It makes sense now. The trick now is spotting these setups in real time. Gotta practice ;-) Thank you once again!!!

Thanks for the explanation, ITB. I believe your 30-minute chart reflects the price action from Nov/9th. I was just wondering if you saw any valid entries on the 30-min chart for Dec/4th. Thanks again

Thank you for sharing your method, ITB. Still studying the thread. Would you have considered a long entry on the 30M chart on the break of the high of the green candle (marked with an arrow) or should I have waited for candle close and engulf ...

Well done!!! Really impressive

Hi Harold, Nice to see you back around... Would the yellow ones be valid HATS as well? Thanks!!

@erasmus66, Thank you for posting your trades frequently here on the thread. Your trades and perseverance is an inspiration to others. I am very thankful for finding this thread and watching Harold's videos. I truly believe that if you are able to ...

Kudos to you for sharing your method and sticking around here to assist other traders. Much appreciated!!!

Hi Harold, hope you're alright! Would you please validate the setups I marked on today's session? Not sure if the ones during the sideways action are legit... Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks, understood!

Hello Harold, Quick hypothetical question about one setup (circled on the cart) The red trigger bar was 23 ticks long (no trade), but had it been 20 ticks or less, would that setup be OK being an inside bar? Are the other setups correct? Thanks!!!

I understand that, Harold. I was just asking if, with the current method, you sometimes decide to manually close a trade or move targets like you did in the old videos... Thanks!

Nice one. I had not realised it was possible to take a 1-bar setup from a double-bottom, thought there should be a second bar taking out its high to form a retracement... Thanks!!

Hi Harold, I have a question for you about trade management. I remember watching some of your older videos on Youtube when you traded the retracements with limit orders. If a trade started to crawl in negative territory, sometimes you would move ...

Hello Harold, hope you had a good trading session. Found these setups on today's session. Not sure if the last one at the top is legit as 1-bar pullback. Thanks for the feedback and have a good weekend!

“So here's the distinction between activities in which luck plays a small role and activities in which luck plays a large role: when luck has little influence, a good process will always have a good outcome. When a measure of luck is involved, a ...

Great explanation, thank you. You're right, no double bottom on the first trade, only inside bars... Second one was only 9 ticks, no trade there. Didn't realise there was a trend change there after the first long "trade". I was considering these red ...

Hi Harold, I found these setups on today's session. Have I missed any of your trades? Thanks!!!

Thank you, Harold. Just one last question and I promise not to bother for a while. On yesterday's session there was setup (#6 on attached chart) --- a 4-bar retracement where bar #3 is an inside bar. Do inside bars count the same in the retracement? ...

Talking about big candles, I have a couple of questions about when to pass on trades because of bar size. I have rewatched some of Harold’s videos but still not 100% clear... 1. Pause setup: I understand that the bar body needs two have a minimum of ...

Alright! I guess the bottom one wasn't valid because there was never a proper retracement after the first blue candle (its high never taken out), is that correct? Thanks, Harold!!!
