Well, I let everyone judge by himself as I don't want to open a debate about drawing trend-lines and everyone can have its own view.

{quote} Hi Oracheal, Don't fall in the trap of the perfect strategy, this is not one and that just doesn't exist. What I'm trying to do is simply to find a way of limiting the risk when trading it. Always be alert when you trade any strategy, including this one !
Perfection is achieved....
Not when there is no more to add....but
When there is no more to take away.

You may be right broketrader. Anticipation to upside movement is indeed supported by 0.618 fibo level too other than broken TL. Lets see if this hold true we may be seeing 1.272 fibo level or maybe even 1.618 level thus triggering the next uptrend movement.

I entered half of my position as suggested by broketrader as anticipation signal around 50% retracement level. Lets see how this go

Well I think that if you apply any kind of anticipation it could only be valid if price at least cross the 96 sma and the SRSI is closed to trigger but not quite.

It's not important for me to be right or wrong, as long as I follow the system I'm doing right.

Now, I don't follow you with your fib price projections, why try to predict what the price will do when in fact you just have to follow the events ?
That adds complexity for nothing. Now, anyone is free to use whatever (s)he wants for its targets, I just want to emphasize that it's not part of the system.

That said, good luck with your trade!

If you wait for all the indicators to be near the indication of the signal, then you're not anticipating anymore, you're almost at step 2. (signal).
Now, you've forgot one important event, re-read post #565, I anticipate when the break of the trend-line occurs as this is often an important sign of direction change.

Why are you not following your system.

1hour EurUsd didn't cross the 96 moving average and rsi as well didn't cross the 30 level.
system is still showing its sell signal

Man, it looks like you don't understand what you read or that you just don't follow and don't read my posts so go back and read post #565 because I won't explain every time for everyone !

Time to move to next trade and implement the new entry strategy. After a series of three Lower Highs and Lower Lows, we got suddenly a Higher High plus a break of the recent trend-line, two reasons to initiate a long trade. There is still the possibility of this being only a counter-trend given the short age of 20-12 (half week) so instead of adding 50% as Anticipation entry I will go with 33%, of final position, another 33% will be added at step 2, this will limit my exposure in the case 20-12 resumes. On the MM side, I have also reduced my total...
It was too early to anticipate there even with a small counter-trend.

Next time wait for the SMA to be tested (3rd event) in a new swing and draw the trend-line from there.
Re-entered short.

Definitely, I'm having it all wrong these days

20-12 trend-line broken and entered anticipation trade, let's see if we get the signal this time and price doesn't turn back under the trend...

It cannot always be perfect trends and setups and it's fine for an individual to make a pause when he doesn't "feel" the market.

Personally, I don't want because these are, in fact, the best moments to verify if my strategies are solid or just pure crap.

Stay safe!

I closed my position at the break of the trend line. If downtrend continue, that's without me, I will wait for a new trend. Be careful everyone!

Hi BT, I've read through the first 10 pages but wondered if you've made any comments around how you re-enter a trade. So for example, say you sell into a down trend and you close at 100 pip gain. You're happy with your profit. BUT the trend then extends further down and you recognise this could keep going for a while. Do you wait for a trend line rejection or are you looking more for an SMA96 rejection before entering in again?

Enjoying this forum, best one I've found on here. Feel everyone is equal and learning together.

Hi Gofitty, the best trend that illustrates your question is 20-8

The trend had an initial angle and then it accelerated but in between, the first trend was broke like we were going to have an up-trend, like maybe what we are having right now.

So, with the latest entry strategy, I would have closed my short trade at (1), and entered a long 30-50% (anticipation), then I would have closed that long at a loss at (2) and re-established my previous short trade because we are again under the trend, then closed that short at a loss again and re-entered long 30-50% again at (3), and then closed again that long at a loss and re-established my short again at (4)

A bit messy transition period where you get losses but all is paid back largely when the down-trend resumes, we see it visually.
