135 min chart … trend is up and last bar on Thursday was bearish outside bar(OB) that should have confirmed today by making a lower low. Instead market broke the high of the OB and a long entry was trigerred at 1119.75 with strong upside momentum.

OB = higher high and lower low as compared to prevous bar. It is bearish if close is near the lows.

Bob your trendlines on the 81 min chart are excellent. Is there any way you can post the chart as a downloadable TS workspace? Thanks.
