Today the signal for short came from 14:00 to 15:00.
Unfortunately the first candle was 50 points and the second one body of 74
after a high low of 106 points in 30 minutes.
That smelled fishy!
As the year low was killed - I decided to not take that Walzer.
The momentum was on the second 30 minutes. The rebound came right there.
was your stop not hit at 12:46 (low 9111.5) ? Mine was (and I am using Tradersworkstation from Interactive Brokers).
Have you maybe increased your SL pts. to more than 30?
That was stop fishing which is found usually in the week of triple witch.
Or witch week and one holiday.
I use a 40 point stop on those weeks as some special movements on low volume
might get you out.
Sorry for mixing up.
To make that one good: go short now - and stay in until 15:00.
stop fishing happens all the times (regardless if you put stop to 20,30,40,50 pts. or more...).
I just want to understand clearly your rules and exceptions.
