E/U M1, one position

What is "partial canned results."?
If you look at those trades on a chart you see what i did.
And you can study it.
Or you can go do something else.
So tell me, what is it you want me to do in the best case?

It is canned as in it happened in the past.
I personally wouldn't study someone's statement of trades to learn anything from it.
You don't have to do it but if you want, post hey I'm going short or long at this price right now and I'd then look a live chart and study the pa or the chart with my fave indy's on it or naked to see how I'd feel about the choice at that given moment.

I dont see it that way. I see it the way i said. Its for my memory and maybe someone will find something usefull here.
I did not say "Its like my trophy after i got it and im being interviewed because of my accomplishments and i am saying i did it with exercise and diet and meditation etc"
You can think that if you want. And you can say that if you want.
And if thats how you see it you will go and do something else.
Im not here to talk you into something.
Im not selling anything.
Im not exactly here to make a super big effort to teach TA to a random crowd of people i cant see and never met.
I never said i was.
I said "maybe" somenoe can find something usefull here.
90% of people will not find something usefull here.
And thats not strange to me.
You might not find something usefull here.
Thats totally fine with me.
Im not going to throw myself at your leg holding it and scream "DONT LEAVE!"
Im not a televison evangelist.
This is not a cult.
Im not trying to sell you anything.

I have started 36 threads in here when ever i felt like it for 15 years.
Most conversations i have had here have not been very fruitfull to me.
Thats not very surprising to me.
Most other conversations i have with random people are not very fruitfull either.
Its just facts of life.
But im still here.
Im still talking.
When i feel like it.
And wheni dont feel like i do something else.
Like running.

I really would like to.
But there isnt enough time.
If you look at the statement you would see why.

Then its not for you.
I did not post it for you.
When i used trade explorers in the past it was sort of the same.
All you can do with it still is to study it, even if its happening live.

Right. It's a show off thread. Np.

I have found through experience that i dont have much of a choice, i understand price best on M1.
It makes little sense to me otherwise:
If in 1 minute price can go RIGHT through your S/R and your indies and your overbought/oversold and your zones and supply and demand and what ever you call it on your H1 or H4 or D1 chart, then your high TF strategy is no use.
Thats how i see it through experience.
And i never heard any kind of argument for something otherwise.
Im not telling you what to do.
If you want to look at your H1 and discuss things with people, im not going to stop you.
That dont make any kind of sense to me, but im just a dude over here, a lot of things people do make no sense to me.
But thats OK and i dont need to go around telling people i dont understand what they are doing.

I dont understand why people dont train martial arts, combat sports and armed combat with sword, axe, dagger, staff or bow.
Its an ancient tradition and i dont see any reason to stop.
I really dont.
Its OK that i dont understand that.
I dont understand people looking at D1 charts mumbling theyr incoherent nonsense, since if i where to do what they suggest i would not have any money left.
To me its incoherent.
And thats OK.
I make my own decisions, i make my own judgement.
Which i dont pass unto other people.
I let them be as they are.

I dont want to argue with you.
Go, you are free, do something else that seems nice to you.
And be happy on your way.
Good luck.

Yaed,

I read the whole thread, read it a second time and decided to take the time to translate it as accurately as possible into my native language (Polish) to better understand the message.
I will check, for my own curiosity, your trades that you showed (I already started)... yes, I will do all of that.
You mention tick charts onece or two times... do you mean one-tick charts, not based on time scale but on one-tick price change?
I found your thread interesting, the way you approached it, which fascinated me in some way. It is different than all the others.
I will also read your previous thread where you use H1 chart... now it looks like you are no longer looking at H1/M1, but instead at M1/one tick chart?
Best regards
BN.

Well i do look at the H1 and H4 and D1 and so, but only to mark down some specific price levels.
Its not very important, its just some levels that might mean something to some people.
Its usually a distance of roughly 25 pips between these levels.

Its cool that you found something you liked.
A lot of people seem to have the idea that you place a trade and then you can talk about it with other people.
I would like that too.
But since i try mostly to be in a trade just a few minutes, i cant.
And i cant really see why anyone could or would want to be in a trade longer.

I used to look at pretty much all the timeframes, H1, H4, D1 and so on.
But after thousands and thousands and trades and 15 years of trading its M1 trades that makes me the money, and concentrating on that usually does me 1% a day.
And when i end up with bad trades is when i look at H1, H4, D1 and so on.
Partially its because i dont sleep well with open positions.
And partially because i want to look at my trades all the time.
And i cant since i have a woman, a son and some stuff i need to take care of.
Like make food for my son and train 2 hours every day.
And be with my friends and stuff.
I cant be stuck staring at a screen 24 hours a day when the weather is nice.

I would want to make 2% normal day.
So i can deal with the -4% days.

If i had some programmers and some stuff i would make a tick scale based program i think.
Maybe in 4-5 years.
Or i have enough money then for a farm and i wont bother with this anymore, i dont know.
Tick scale of couse matters.
Sometimes with extreme volatility i need to close on tick scale considerations at key levels, but its rather problematic.

Anyway, im not able to tell you all here.
I would if i could.
I dont have any secrets, except my current lot size, that i keep between me and my friends and my woman.
The reason im not able to tell you all here is the same reason why a good football or baske ball player cant just tell you everything and then you understand it and become as good as they.
A lot is just practice, again and again and again. Thousands of times.
But i will tell you as much as i can an hour here and and hour there.

I have written a lot of threads here over the years, and how i trade has evolved.
Meaning i DONT trade the way i did 3 years ago.
And i CERTAINLY dont trade the way i did 15 years ago.

I sell when the lows and highs are getting lower and the and i buy when the highs and lows are are getting higher.
Its that simple.
But it never ever lasts forever.
So the hard part is to guess when.

Hi Yaed
Could you please talk more about your method?
I also trade on the one-minute timeframe
I was curious to know how you did it.
Ramin

UTC -1 hour.
You can look at it on your chart.
I press the same buttons as you.
I use metatrader 4, no indicators.

I read a book by a guy called Johan Asplund.
The book was about how to write a book.
And the answer is kind of: Press the buttons.
And this is kind of the same.
I cant transfer everything to you with words.
I dont know exactly whats happening in my mind when i trade.
And if you ask any athelte or artist how they do what they do they sure can say something.
But that doesnt mean you can do what they do right after you hear them explain.

I wish i could just ask some of the best traders how they do it, and they tell me and i get it and then i can do what they do.
But its not that easy it seems.

I might add, it works on ALL timeframes, all pairs, all instruments.
It is the ONLY way to trade that i know of.
And then of course you could use mutiple positions and such...
But this is how you read price, what its doing CURRENTLY.
Its not really predictive.
The prediction you have to make.
Because one way or the other its going to STOP.
The loww/highs will NOT go on being higher/lower for ever.
Because if it DID the world market would crash in a about 2 hours.

If someone told me: I need you to trade H4, here is 10.000.000 $ and here is 1.000.000 $ for you right now.
I would say: Ok.
And do the exact same thing im doing on M1.

2 nd trade
Its a buy.

And i closed that on like +2...

Its not that im really waiting for something really specific to happen.
Im just looking for some lows getting lower...
When ever that happens im on it.
