Knife Catch Long for 50 pips

Updated
Pullback to the daily ATR-ADX stop, other instances of retest of this stop circled. UWT DDWT DXY
Note
Looking to place stop buy limit on previous 1HR candle high to get in a trade, I see max downside the 50% pitchfork line. snapshot
Note
Also very close to backtesting this cyan ascending line. snapshot
Note
Managed to come down to that blue trendline. Still waiting on a high break of a previous 1 hour candle. RSI on 4HR is oversold now (bottom indicator).

Note
In my opinion this will be a larger long eventually as gauged by the attached post in the Related Ideas section. It's a big weekly level trade.
Note
Here are CAD futures continuous, possible scenario I see. There is daily decay in currency futures (and all futures) compared to the spot price but same idea. snapshot
Note
Zoomed in a little for clarity. snapshot

Broke high of a previous 1HR candle @ 1.3150. In long.
Note
CAM weekly (camarilla) S4 also helped here. Notice that the range this week for USDCAD is perfectly CAM Weekly R4 to S4. snapshot
Note
Target @ 1.3200 still in play, moved stop to break even. Half way there.
Note

Note
Stop updated to 1.3185.
Trade closed: target reached
Note
1.32000, out.
