Please learn how to trade with PA no matter the method You're using...... That candle is not BIG candle as you put it compare to the TIMEFRAME(D1).

A big candle is overly large candle that sticks out FAR beyond the recent price action. - please take note of this.

PA is King..........

Happy Trading,
Yomi.

Good stuff Yomi, if it works for you then hats off

Here is my definition of a Large Candle:-

Today's ADR > ADR (10).

And by today, in this case, I am referring to the last closed Daily Candle.

Stopped out of three trades over night it looks like. That's what a guy gets for tight stops What a terrible, terrible month for me. Oh well...the wins are right around the corner...they can't all be losers I will re-enter those trades with pending orders at the last opposite SAR as the conditions are still valid since I just got stopped out by some crappy price action and tight stops not necessarily a change in trend direction. If price continues in the opposite direction then my orders won't get filled and no harm done.

Yup. These are the things that happen in the market all the time. We could sit out until it's all over, but then there will just be some other reason to justify sitting out. These events can cause trades to go in our favour as much as against us. I think if we continue to focus on taking trades in the direction of the long term bias and manage our losses (I really hate taking these full 1R losses...no chance for me to trail a stop lately before being taken out! I admit that I have tight stops.) we will come out ahead of the came long term.

Just a quick video reminding you to be cognizant of your account size and how you trade. The size of your account can certainly influence how you trade. Traders with small accounts often over trade and trade with position sizes that are too large in order to make more "usable" dollar values out of the winners. This backfires more often than not leading to blown accounts. 2% risk on a $500 account yields a 2R win of only $20 (barely enough for a burger and beer in many places) but on a $10,000 account that same 2R trade makes a $400 win (that's a car payment and then some gas money). Big difference in terms of real dollar amounts.

Hello all!
Just a quick question relating to VantageFX (International).
Here in Canada, there is limited choice in broker.

This MT4 ping time does not look right. If anyone else has experienced similar
or has a solution, I would be appreciative.
