Actual: n/a
SPIKE / RETRACE
Started @ 1.0214
1st Peak @ 1.0208 – 1531 (1 min)
6 ticks

Reverse to 1.0234 – 1547 (17 min)
26 ticks

Pullback to 1.0226 – 1559 (29 min)
8 ticks

Notes: Small moving report compared to the historical reactions over the pas t year. Dull spike of 6 ticks that likely would have filled your JOBB. If you see the double bottom at 1.0208, then a change in direction, I would close out with a 3-5 tick loss just in case it might come down again. When it strongly penetrated the 200 SMA upward with no effects of resistance, it is obviously going long for a while with more magnitude, so a follow on long entry would be safe with an exit at the double top of 1.0232.
