Here are some confluences happening with this currency pair at the moment that's leading me to short:
1. Price is at resistance of this consolidation channel. 2. There's a 1.618 fib extension rejection. 3. Bearish candle engulfing a shooting star. 4. The rr ration is good (which in my opinion is the most important).
Trade closed: stop reached
Got stopped out but I went back and analyzed my mistakes. I simply didn't give my stops enough room. Next time I take a short position at the resistance of a bearish consolidation channel, I'll have to place my stops above the previous higher low, even if it means having to go deeper into drawdown.
