Last quarters low getting close ,, 6481 ,, new week tho not far away could be everything different by then lol ,, sliding under tht L4 level sometimes not good but any rate ,,, why I always try and find the pieces to get to a previous high or previous low ,, price just has a way of doing shit like tht time after time if its gonna do it I would rather make it and bank it as opposed to being underwater sweating and fretting on whether tht low was gonna hold ,, or fold

I hate being underwater I guess that’s just part of it and when you trade higher time frames you’re going to be underwater a lot of pips sometimes

well I know one tht aint lol, me , and I trade higher time frames ,, cant really scalp efficiently with out knowing wht the hell is going on on a higher time frame,, played tht damn game for far too long ,, its great but there is always tht one time where it goes just a little too far and tht one time happens just often enough to keep one in tht damn loop make a bunch ,, give it back ,,make a bunch, give it back

I aim for a lot of pips though I think I might just start waiting on one or 2 signals and only trade those

Frustrating as I could have bought lower but sometimes sometimes my order hasn’t gone filled so I bought 4 pips above point D at 6550 my trade is going to be ok I believe that was very stressful

well playing tht head and shoulder pattern ,,or waiting for it to play would have got ya a much better entry or the weekly pivots when S1 went down and was retested with a projection to S2 it will probably happen ,, if your only looking for a few entries for big pips you will have time to figure tht shit out ,, what else ya gonna do but sit on your hands and wait ,,, then see what looks like this or look like tht ,,, ,, if ya miss the very best best possible price ,,who gives a shit at least ya get in when its headed the way ya was trying to go ,, and your trading whats KNOWN ,, not wht something looks like,,,, till another candle or very next candle completely destroys what it looked like

True I just hate missing them part of it I guess. I’m going to start placing 3 limit orders instead of one 10 intervals a part so 6550 6540 6530 for example for these patterns

This may sound ridiculous ,, just gonna throw it out there ,, I know you mention daily chart and four hour chart ,, ya may or ya may not ,, make sure ya look at tht daily chart ,, trading,,, your days run together and pretty soon a week is gone ,, most when they have a 4 hour chart up ,,what one see s is a long time ,, but the whole picture is not there ,, just a quick glance ,, yea price at the bottom ,, it looks like this or tht,, Im in ,, cant remember your exact entry ,, but on a 4 hour chart thts a sizeable chunk ,, and really dont know if a turn is in yet ,, ,, well ,, ya have this picture

then the real picture ,,, one or two negative trade deal tweets over the weekend and with the price chart low ,,not the fit the monitor low ,being lower yet , big difference where might price open ,, the scaling thing fucks with more people than realize it ,, far as those patterns ,, they have cost you as much as they have made ya ,, ,, previous high or slightly thru previous low or slightly thru always pays the most ,,, come Sunday ,, those weekly pivots will automatically be there ,,, levels ,, and hey they are based on what price did the week before ,, its known and its marked for ya lol,, ,, weeklys to trade the quarterlies back and forth has worked well for a very long time ,, still has to be implemented ,,still not easy ,, but one is trading what is known ,, not what something looks like

I’m going to start doing 3 equal positions 10 pips a part. I look at daily chart. And I read somewhere that these patterns give you an edge of 80% or so can’t remember where I read that. There’s a lot of incorrect stuff online regarding these patterns. I only focus on these patterns on daily and H4. And if you get a good entry on daily you should be able to get about 200 pips a lot of times with these patterns. They’re my favorite thing because they give a target and yield a lot of pips when they work. If you traded from C point to D then bought D point you’re going to get a lot of pips. Got 219 on way down then aiming for about 150 on way up might be less

In the end ,, I just call them what they are just a test of previous level tht either held or it did not ,, last quarters pivot ,, not a butterfly ,, not a crab ,, not a cypher or what ever the hell else one can think up ,, a level ,, nothing more ,,nothing less,,sounds cool tho lol
