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.
Hi MichaelSch I can see how it can be confusing at first, but by viewing the video on page 1 and Page 24 several times as I did you soon get an eye for it and if you only concentrate on the Daily time frame this will give you more thinking time.

{quote} 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 {image} And then later changed to this {image}
Actually nuduriau copied the line off Ralffe's 3rd vid. It does get a bit subjective depending on where you start the line. I have been drawing the lines like your suggestion to nuduriau, I'll have to watch the vids a few more times. In relation to nuduriau's question, I think the price bars not making higher extremes would keep me out of a long trade. Price can go down a long way whilst on the high side of a down sloping trend line.
Good Trading

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

Hi thanks for the videos how does the new add on positions affect the old ones ? for example do you move your stop to break evens or things like that ? Also what is the difference between dubbling up and add on ?

Thank You.

Best regards

I started to mark up some charts with questions, but realized it would be a bit difficult to follow with several charts, so I made a 5 1/2 min video.

I watched the video and understand how the lines work but I'm a bit confused. How do we define a wave first of all and second how do we define the entry or exit?

thanks,

Thanks very much Ralffe for your videos, i really enjoyed them!
I find a little bit hard to understand the way you show to put the trendline on the candle of congestion. I hope that with the practice it will become clear.
Green pips,

I saw what I expect to be a viable trade on UCad. I didn't go for a huge SL, instead I put my stop in heavy traffic on D1 & H4. Probably missed ideal entry by 25ish.

Looks like an ABC retrace on the 4H Gold & similar on others. For those wanting to hold on the Daily, just hold tight. For others wanting to play this pull-back. Go to the 4H. Let the lines help you decide when to TP.

Each to his/her own. However in all cases using horizontal lines you will be late to the party & late to exit.

Had a day with nothing to do so decided to play the AU & Gold retraces on the 15m charts.
Gotta say this system brings back the joy into trading.
