But yes many winning trades too. concerning your trades,.. Be careful man. Take a look at the first short,. I really can't see what that setup was,.. Can you please tell me what you were seeing before taking it? The second short we had the 20 level just above it,.. Prices tested it, thus, you getting stopped out,. The third trade, was quite understandable,. But again If I...Ignored
From your chart it seems that it was ranging but from mine not really. I spotted that strong bearish move which was way stronger than the other bars so I perceived it as the beginning of a trend or anyway something to trade for continuation.
Anyway, I still have problems in understanding when the market is ranging and when is trending, or in other words when to look for continuation and when not to. Because many times it's a matter of perspectives.
As for the Dropbox, okay, if Volman sent you then it's definitely trustful besides the actual author of the folder.
For your trades, it's hard indeed, mostly when coming after a ranging period or having seen a lot of continuation setups fail. I think anyway that, when you see the market clearly showing lower tops for a downtrend or higher bottoms for an uptrend then those setups are definitely playable. I also skipped kind of 4 or 5 setups like that in the fear of a failing continuation, that's maybe why today I was more aggressive, but it wasn't the right environment.
I attached the chart of yesterday, missed them all...
