{quote} hmm depends IMO bunch of other factors like if this were say more active hours during London session I wouldn't. but slower hours like these and I see hints of continuation on higher timeframes I would. {quote} 1.1396 to 1.1400 area marks a touch of both your new and old LWMAs on H1. I removed trail off my trade and am looking to add there with stops just above 1.1405. Good luck hope you get your entry!!
cool thanx for the answer

I just took a long 1.13936
M5 made a HL-HH-HL
Last HL was pullback to the break level
so nice setup however its smack in the middle of an SR area so this could go wrong
in wondering about yourself, you forgot what you came here to be part of

Good luck bro, all valid reasons! Hope we both milk some pips from this move.

Once H1 candle closes below 1.1391 we will have a new BLUE TL breakout. Based on rules we must look for a sell setup. As high as you can! Stay Green
Please be patient with me as I learn and absorb your trading style. Will be a slow rate of adjustment, as I trade a different system. You are probably aware, it is easier to write on a clean piece of paper as opposed to erase an already written paper and then write.

I've drawn a red treadline from (on 15 minute chart) 1.1416ish area to 1.13992 using the body and no wick. Blue trendline from 1.1373ish to 1.1385ish.

You don't have to teach me I'll work it out. I will go thru your lessons and photos. It will just take me time to absorb your style and get into the flow of how you think.

Thanks for running this thread, it works for me as I am only focusing on Eur/Usd ATM.

As far as the pattern discussed ,, if one thinks they are all gonna lay text book nice and pretty on a chart ,,I would reconsider ,,they can be down right ugly and mean the same thing ,, shorter time frames can and are messy traders ,, its a f&*king chess match between traders ,,its still going to come to a level sup or res that holds or folds ,, there isint nothing for any pattern that a mkt must or must not do,, it does what there is more of from a sup or res level period. {image}
Yea, it's a chess match but between bigger fish than you and I. It's a chess match between the movers (100+ lot traders) are who manipulate the markets and the commercials (central banks) who occasionally run over the movers if they don't get out of the way. But I am certain the movers have someone on the payroll at the CB's who know the decisions beforehand.

We can only hope to ride the coattails of the movers (and listen for the lawnmowers who mow over any movers in the way).

Looking forward, if today ends as it's, that will be a D1 engulfing/(outside bar) candle yesterday and inside bar today. + MACD bearish divergence.

Anything can happen though.

{quote} Can you share some charts and your strategy. A lot of us here use our own strategy. Ata only asks that we share the strategy on EURUSD only.
I'm not using any automated EA. I use an amalgam of strategies the goal being to take opportunities to make money. I'm at a point in my life where I only need 10 pips a day to live well. So I'm fortunate to not be under a lot of pressure to have to try and force big trades. However I'm always trying to look forward towards the next 100 pip move as that bonus money will fund more trading opportunities.

I will work on getting a setup I'm comfortable with to more easily share charts and disclose trade info, as I haven't been part of a trading community for some time. It is a big decision to join a community and I would want to be responsible and try to contribute to the well being of all. It can become tiresome to do a lot of posting; so I will try to balance out my time as I'm not sure how active exactly I will be here.

I got stopped out of my long position for 1 pip. Will look for another spot to get long.
Edit: I will always move my stops up to +1 as soon as there is a move above my entry. I don't ever want to take a loss on a trade that was profitable (even if for a brief moment). That being said sometimes stops don't get adjusted and bad things happen. The key for me at this point is to minimize accidents, and let working trades work.
Edit: Depending on where I'm at as to my goals for the day (which change daily, but I have daily, weekly, monthly, yearly goals) I will trade accordingly also if market is chopping like today I should take profits at highs and not let myself stop out. However I've already made my money for today so I don't really care and I believe a upside news event is coming so I want to have a profitable long trade on as often as I am able to, so I will try to leave trades on till stopped out. Where as normally in choppy day like today and I need money or need to make up for another days losses I will take off profitable trades at 5 and 10 pips depending on price action. -- Hopefully that helps explain how I trade money/pip wise.

well traders bout to find out if a level holds or folds ,,follow the hourly left ..2 weeks worth of weekly pivots in the same area this weeks pivot just slightly below but hourly 200 support in between ,,one of those areas all looks bearish as hell ,,but about the time you are counting all the pips you are going to collect as it starts in your direction ,,in the blink of an eye or before you can finish counting the big spike goes the other way ,, jury out here but buyers have been scrapping ,,also why buying at support or selling res is important ,, not fiddling in the middle ,,if you sold last weeks high you have at least a break even stop ,, if you bought the daily open or the hourly 200 area you are safe with a break even stp ,,find the levels the mkt uses ,,not shit plucked out of the air and have the patience to wait for them to be hit ,, you will win no matter what ,, have a great Holiday for those who have one ,,,levels levels levels traders sty green all

Ended up closing this one at 1.1386 (+7 pips) but went for round 3 and shorted 1.13918 for another +5 pips. But M5 making higher lows now and the LWMAs I've been using as resistance to short off of are getting steeper, making the range tighter and tighter so I think I'll stay out now.

1.1385 supporting very well and the ceiling to short is getting lower and lower. Not really worth the R:R at present imo.

Damn, yet another week without my 3x swap ):
