{quote} Love the cast of characters !.... Just a squirrel after a nut, K
Although sometimes the nuts get crushed

Done for the day.. I always make errors while trading..or should I say things I can always improve on + errors...
But thats the game constant daily improvement.

Today I missed my long entry on US30 then took a later entry that was profitable +16 or so..But closed it as didnt like the level I bought,
possibly would have stopped me out 25pts+- generally are my stops on Oil indices etc. Oh well done

Oil was great and went it heavy as I liked the setup... Only execution error was getting up to refill coffee (and tossed a few nuts outside)
came back and my TP was missed by a squirrels whisker !

So not to be greedy decided to move TP up to +52 from 62..Luckily it got hit before price reversed....All reality I should have just closed trade at
+42-45 or so I think it was at... So an error there as well..

Stop was moved to BE+4 AFTER i saw price close below Prev Day NY equity open...Green line highlighted by Zeppelin Circle/ellipse
Notice how price was rejecting that area..then once closed below stop pulled to the BE....

Thats it for the week,,,

Really wanted to point out the Importance of :
TIMINGS-LEVELS-BEHAVIOUR OF PRICE / TIMINGS-LEVELS-BEHAVIOUR OF PRICE

New hours..new 15m 1hr 4hr candle etc... TIMING
00-25-50-75-00 PDH PDL etc HORIZONTAL SET IN STONE...LEVELS
Pin Bars/Engulfments..DTs DBs H&S etc...BEHAVIOUR OF PRICE,,,,, AROUND TIMINGS AND LEVELS !!

How can these things enhance what you are currently doing ? May be something to look at

Cheers
Blue

SPOT ON. Watch the Levels & Reactions

S2 level a good place for a possible reversal, as market had made ADR for the day and at level S2

Chart of Art.

Steve your charts are really top notch A+...
Market Structure King... I really encourage anyone and everyone to check Steve's thread out...

You want to learn structure and how to trade it...
Steve's charts are second to none IMO and we have some great charts here .

The 1m chart is really not to busy when you cut out the crap and focus on levels behavior etc...all of a sudden a engulfing candle in the 1m takes on great importance as an ex

Cheers guys .. absolutely love these last few charts of Shabs and Steve's...

Not sure who invented the wheel or whether it was ever copyrighted.

Make sure you always have an agreed percentage in royalties and you are made for life. Not give them away as Tesla did.

A Genius but a poor businessman.

The wheel was invented in the 4th millennium BC in Lower Mesopotamia(modern-day Iraq), where the Sumerian people inserted rotating axles into solid discs of wood. It was only in 2000 BC that the discs began to be hollowed out to make a lighter wheel.

This innovation led to major advances in two main areas. First, transport: the wheel began to be used on carts and battle chariots. Second, and more importantly, it contributed to the mechanisation of agriculture (animal traction, crop irrigation) and craft industries (for example, the centrifugal force of the wheel is the basic mechanism in windmills).
without patience how can you be a trader?

Just a small issue of when first opening the charts , the line will appear a little skewed, but current line price label will print correctly.

Refreshing the chart, by changing timeframe, then back, it sorts that issue out. Only happens with the most current line.

Need to look at the code to sort that out.

Ps; you can adjust the size of the price box, in input "probe size"
