{quote} Yep, thanks for the heads up, I trade like a rabbit in an out , step by step, up or down my ladder. ps I can only paper trade at the moment as my wife took a really bad fall, the result being just over a week ago she had a full replacement elbow, I now have loads of new tasks added to my Daily chores plus attending to the Boss'es constant needs. The plus factor is that it as given me the time to really put Laura method to the test and I do have to say I see great potential in it, having said that as you know me I[/highlight]...
Oh no, sorry to hear about your wife. Best wishes to her and hope for a swift recovery. Weirdly enough, my nearest neighbour did the exact same thing a couple of weeks ago, tripping over too-long curtains! He didn't need the replacement though...wow, that's a biggie!

You and your Murrey Grid, right enough, lol. I am the same with S+D and now Cam-Levels. Just tools in the box, right?

Right, enough chat, get back to your chores!

Hi Laura hope you're well, going to sound like a really newbie question but can you run this on trading view or do you have to have the program setup you are using? I'm using tradingview and mt4 mobile, just seen your thread and would like to give your way of trading style a try mines pretty similar but sometimes fall short on the entry and exits

I had a request from degolep to change the values in the RSI Trendstrength indicator when it turns red and green. I made the RSI value for Red and Green configurable in settings then each can have his/her own preference. {file}
Dear LauraT

Are we at liberty to therefore replace the copy of this indicator on your indicator list on page 1 with this update?

Morning Laura.
I have a one minute Dow. The arrowed trades I am happy with from my normal trading but are they in line with what you would do on 'RoadMap' please?
Also
The other possible longs ( price over 200ma) marked in elipses, are they valid longs as per your thinking?
Apologies in advance for taking up your time which is appreciated.

Hi

For the arrowed trades, I would only take longs due to channel being above SMA but, as you say, those are how you normally trade, which is fine.

On the other possible longs, you don't have to jump in when price is falling. You can wait until action starts to round out and then enter inside the channel. All valid entries, just a matter of timing.

Hope this helps.

Actually traded it both ways. Catching the down move now after it rejected the daily open line.

Might be worth putting the daily open line on your chart. That's what stopped it rising.

Hi LauraT
I thought I had the daily open line (yellow line) on my chart. Different opening time? probably something I'm doing wrong!
Tempted short now but price some distance from SMA so will be watching closely
cheers

Ah, yes - different broker times. Mine is Central European Time.

If you want yours to be the same you can play around with the setting on the indicator
