In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

quote from part of the conclusion from Harmonic Trading Vol1
"‪Harmonic Trading:Volume One is a comprehensive foundation for most of the Harmonic Trading techniques. A great deal of material covered in The Harmonic Trader —such as the Three Drives pattern, prior gaps, and the importance of Volume—is not in this material. However, I believe this book possesses a thorough methodology from pattern identification to trade execution through the entire trade management process."
I am chasing "The Harmonic Trader".
I'm really trying to get my head around this and noticed I'm missing the beginning of his journey on my 2nd read of V1, I already have V2&3:
perhaps I just have to get a newer set of the 3of them.
ps AU is going into the zone and AN could hit the pending trade I placed where once long ago I would have put a stop loss

I will get my head around this, but always can be wrong

starpro - This is what's working for me... My broker 00:00 time is 5pm ET. So my setting is Monday to Monday starting at 00:00 ET and the last bar is 23:00 ET(Sunday night). Which translate to what's in the screenshot to match my broker time. Maybe this will work for you too.

Wow,
I'll tell you guys...great respect for what you're doing here. Especially you Davit. I just don't know if I have the screen time to make this successful.
I'm trading live on a small account and have pretty much treading water (so not all bad). Trouble is I'll have entries (like a pack of AN longs) and then I'll miss the good exit while away or sleeping. They were heading up toward R38 last night so was going to watch reaction there but when I got up this morning already retraced quite a bit.

Typical result for me.

Thanks for the reply Thedrrew, made absolutely no difference ... there is slight difference when I choose diff "method" ... changing dates /hours/gmt offset/ makes no difference .tried putting "manual start/finish times in.. still no difference.. it has been working ok up until I checked Davits AN chart .... I even tried voty ,

thats because Davits charts is using last weeks pivots, I updated mine and find his to be helpful as to where it was when I placed the trade
also my pivots aren't the same as Davits as I use Axitrader and he uses Oanda
if you really want exactly the same as Davit get an Oanda A/c and set
it up

I will get my head around this, but always can be wrong

Hi starpro,
if you are continuing to have problems, can I suggest that you use the indicator from Nostromo's post 14383 on January 6.
So long as your broker uses "NY close" candles, then you won't have to change anything. It also has the advantage of allowing manual backtesting, as you can set it to look back as many weeks as you wish. (default is 10 weeks).
I'm not advocating using anything other than Davit's indies, but if you are having continuing problems, that may be "an" answer.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
