Not exactly a proxy pin in my books, because the pin itself isn't that good.
The close is too much in the middle and quite a bit further down from the open. The proxy idea I can see though. It's just that the pin is not great looking.
My opinion of course. This could work out in the end.

Hey Mat, glad to see you're coming along after joining me on the light side of the pin bar force ;p

Matty

Hi,
I have just found these 500 odd pages about pinbars and I wonder if there is an actual definition that I should be looking for. This is a new idea that I would like to investigate
Thanks

short gold.

DBHLC to the pip BUT and we see a weekly pinbar forming but the most recent pin was just negated by a BEOB. I am not gonna trade this after having been burned on the nice silver PB but it's gonna be interesting.

why not,actually???

don't be affraid - i dont mean you should or have to trade it, but if only fear prevents you from doing so than let it go.

find real reasons not to trade - the worse outcome is a loss well managed that you can expect to come at the breakof these TBH, so...fear is not a reason not to trade, just my thoughts.

Good Luck

If it closes like this we have a very nice 2 Day Pinbar on EURUSD. It comes off the trendline and a smoll resistance from 11/27.

It might be fear that prevents me from taking the gold DBHLC but it's not an A setup in my mind because you would short against a VERY strong uptrend and calling tops is much more difficult than just participating in the trend. The thing is that really the best moves come from all time lows and highs if a trend reversal does happen.

Difficult decisions...

well - i guess that maybe because i dont like this cliches i dont trust them..

this is what i would expect to happen at the top..and if you would check the 4h and 1h, you will see that today a lot happenned...

it is not like you are going to trade an IB at the top for a reversal..you are thinking of trading a reversal pattern, at the top, with some kind of resistance, and a PA..thats how i look at it - and only the market can prove me wrong...
or something else that i might see when i will look at my charts at the end of the day - 2 hrs from now for me...

Hi Fuzzle! Hi all!

I drew this line different. Currently bouncing off of a more immediate resistance line.

Currently bought a small parcel at close of pin on 1 hr chart. (plus spread ended up 82.95)

Looking to watch him from here. Though may develop into a curl and break yet. Let's see.

The commercials are going long too which was one of the reasons I went short.

Good to be back mate.

Have kind of lurked occasionly. Family business got very busy mid year (our peak season) Couldn't find the patience for a while.

Took a while to get back to the swing of the charts again. Isn't it amazing how much you rely on having a 'feel' for the price action on top of your knowledge?! LOL

I've got a COT subscribtion somewhere! Occasionly look at them. Just payed the sub too. Can't remember the link for the minute. LOL

The idea I have for the trade this time is the close Stop Loss you can set. A pin bar , set on a Tom DeMarke line, Stop on other side.

Even if we only make it to the 38.2% ret, I'm almost at 2:1 reward. (Thus the small parcell) (The spread screwed it a little.)

For a short trade there is no close stop area I would be comfortable using just yet.

If this indeed breaks down and then returns to that trend line, I'd be happy to do the inverse of what I have done this time. And definetly will if the price action is a compliment to that idea.
