Because it was a valid signal. Risky because price is ranging. I just got stopped out. That was a fast loss That makes two in a row for me on this pair this week. Stupid ranging price. There will be a breakout eventually though.

My AUDUSD and EURUSD trades just hit take profits. That's two full 1R losses on GBPAUD and two 2R take profits this week. I am up 2R in profit so far this week.

I want to talk about the EURUSD trade. You can see I was shorting into a support level and that level completely broke. The indicators RH has compiled for us are momentum based indicators. The indicators were showing downward momentum and it went right through the level. If I had not taken that trade based on what I thought might happen at that level instead of trusting what the indicators were telling me price is doing I would have missed this profitable trade. Support and resistance fail all the time - they have to or there would be no trends. Time and time again professional traders tell us to trade what we see not what we think.

They don't take any notice on this thread of consolidation zones, or support/resistance, they just take the trades as they come.

Trend is down...just a matter if you will get whipsawed a bit before potentially continuing on down Or, the trend reverses

My EUR/USD actually hit 2R as well. This could be the first 2R result of my trading life in amongst all the SL, but hey what a result. Big thanks to RH and emmanuel for all the training. Going to read all of the Emmanuel e-books now and look forward to more wins.

EURUSD trade update

I closed 2 batches with profits. Now the lats batch with profit locked and let the market decide if it would hit 5xATR(10).
I let CM do its job while I look for other trades.

Happy days. You're just showing off now with 5R. Keep up the good work. I see you posted a couple of pdf tutorials of cavemanager on the TMS thread if others would like to read up. Maybe repost here if enough people want to know more.

Hi everyone, my name is Major.
I read with great interest what was written by "RobinHood" "emmanuel7788" and others, thanks to all of you, for the suggestions, I think I understood "Trading Made Simple".
I have not yet completed reading all 96 pages and therefore I apologize if I ask stupid questions, but I am here to learn your way to trade.
I enclose a Jpg file with some questions, I have other questions to ask but for now it may be enough.
I thank everyone for the commitment you demonstrate to teach those like me who are not experts.
I thank you in advance for taking the time to read this message.
Thank you so much.
Major

Yes. I got stopped out yesterday too. Small profit for my effort.

Today I did not take any trade seeing the ranging or consolidating or sideways market conditions... whatever people like to call that.

It is 5xATR(10) and only 2.5R ( not 5R) if this last batch can go that far...
my initial SL placed by CM was 2xATR(10).

CM is nice when you have your Exit strategy and know how to set it up to do your trade management for you.
Let me know and I can help you with the input parameters.

The stochastic colours don't mean anything in particular for these methodologies so don't concern yourself with it. For your Point 1, the entry is at the close of that candle. Where you are showing the entry with your Fib tool is incorrect and too early - all the indicators have not yet crossed the 50 line until that candle closes.

Actually, I've never discussed why I use that EXACT version of Stochastic indicator.

So I'll show an example now of how I SOMETIMES use it:
