hi all, this is my third journal I am opening in the WWW...

I am learning and still learning, so all constructive criticism are welcomed ....
chart are welcomed too but not to complicated please ... I am a newbie afterall...

I would be using

1. standard mt4 fibonacci retracement levels
2. awesome oscillator
3. Trendlines
4. Classic support become resistance<>resistance become support levels
5. High, Low, HH, HL, LL , LH
(6. maybe some moving averages and bollinger bands, maybe not)

7. Elliot waves theory?? *i'm still learning this, learn on the go... the way i see it , we need to learn all those 1 to 5 first in order to apply elliotism
owh yes, forgot to add,

timeframes: from 5 minutes to 1 hour

this is my first trade in this journal

- we have a bullish divergence from the AO indicator
- trendline break
- and an intention / attempt to go up previously at the trendline
- owh yes, forgot to mention , my first fib is from a small wave, and the latter is from a bigger wave

woke up this morning and uptrend is in order, still valid, price keep making steeper trendlines, keep making HH and HL, however be alert if price make a HL at the shadow area , this is considered an attempt from the bear side and price will sooner or later break the trendline if bear is in play... for now price still valid for UP move until the TL breaks or price make a bearish divergence

there's a new higher low, a place to set my sl
Will be following you, keep it up.

i have long entries as well and for the fact that i trade EURUSD 100% you are doing very well and see what i see. so i like you and will check from time to time. your topic kind off matches the title below my name =p

Are you trading live,i see that you are not a newbie , you are atleast intermediate or pro based on what you just posted.

about EUR, i think after gap close i will aim for sell again.

haha... thanks dude... i still have a mentality of a newbie even though i technically competent(wishful thinking)... thats the point of having a journal anyway...

i don't trade gap as i do not understand them... i trade based on high low... and all those stuff in my first post... however, i respect opinion though...

p/s : i like your signature ... thats what trading does to people who survive

previous OP hit BE+...new OP , up move still valid , i think i should be shorting but we'll see what happens, i am waiting for price to make a higher low to set the stoploss level, otherwise if price go south crazy, i will cutloss manually

cutloss -30pips... looking for short position as i just spotted divergence on H1, M30 and M15

short EU just now, price attempt to make a new high but failed to break previous levels twice, which make this a support became resistance level.. hope this sticks, looking forward for price to break TL no1 and TL no2

my short of EU still in order, I'm still bias for bearish move as a rising wedge was formed in my opinion... however i will cutloss if price show bull sign in 1.3380-1.3390 area...

I don't think i will trade today, taking a break to study the chart for my whatever works method...

I am still studying some stuff in order to apply them to my daily trading

Just place these notes in my journal so i could have a look on them later..

Its ok , i know you guys would say, "this is such a basic stuff!"

I don't care... I need to study this and might as well stuff these notes in my journal... that's the point of journal right?
