Hi Ralffe,
Adjustable shallow angled trendlines. That's thinking outside the square! - well done.
One question: You seem to often trade against the USD which means you will often get an entry signal on multiple pairs (gold, oil, A/U, N/U). When you do, do you just take the best one or have reduced size entries spread across them all?
If you are trading a number of pairs against the USD & USD changes it's mind & goes the other way you would have multiple losses.

I do watch for the best opportunities but stick mainly to gold & AU. Adding on whenever possible & doubling up when well in front.

Comment: I think you will have a tough time trying to trade this strategy, on a 1 hr time frame as Ralffe has mentioned. Maybe you should rethink your reason for doing so... Just my 2 cents.

You don't like what you see for good reason. This pair as with most pairs is going sideways.
You are trading on the 1H. That's OK so long as you are prepared to screen watch. In fact whenever the market starts into consolidation with no definite direction, the 1H & 4H are best. Looking for add on's after a pull-back can also be executed on the 4H. Sometimes. Only with experience will you be able to decide which is best.

On the 1H you should be long this pair & you were right to go short when you did. I have redrawn this as it should have been.

Hi Ralffe,
Just wondering, Isn't it a valid entry where i drew a green line? Looks like it meets all your rules.

One more favour, The pairs you trade AU,GOLD,NU,AJ and GJ. Can you each weekend just post them with your latest TLs?
I would appreciate that very much and it will help us all to see if we are in sync with you, Daily charts only.
Thank you.

Well, these videos are PURE GOLD which it's impossible to find on the net where the 99% of the content (including threads in the forums) are USELESS TRASH!!!

Notice that since i started trading based on Ralffe's teachings, i've not hitted yet a SL, and i'm not a 10 years experienced Trader.

Thank you Sir!

Hi nuduriau I think the trend line would have been considered at that point to be too steep and so your trend line should have looked more like this. I am sure Ralffe will correct me if I am wrong

Trendlines are great in backtesting a chart. You can draw exact lines. In action this is not as easy as the thread sounds like. What are with movements that are not so exact on the line? What points you will connect. For myself i quit the use of trendlines and go with levels. No space for interpretaion of the lines, because they are horizontal.

Sorry, only my opinion. Good if you can work this way, i cant it and i have many times test to trade with trendlines.
