1. Daily charts - all pairs
2.
SELL after SHOOTING STAR candle on uptrend
3. BUY after HAMMER
candle on downtrend

Mates, let's be honest: these setups are 85%+ successful.

Strategy:

a) Buy/Sell NUMEROUS LOTS on the DAY following the above candles.
b) Compound and Buy/Sell MORE LOTS EXPONENTIALLY during that same day with the UNREA
LIZED PROFIT

If you would have sold after SHOOTING STAR you would have won over 230 pips or more if it continues to fall in the next days...

I think thats why james16 loves them(pin bars) as well,
tony how do you enter these trades, i have heard, haven't tried it as yet, if you wait for a fib retracement the next day it works well for a good lower risk entry.

cheers
geoff

edit: P.S. K.R days work good too!!!!

I mostly look for trend-line breaks and ''Pins'' as you named them. Once a daily candle closes as:

hammer: I buy many lots progressively on that day
shooting star: I sell many lots progressively on that day

e.g. 250$ can easily turn into 2500$

Hi Tony, i have so many question but because English is not my first language I find it difficult to express. Anyway, lets say today you found a hammer/shooting star, so tomorrow is it okay to go to H1 to find my pullback/rally for my entry? And do you use fib to pinpoint the areas?

Thanks.

hello there,

i'm trying to understand your system.. please correct me if i'm wrong.

what you trying to say is, view daily TF, if you see shooting star/hammer on the previous day, it will determine the trend for today?

if let's say that a hammer is set yesterday, it's a good idea to keep buying through out today?

exactly, pyramiding with high leverage... it a multiplies your account balance in a scary way but be careful for retraces...
