EURUSD Week 08 Feb 20 Daily

the moment some have been waiting for .... wanting to trade a possible correction

use %Risk and do your Position Size.

when you risk say 2% you can only lose 2% no matter how big your initial stop loss in pips is.

1. I am looking for the equivalent of 10 pips per trade now, not just per day. I targeted only 5 pips with 2 lots rather than 10 pips with 1 lot on those scalps because price was around that 1.2900 level and really not committed on higher time frames, and we know that on this pair, ANYTHING can happen at those big round numbers.

2. I am not glued to the screen. So when I sit down and see green x red is past, I look for some other entry mechanisms.

Doing the same.
Don't see reason for keep on posting. Once in awhile is enough.

You know that this thread is filled with repeated postings, many of them simply copy-paste. So much repeat, repeat, repeat. So joining in the with the spirit of "we want quantity; quality is not considered" postings. Plus, these little scalps on small time frames fit the low capital trading accounts of most retail traders much better than the high time frame set ups.

hey Tekkies

Nice trade!

I see naked chart with simple basic price action ... small consolidation with two inside bars, then the breakout...

your chart shows a M15 Double Inside Bar DIB setup and your entry was the breakout of the DIB

My realtime screen capture shows a nice classic TMS 5-Method setupo candle.. it is the HA candle which closed below its 5-EMA and both the Stoch(8,3,3) and also the TDI#25 shows a much steeper angle when that breakout/setup candle closed.

Also I am testing both the use of the common indicator RSI for non-MT platform without the custom TDI indicators and study the results.

1) the RSI(13) with EMA(2) and SMA(7) to replicate the TDI - also shows the same cross signal and without any repainting issue.

2) using a single RSI(3) also shows the RSI (3) cross its 50-level. Note how steep the RSI (3) angle is.

hey Tekkies

couple of post back I was talking about USDSGD Daily chart and when SingDollars weakens further and made a new 2020 high.
chart below.

your observation in lower timeframes like H1 is correct and price do react at big round numbers like the 1.39000 but it did not 'fall like a brick'. Therefore I said: we trade what we see and not what we think or what we expect.

Now study this update chart below Feb 21 Open,

look at both the Stoch and the TDI#25 and compare them to the price action above, under the current markt conditions,
they both both lags the Price Action and show opposite signals. Note that both are oscillators and osciallator are not useful when trading in trending market conditions. Oscillators are good when trading in ranging market conditions. In the case of TMS 5-Method, the 'system' fails when trading in narrow range market conditions. The OP was correct when he traded only the H4 10PM, 2AM and 6AM candles, he only took the best setups when he sees the price swings in ranging market conditions and he trade the reversal entries with his HA candles#1 and #2. He avoided trading when the market is in CONSOLIDATION which he sees with small HA candles and also the 5-EMA being 'flat'. His 5EMA shifted +3 must point in the right direction. I also observe the price action and its distance from the 5EMA as additional factor to add weight to the trade setup condition.
