1/ When lawgirl says enter on the 15min candle after it has completely cleared a res&sup line does she mean a complete candle wick body and tail not to be even touching the line at all.
2/ What recommended sl would she be using


It is now over 21 hours since I have asked the above questions will someone please answer them.
Time now nearly 12am GMT.

Now 23 hours surely I will get an answer within a day but I wont hold my breath because if I do someone will find me keeled over and by then the answer will be no good to me when I am dead.

Yes the whole body including the wicks should be clear of the S/R lines. But if there are big wicks and small bodies this would indicate indecision, I normally pass on these.
As to SL levels thats up to you and your tolerence level, account size etc. I use 30 pip SL in my trading, and 50 pips on the 3 tap, this I have found to be ok and works for me.
Hope this helps

Hey guys, I shorted this one last night on the third tap. Put my S/L before I went to bed, not expecting this pair to fall close to 200 pips. I snuck away with about 80 pips on this one.

Really appreciate you doing this thread. Do you follow or trade Gold, Silver or the S and P? I own large chunks of public companies that deal in silver and gold, so its pretty important to me.

I trade mostly now and am trying to achieve 25% on my account a month. I am currently doing about 10% for the most part. But it seems to take a ton of energy just doing that. Still I am competitive and determined. This is a TOUGH game. You are making it slightly less tough for me. Thanks again.

In the last 24 Hr I have made 130+ pips just trading 3 taps, not the BO part of the system. 130+ isn't bad for just researching and backtracking during the weekend( I started trading this system on Monday). I do lookout on what the Sp500 does, and gold and silver. In fact, the Usd/Cad looks alot like gold, so does the Aud/Usd. In some cases, seeing the Eur/Usd goes with Sp500, I having made trades just because I saw a Head and Shoulders pattern on the sp.

This is not my thread, I am simply a contributer. But yes, the three tap trades were very plentiful. The 3 tap trades are very simple, but sometimes a pair can be so oversold that it doesn't have much choice but to go the opposite way of the 3 tap.

Closed out of my Aud/Nzd trade for a 11 pip loss, mainly because I saw something better, which is the Gbp/Chf. Triple Bottom, which is 3 taps, and I believe there is going to be another Leg up before we retrace. Big possible profit, small SL, just the way I like it. I'm long.
