i cant seem to work out any direction as of right now, thinking to stand aside until morning and look to buy on dips

manual:
closed [email protected] 2/3 of long positions started @1.2850 area, average 50+ pips per trade
closed out @1.2901 all long positions started @1.2880 average 20+ pips per trade

final 1/3 longs that remain set to close @1.2870 for 20+ pips if market dips further, otherwise target is 1.2934,

EA is looking to close its trades @ 1.2814 - we shall see if it hits target, i am using the final 1/3 longs as a hedge to the EA trades until they close, its a grid so can be very risky to DD if i let it run away.

i think euro will be bullish tomorrow, and possibly test 1.2950/76

the overshoot ( back & forth ) can not be the result of German court desecion spike at 11:00 gmt+3
that spike can not create that big overshoot.

there should be another reason.

price is parking to a certain level, preparing for another big move.
direction does not determined yet.

10 year bonds in 30 minutes. I think unless someone is already in profit it is better to stay away.

the reason why I shorted here is the result of the price anomali I am looking for with the EA.
still in test.

if it works I will share the iadea/logic and the EA with you. ( you may call it indicator )

normally 2/1 RR ratio should work. this time missed with some pips.
