Thank you!

thanks for your comments; Since I always wait for the setup formation to be broken, I was only in 5-6 pips profit when it started going against me, I did set a Limit to break-even when I was in -2 pips (during third bar) but it never returned and ...

EU loss — they say that when you trend trade you only lose when you happen to pick the top/bottom. well....many times just you do! too bad!

It was the previous wave, the pin I'm pointing out opened at 12:00 EST, the one you mention is 13:10 EST.

EU 5min withtrend — I think the US session is back! two trades, I captured the first one just as the the bar closed, notice those two bigger than average bearish bars, that for me is a clear sign of momentum, then we got a nice ...

EU 5min CT — did any body else notice this year's summer was pretty bad for trading this methods, I went for whole weeks without a decent setup, thankfully it kept me out of bad trades too. This is today's trade, missed my TP by 0.3 ...

2 bars and no break, I will just leave it alone for now..

EU 5min — waiting the break

Exactly! I'll tell what will happen, when you make a couple of bucks by clicking the mouse 3 times in 30 minutes, you will somehow make a mistake and return all of that money to the market, just because internally you think you don't deserve it ...

EA — Hey Mike, what do you think of this one? that particular bar closed at 12pm EST,would you take it?

.. — ... edit: ..I thought you were using MT4

! — excellent experiment! I'll be following.

thank you Mike, you're an amazing guy and a true inspiration'

thank you sir, I know you mean well. look, here's another chart, it happened just an hour ago.

I agree with you on being short on that bearish bar, I would have, but I didn't notice until today. About the counter pin, it is not the size i worry about, but the fact that it didn't test the bottom to the last pip, If it had run the stops, ...

I only take CT pin-bars when they are the second leg on a double bottom/Top (maybe triple) so, i guess I only take hidden pin-bars as by your nomenclature. I've come to realize that a single bar is not quite enough to stop the running train, ...

that's well I ask you this because, when I look at charts I have a tendency to fool myself into all the great trades I would have taken but when I move to the right side of the screen it gets difficult again, my profit targets get too big or to ...

EU daily — I just bumped into this CT daily setup, at a swing low, divergence and good shape overall. I,m hesitant to place my stop order above the PIN, the main reason is that huge "withtrend" bearish bar and the fact that it didn't break ...

what do you consider a winner?

these are the best words I've read here lately, You seem to know what your talking about even more than some people with 100+Vouches. please keep'em coming and some charts wouldn't hurt either!!!
