For H1 only. Price finally ended the H1 downtrend running for 82 hours. (If you are buying stop loss if any H1 can close below 1.1786) good luck

{quote} Well... I think all will agree that Constructive Criticism is always welcome - we wanna learn and grow. For that we all should exchange views and strategies without gloating or any extra drama...certainly no Trolls welcome. on the point ATM: S&D - time to break that .1810...? EDIT: Closed my 2 stage longs at +18 pips, as Frankfurt about to kick in + price at supply. Waiting on break confirmation to continue long buy. {image}
That's because EGO is way bigger than reason in all Universes after the BBang and it will always be.
So, the common people will perceive any criticism as envy, ambition, arrogance, superiority, competition, fight, bad mood, frustration...
IMO is much wiser to 'learn and grow' by watching other's work, not by telling someone basically 'you suck!'
Peace!

Post like a signal service but they must include the entry price for their market/pending order and their initial stop loss. Example 1: Entered LONG at 1.1850, Initial SL: 1.1820 Example 2: I've just put a Buy Limit pending order at 1.0890, my initial SL is 1.0850

Could we please go back to trading instead of making this another EUR/USD thread?
Forexfactory really need two of this kind? Just saying... it's really getting worse in here.
So, I try a little intraday scalp (Short).
Entry taken on H1 - Bollinger Bands ( 20, 2) / Stochastic (5,3,3) / Daily SR (1.1816) / Intraday Pivots:
Anticipating a 1:3 (RR) pull to the downside with a break of the daily Pivot, targeting the S1 pricelevel in trend direction, with a super tight Stop,
based on my overall TA (see previous post).
Don't know if it works, I am not trying to "win trades".
It's a good opportunity.
(Please do not copy my trades, if you do you are alone!)
Entry: 1.18079 (third time I sell this price intraday)
Stop: 1.18204
Target: not set

Got stopped.
@myself: stop punting the open! Punting the open is for idiots! Was a good trade though...
@anyone else: when you can look at a losing trade and explain to me why it was a good trade, you understood trading
(and you probably read Mark Douglas)
Sidelines, waiting...

Now, I like to share my knowledge and absorb as much as I can from others... Yesterday some "trader" cracked me up with a Joke about Fib. and that being useless and so... Here an example of our current chart - Fib. Levels and S&D levels match almost on every level. Evidence for that is not only my chart and graphs, but also the PA. So the conclusion is: If you Fib. Does not make sense constantly - You dont have a clue what you are doing! PS - Fib. is math progression! In this world traded by computer algorithms (aka math questions) one have to be...
But I stopped discussing Fibonacci (and anything else) a long time ago.
Fibonacci is super precise, if used right. (It's a measurement tool, not a "Signal Indicator")
The problem is: people tend to trade the lines instead of the price.
To use Fibonacci, or Pivots, or simple Support and Resistance, or Supply and Demand, or or or... you MUST have a good understanding of priceaction.
If you can't read candlesticks and priceaction, that form around the lines, whichever lines you use, they wont help you.
Sad truth is, people look at candlestick charts all the time and have no idea what they are looking at.
And trying to discuss with these 90%, is nothing but a waste of time and energy.
There are some serious "Boom & Busters" around us who are not shy to go into wild verbal insults and abuse when they crash yet another account.
You should see some of the PM's I recieve, that's beyond wild...
I firmly believe the "Ignore" button is the go-to tool for these kind of people.
Do not be disencouraged by idiots, and don't waste your energy.
It makes no sense to bang your head against some mad buggers wall....
Eliminate all emotion, and stay positive, always
Also, I want to add:
the worst trading desk you can come across on a professional level, is a desk where everyone is of the same opinion. That's the worst thing that can happen because you end up with a portfolio where every trader has the same or very similar positions, and this causes unreasonable drawdowns.
Diversity is the spice of life, and having different opinions is worth cash money.
think about it, how bad can it be if everyone agrees and we are all wrong? Terrible situation...
you also don't get proper fistfights in such a "we are all friends" situation. Terrible.. no opportunity to place bets
If you have 10 traders on the desk, you must have at least 8 different opinions. Otherwise your desk sucks.

Hi Isense, {quote} I will try and explain in simple terms: The 4 highlighted blocks represent Asia(brown rectangle) and New york (Blue rectangle) Yesterday morning in Asia price went above the New york session high of the day before, the first clue that price is taking a rest. Yesterday in New York they pushed price below the Asian session but held it within the New york range of the day before. A sign of indecision. And this is where I opened my first trades. This morning they opened Asia just above The new york session low and pushed it just above...
@Wavegarrick
I have never seen anyone trade this system of Asia / NY ranges.
It's super interesting, thank you for sharing
