damn talk about good luck. had a feeling it would try to lick the lwmas before continuing. SL moved to 1.15266. One thing to note is that stochs on H1 are almost bottomed out, and also it's close to touching the lwmas so a proper bounce (not the one I was anticipating at 1529/1523) could come in play.
if my current short fails I will wait for H1 to close below Ata's lwmas first as a confirmation for further drop before shorting a pullback. We're nearing a bounce level so maybe I'll try buying near 1510/1505 with stops at 1497.
