SIGNAL: SELL 🔴

Entry Zone: 4396–4403

Stop Loss: 4412

Take Profit

• TP1: 4382
  TP2: 4370
  TP3: 4358

  Do not chase SELL at 4386. The higher-probability execution is a retracement into 4396–4403, followed by M5 bearish rejection/BOS. This satisfies the confirmation-over-early-entry rule.

Explanation

H4 remains in a powerful recovery from the August lows, but price has reached an important historical reaction region. H1 shows the immediate weakness more clearly: after liquidity above 4430–4450 was taken, price rejected sharply and started producing lower highs.

M15 confirms deterioration below the 4400 area, while M5 has just delivered bearish displacement through the recent 4393–4397 support. That broken support can now act as resistance, making 4396–4403 the preferred breakout-retest zone.

At 1:48 PM Malaysia time, this move is occurring before the stronger London participation window. Rather than selling the current low, the better scalp is to wait for price to retrace and demonstrate renewed M5 selling pressure. A rejection from 4396–4403 gives room toward liquidity below 4382, then the 4370 and 4358 demand regions.

Alternative Scenario

If M5/M15 reclaims 4403 and closes above 4412, the sell thesis is invalidated. A successful retest above 4412 would instead expose 4425–4435, potentially followed by another test of 4440–4450.
