0
total DS: 4/10 = 0.4

Re: Minsk T20 - Banana 1H
Filtered EUR-USD because of the big wick of the white candle before the seed. Plus there is a level that the wicks poke and have not really broken, I count 20 bars for that as rule of thumb, but combined with the big wick white candle, I want to see it really break the level.

1 - Is there an impulse move?
Yes, there is, 3 candles.
2 - Is impulse move climactic?
No, not too climactic, although more so than than the first trade I took earlier.
3 - Is there a pause or a pullback?
Yes. It's a good pull back.
4 - Is the pullback impulsieve?
No, it looks good to me.
Target = 3R.
Ironically in the same candle the SL got hit before it went all the way down to 3R
Corrected to DS0 because I didn't think of the bullish candle after the seed
