Valid Setup to go long?
No, certainly not! First of all, by going long youâd be trading against the trend.
Second, thatâs a mediocre BUEB (itâs mostly wick) and it just looks weak when you compare it with some of the recent candles on that chart.
Hey Dudest, thanks again for throwing light on USD/CAD pair. I have tried to understand swing lows and swing highs but seems I am still missing something. Can you please share why it is not a swing high?
Cheers mate.

Nice spot Eugene
Iâm already in the pinbar trade. The BUEB gives me extra confidence that thereâs a good chance price wants to go up.
Cheers

Hi Farhan
I think Dudest meant that the body of the pin has not closed close enough to the swing high level, which I think you have marked correctly, (see my chart below) to make it a valid trade.
The tail of the pin certainly passed through that swing high, but that alone is not enough to trade on. Ideally the tail needs to be standing way past the swing high with a nice small candle body having closed real close to the swing high level.
Hope this helps
Kiwiman:)
Thatâs a realizable goal go for it!
Aim to [B]trade well[/B], not to get ahead, and the profits will take care of themselves.
Cheers!
Hey Farhan,
What Kiwiman said
Your marked area is swing high, but the pinbar was formed below that, so was not at swing high itself.
Had it been formed higher ( with body nearer the resistance area and tail sticking out away from said area, it would have been perfect! )
Cheers
Hi sirkay!, welcome to the thread.
Thread rule: no indis on charts please.
Also we donât trade IBs
Cheers
Hi hanzo, welcome, IF you are talking about the lastest 2 bars at the latest swing low, that pin bars isnât a pin bar and that engulfing bar doesnât engulf the previous bar.
If you need pointers donât hesitate to ask.

Hi Francis,
Could it be a 2BR?
Cheers
you tell me Superior Master Contributor, he he
Imho could be but would rather the a 2br to bounce off the same level.
Francis
Hard. Really hard. :57:
LOL, âSenior memberâ!
Junior member says it is a terrible 2BR! Part of the track missing.
If that âsignalâ was much larger than worth a thought but the trend is so bearish I would rather look for something with a better chance instead of fighting a strong trend and close overhead levels.
Iâd rather call it ânothing candleâ
Hey Kiwiman,
Thanks a bunch mate

Hey Dudest,
Thanks a lot, that makes sense now :).

Hey Papagoy,
I personally chose the GBPCAD over the AUDCAD just coz of how the immediate bars before the pins looked.
Looked to me like the GBPCAD had less minor levels to work through.
But both were (are) A+ opps in my opinion
Cheers
