Thanks

Yes even Jacko is sometimes wrong. Thought in this case he wasn't. He had a great trade earlier this week. And his calls were insane and very accurate. Funny part was that I lost on Jacko trade and I made a killing on my own .
Hi Kaunasny,

I thought I was right once....but Mrs Jacko told me not to be silly.

Oil finally broke out of it's range, breaking a wave to the upside. Bias is definitely up.

I got a message from someone like a month ago asking me to message them when to buy/sell, but only when I'm 80-90% certain price is going in that direction. I wrote back telling them I can guarantee them 100% that I won't get it right 80-90% of the time

Quite scary when you get a message like that. Makes you wonder if they're following your every trade. Next thing you know, you'll get a message saying you OWE them "x" amount of dollars because you got it wrong LOL

Wow some people are lazy and want to be spoon fed. I have done a few live trades using Jacko's and your wave trading method and have been successful.
The more i stare at the charts and draw out the waves the more it clicks in. So far i really like this method, thanks zoopy

Could be laziness but I think it also has to do with them not wanting to take responsibility for their own actions. This way when they lose, they can point the finger at someone else.

btw, congrats on your trading and glad it's working for you.

Yes, you can see why Peter C. left the building. So few are willing to go to square one and build something of their own with the generous guidance of the knowledgable on this site. They would rather you just send them a check.

Zoopy has a great future. He not only has the smarts to study Jacko (and I mean really study him) but to keep his mind open and question everything. Like a good researcher he's not taking anything for granted.

In these 2 charts long term trend is up, there is a pull back, doesnt look like enough momentum to break the wave down.
I'm not trading these, just practicing.

Thanks for your kind words Sean and great advice too.

When you're trading, always question what you're using/doing. This is the fastest way to learn how to trade. So many prefer just to slap on indicators and have it show them the way. Makes me wonder about that saying... "why 95% of traders lose". Probably because 95% of traders use indicators and don't know why they're using it. Then there's EAs. Those that build EAs spend so much time programming when that time could be better spent actually learning HOW to trade. In fact... you could probably learn how to trade successfully well before you are able to program a profitable EA if that's even possible.

Not sure if this is actually going to happen but definitely possible. I've highlighted the current wave length. Whenever price makes very extreme moves like this, expect a possible retracement. Remember, the market moves in waves. Doesn't matter which direction, there will always be waves.

As greywolf pointed out in an earlier post, the eurjpy is breaking waves up and today had a pullback. I am long eurjpy.

Edit: Stop at breakeven. Son of a....

Edit: Watch out for a wave collapse on eurjpy. Forgot to look at gbpchf when I placed this trade.

Why the G/C, are you talking about the correlation between them?
I went long also, as soon as i went long it dropped about 20 pips.. dam it.

I was long at 168.17. Was up 30 odd pips... went downstairs, came back and trade was gone

Generally gbpchf leads the way. When it drops, watch gbpjpy and eurjpy in particular because there's a good possibility they'll drop too. Although... I will admit lately eurjpy seems to have a mind of it's own.

For those that are interested in Aussie, here's my 4 hour wave chart. Waves are still breaking up therefore we look for pullbacks and further wave breaks. Aussie is starting to show possible signs it wants to go up but my 4 hour period still has 3 hour left before the close. Might be best to wait for euro/london session unless it charges up.

Edit: Entered long on aussie. Lets see if this one holds up...

Edit: Closed trade with profit

Eurusd is starting to form a wave. I was looking at my 4 hour charts again and we may be seeing quite a deep retracement since the current wave up is quite extreme. I think the target points I would watch for is...

1.5700
1.5650

When in doubt, just wait for the line chart to turn north and close then base your entry off that.
