It is kind of funny, I posted the above, then opened the charts, saw a set up and pulled the trigger. So, I trade the 5 minute chart, at the break of a higher swing high, or lowet swing llow. That ends up being a 123 pattern, or reversal pattern. ...

Trade 14 closed at BE Trade 15 was entered and stopped out almost immediately. Will see what it looks like tomorrow, if it doesnt close much lower than where it is, I will buy again. If it does I will probably move on to another pair.
