The down trend line was broken last night! Broketrader are we seeing the first failed move for the year?

If it gives a sell signal today, what to do?

I am a firm believer of this system though, as this current situation is new to me

Your trend for me is nonexistent, as long as we haven't made a new high above 1.0930 we don't know where the low is, so we can't draw any trend.

There is nothing new Bororo, as long as the signal is there, we stay with it, eventually reduce your position if you're not confident but you shouldn't close completely until new signal appears.

If I have reduced my position, it's not because of lack of confidence but because I was too heavy and ad already some losses but i will stay in until a bearish signal appears and if it's a failure, then let it be...

"What is a Trend?
A trend is the general direction of a market or an asset's price. In technical analysis, trends are identified by trendlines or price action that highlight when the price is making higher swing highs and higher swing lows for an uptrend, or lower swing lows and lower swing highs for a downtrend."

Hi Broketrader,
Have we already seen the second wave or not?
Is it okay as I marked it or should the wave be lower?

I would just like to understand these waves in detail because it seems to me the only thing that still eludes me.
Thanks

Hi Francesco,
It's a tricky question and was trying to figure it out also myself...

Looking at past trends, this is the only thing we can do to learn, the following waves come after a new swing high/low or at least a touch of the level of previous swing high/low, like a double top/bottom if you prefer, I think that this is what define them (the waves) the best.

Currently, between your 2 lows, the maximum price we got was 1.0888 while the previous high, the first impulse at wave 0 was at 1.0925 which is 37 pips away so personally I consider that this is still wave 1, sort of rebound. I would like to see 1.0925 or above and after that, have a low in SRSI168 to say that it's wave 2.

And the wave should also be lower like the first one in your picture, the second one is a bit too high for me.

OK now your reasoning is clear to me.
I have already entered with the third size even if it is perhaps too early.
However, I took a low point so I feel satisfied.
Now all that remains is to wait for the price explosion.
Good luck

BrokeTrader - thanks for publishing this! I've just read the whole thread, and followed along from the beginning of the year. Makes sense to me and I will follow along with some test trades.

I really appreciate the commentary and you telling us your thought processes as you develop this indicator and take what you learn (about the indicator and yourself) and apply them to the next trade. More green pips to you!

Grats on another successful push. Pays off to trust the system. I am curious what you guys think of the prevailing trend line here... Something to watch

I think short term right now a bounce off your line down, but long term the larger trend looks bullish. I just went short, last trade of the week, hopefully it pays off then hope to go long next week

You're welcome and good luck with you incoming trades.
I appreciate people that take the time to read and understand rather than, well, you know...

If you have read the thread, you know that in the past I have been looking at daily, weekly and monthly charts to spot that kind of longer term trends.

Recently I have come to the conclusion that it doesn't make any sense to take care of them, not to just deny them or argue they are wrong/right views, but just because they are simply not in my trading time horizon.

I'm trying to become good in trading this system, it's the only thing I have to care about. Now if an up trend reaches the point of a major down trend, as your picture suggest, what should I do, close the trade ? No, because if you do so, you're not trading the system anymore but something else and I don't want to get lost in something else, just want to stay in something that each passing day I know more and more.

As explained in previous paragraph, here we don't trade higher time frames trends, supports, pivots, you name them. You went short because of that down trend touch before going long next week, good luck to you but we don't trade that way here, you haven't read the thread or not understood what we do here or maybe you're simply in the wrong thread.
