{quote} Cheers digs - u always make it sound so f**king easy! i spent the day shitting it - worrying every short i had, the market was gonna head up to 1560......or every long, the market was gonna reverse yesterdays spike! Joy! and if i had just left my short from last night (up at 1490!)....not read any news/analysis sites or other forums this morning.....i would have made a ton of money....instead of losing a load!
I also had an early short entry yesterday after-jay. On piece of advice (it's free so you know what it is worth) I always enter my first position smalllllll!, set my parameters and watch the price action. That way if I am blown out by poor judgement, greed, fomo etc. it is so small it is the cost of doing business. If it just
seems to get stuck a bit above (in this case) where I entered short, I wait to see if it heads back down through my initial position (I'm in the green on my
tiny position at this point) then wait fr a slight pull back to what I consider an important level above or below my initial(or even at, if I can catch it) and start
loading up. Figure out where I want to exit, and that's it.
good luck,
regards

[quote=digger1;11950255]Little run down of the day ,,, started for me with them 2 little sell patterns,,, course asia ran it on up from days open and got their little piece of yesterdays pie ,, did they hold ,, hell no ,,, 2 sell patterns ,,, volume hits from Frankie and London getting going ,,, what did london do ,, they sold ,,down to what we know is the 1st line in the sand ,,

on the right hand diagram, how do those white lines help u out? I draw them all the time, but never quite sure how it helps!

price pokes thru ,,then bounces a bit then right back down ,, london sold ,,no rip from any sup level so far ,,just high enough where it got whacked again ,,those are pokes thru support levels ,, no bounce or attempts to drive it higher from any of them ,,, more follow thru soon it styed below the little blue average ,,,thats just an hourly price ave ,,,, you can match your hour candles up with where the ave was touched ,, next level gives out down a little farther ,,, back up or next hour candle ,, down a little farther ,, now day is over ,, not much happening ,, asia may get there 20 25 pips selling when they get going ,, or sup might start gettting bought back ,,,,new day coming start with the 1st line in the sand same as yesterday

much better to close out with some profit as opposed to being under water witng for it to come back to you ,,,sometimes it dont come back and the problem is compounded ,, it can stay irrational to your thopught process a whole lot longer than one can sty solvent ,,even tho it does move slow

{quote} You are right in that dept Z,,, true support and res is always going to be horizontal ,,when trend lines work perfect ,,, usually because they happen to line up just right ,,, they are a little like fibs ,, if you screw around long enough you will find one that lines up ,,just so one can say see told ya lol
Horizontal lines.....

very true but if you invest in it and with time you can also predict the near future more than 50% ......Normally and also in a non directional market, those levels will respond, if they respond with a signal bar in the direction of your trade then you have 60% probability that you risk will be gained unless an opposite level is obstructing your gain...

also there are days where it is worth not to take partial profit but to trail your trade beyond the latest swing......Those are the days where dollar and yen are both at the extreme (risk or not risk) especially in the direction of the major flow....
