[RT] Re: Bull flag setup

When previous 95-14 high was taken out, raised stop to 95-09 (just under
the up-sloping wedge line) and put an OB order in at 95-19 to exit a
tick below 95-20 price objective. Rally on 5 minute chart failed and
declined to stop at 95-09. Canceled OB order. The weaker wedge correctly
predicted possible failure of the last wedge. Doesn't mean that price
won't move higher, however I control counter-trend trades pretty
tightly. Entry 94-28, exit 95-09 - in both cases I was filled exactly at
my order price - not unusual in bonds.

I don't usually day trade, however I'm not adverse to getting paid when
I'm watching charts closely for possible reversal. Bonds should be very
close to end of w.4 correction and beginning of w.5 decline.
