I drew a box round that consolidation area on the 1HR … in my box it hasnt closed above the box yet ? have you taken the trade early on that big candle ? and another question, your stop cuts into a recent candle low, is that still part of the plan ?
I actually meant to take the trade on a fresh close above 1.6305, but missed it, so I took it when I caught it and yes, that stop is correct because it is below the 2nd secondary support level. Here’s a pic: http://screencast.com/t/jUj07rsFp4H
The EURJPY is tightening up a lot w/in its space and almost creating a nested box trade, w/ 175.73 – 175.23 being the smaller range. Some might like to take the break outside of that as an early entry…or just a scalp of 30-50pips.

Like Aby…was watching a break above box…….nice to have gotten in earlier though!!
Still watching the EURJPY and it’s box….don’t see an obvious place to get in earlier than the break on this one!!??
