Again this is being dragged to the wrong side. LOL That one call could save hundred hours of someone. Not me (I'm not reading most of them) Everybody preaches something. It needs filter. Why you want spell O N E letter by letter, when you can pronounce like just 1? {quote} Said someone who brings precious metals to this thread. LOL God I don't care bout your method.
please don't be another BW, forget everyone in FF.

are you doing good in your trades ? if not, do you need help ?

me and everyone else here are willing to help (I hope ) , that's what forums are for.

otherwise, just be nice and make some friends man.

You & everyone else who saw his charts, the first time. Jaw drop time.

Just looked at Ihlas's trading philososphy on his Profile page : "Trade the Intention of Price"

Yup - He is definitely a BW groupie.

This has been a common occurrence on this forum through the years. Traders of similar styles tend to group together. Then there are those from either another group (click/gang) who interrupt (not as common - as it tends to cause turf wars) and the ones who can not, for whatever reason, comprehend how markets work, they always tend to claim some secret knowledge. When finally brought to sunlight, the screaming and all that goes with starts.

How do I know most are not willing to do the long hours. I'm living it and I see it by non-members viewing my thread when I post something market related. You would think by now they would realize I don't do signals in my journal.

I also know the above is true because there is always, during the trading week, one non-member monitoring my journal.

Plus the few complete systems that have many followers as opposed to the attempted creation or learning. Those tend to have few.

{quote} BW hid behind words successfully all this time on all the threads he has been expounding his BS. Here on this thread, somehow he dropped his guard and actually posted his charts with explanations, which was a very good start, and we all thanked him for that. However, very soon the old BW character came back, Is he 2 different people ? Jekyll & Hyde I wonder ? Of course, once he exposed his methods, it was plain to see except to his disciples, that it was at best a 50/50 method - basically a coin toss would do no better. He...



Well said Shabs.


And to this day still, not one word of reply from BW for his fake re-posted comment that "all line traders are liars".

In fact, if that was his opinion, then not one person I know would care about BWs own opinion, as we all have one.

No it was not his opinion, which started much of this current drama some six months ago, it was that he stated his opinion was indeed factual.
ie BW said "Line Traders are Liars, and that is factual".

Kev/Blue has asked BW on at least three occasions now. To please provide these facts that BW says he has.

Else, simply.
Reply here honestly and just say, BW,

"I was lying here on Andy's thread, I do NOT have any facts at all.
It was just my opinion and I wish I had been honest in the first place and said 'this is only my opinion".

But EGO won't allow him to, imho, to take one simple step and repair all the damage he has done to his own fragile reputation on here by claiming he had facts when he actually had NONE.

But each to their own I reckon,
in TRADING and in personal responsible behaviour.

Let me try and take an illogical assumption about LINE TRADERS, and even extend it right out TA TRADERS
Where there is currently a fake narrative being portrayed on BWs pointless (well to me anyway) thread, where he says such usage should not be used.

What a shame that long term traders are putting false notions into the heads of new traders. Shameful really, imho, but hey.
So I shall begin, & complete it in stages maybe is best.

- - - - - - -
re Line Traders, TA traders, all traders in fact
- - - - - - -

Imho BW could never understand line trading.
And still doesn’t to this very day, from what I observe.
And he is now drawing in other new innocent traders into his own false understandings.

Firstly I read a trader who follows BW post …. "how can a line attract price."

I mean really, this is so astounding for me to read that any trader could misunderstand such a simple concept as a horizontal line on a chart.

A horizontal line. If you follow it with your eye. Over to the right side axis of your chart. Becomes PRICE, right down to the pipette.
A Horizontal Line on a chart is actually PRICE right across your chart from the past to the future.

So how someone might think a line could attract price, when a line IS price, stumps me seriously.

But then who might PRICE be attractive to ? Come on traders think lol. Certainly not price itself.
A horizontal line is a visual cue so we don’t have to remember a 5 digit price .... AND ....
could attract or be an attractor to … a Trader or new group of traders as price reaches or stretches to those Levels.

Like pivot lines for example, I am not a pivot trader, but many are. If they are looking, then action could ensue at those levels.
And maybe a day/week/month high or low trader or a group of traders might also be looking at those.
Or recent Swing Points for Intra-day traders. A swing point shows up as a horizontal line at price on the right-side axis of your chart also.

So there are many Lines that certain groups of other traders, apart from yourself, who might be looking at those lines.
This becomes a compression of potential activity (thank you Mr Jankovsky, pdf lol)
AND
At these Lines there might be two types of Trader turn up right THERE. ONE may be a Buyer and the other a Seller. But what next or now?

Hope this stimulates some thoughts other than, useless Lines, useless TA etc, as we have NOT even got to the point of a trade yet.

… Well then we would have an area of trader interest, one wanting price to rise and the other to fall.

Creating a new tension in the market. Something has to give. Especially at an Inflection Point Squeeze.

And once that tension breaks and the rubber band snaps, price may after a moment of whipsaw even, then TAKE OFF in a singular direction for a period of time.
Traders know it as the breakout.

As well as any pivots & round numbers & hi-lo’s etc etc, astute visual traders who analyse the market in front of them will observe that other apparently random price levels ALSO form at time-intervals across their screen horizontally, which are known by traders as Structure Lines.

Structure Lines that price might then rotate around, break, test, re-test (a few times) and THEN price moves away from the Structure Lines in one direction (OR the other). Traders call it Breaks Of Structure.

And those Structure LINES themselves have less importance imho than WHAT HAPPENS after the Line is broken.
We can probably just call this trading. NO other narrative, scalp, swing, position - just Trading.

However, others might now think this is NOT POSSIBLE to trade this because it falls under a word-narrative Title such as "TECHNICAL ANALYSIS".
Do we not see now how crazy this thought is, that some have, and which is completely ILLOGICAL to me.

As doing your own analysis at those points, lines, PRICES and especially when it becomes obvious around those areas that new TRADERS are now coming in and wider price movement is possible & maybe imminent, and that the action we next take then, IS trading.


Here are some recent posts made on trading analysis observations regarding Lines, Lines Of Attraction, and (Trader) Attractors

https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...8#post14232878
I love to observe Horizontal Lines (plus I have ma’s as well), and I'm not lying either lol .
There are many Lines that can attract other market participants.
That is the work of any Line Trader observer.


https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...6#post14342266
In fact I have dislodged totally, the words S & R from my trading vocabulary (yes, completely) and have replaced them with, for myself, “Lines Of Attraction”
(attractors of BOTH buyers AND sellers as whoever is stronger at that point will prove the line as either support or resistance afterwards)


https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...6#post14315906
A kind of demarcation line, a hemisphere line etc whatever you wish to call it. Not as a set "trading line" though.
Lines to me are often attractors (for BOTH buyers & sellers) and from there we can work out biases and who might be in control "in the moment".
Important price levels is a great key for traders. Action can begin (and end) there.


Come on traders, when the chips are down it will be up to only YOU how it plays out next. Think things out. And ALWAYS ANALYSE imo.

I have literally taken hundreds of trades at the 61.8 and 50 retrace LINES plus hundreds of short term scalps at Big Round Number LINES not to mention hundreds of swings at support/res LINES and have ongoing analyses of Murray Math and Octave LINES and key Pivot LINES, so you get no arguments from this cowboy. A trader would just have to be just plain dumb to make an argument against such analyses.

And that is why I will not entertain a dialog with the gurus in FF, why my ignore list is growing...lol

I look at key market levels PMH, PML, PWH, PWL, PDH, PDL Then the Opens, including PDO, PWO. PMO

The closest levels atm are the PWL (158.254) which pipped & reversed from the week before and the PMO (160.152) sitting at Market structure,

just above PDO (London)(159.987) & Thursday Low, where price stopped at on friday close. Forming the Classic TT's Bermuda Triangle.

Price will also go back to test previous intraday highs.

This is a retracement atm from the drop unless price breaks MS to push higher. This is not a signal of any kind, just observation.

Your charts may show slightly different numbers to mine, broker related.

Well, all of them have some good points at times, but usually it’s presented as their way is the correct way, or there is some deep meaning or conspiracy or something that most of us peons just don’t understand but they see clearly, and when challenged, come out nasty, abusive and just offer more bullshit. Also, if you analyze their posts you will find some huge inconsistencies from one week to the next so no thanks, don’t need to spend a bunch of time trying to figure them out.

we are trading in a 5 Trillion PER DAY, market, a market very hard to manipulate unless your connected to inside interest rates or The Treasury or a National Banking strategy (like BOJ or SWISSY) so to come up with some of these bizarre fantasies I will leave to them to spout all they want. I’m sure they will find an example that works today but I’m not interested to spend 5 minutes of precious time on them.....I would rather watch the PA when one of our predetermined lines have been reached.
