Steelhead, give me all ya got baby! lol

I'm looking at 1.5550 on my new 4 hour that just popped up for a possible retrace then down again based on the bearish bar. I'll be looking to see that area again, although I won't be adding another position. I'm looking to check out a few other markets as well right now.
I dream, therefore I become.

I'd be looking to see a retracement, but after that, yes we can my friend IMO.

you have a deal when i get a close on the lows on four hour i will buy up as much as you want me too.

I believe this is a sucker play. I have been wrong before but I really think they dipped it too get you folks short then up she will go.

the lower she goes the more I will buy

That's normally how it goes my man. The suckers short on the low lol I'm still thinking we are in bear mode though after a retracement.

If you dont have a good entry just dont chase it, that's all.

As Mike just stated, there may well be a retracement to 5550 maybe even 5580 but I don't see any evidence of a reversal in sight just yet...

That's over 1000 pips now on my short- it's going to be a good week!

p.s. if anyone has identified that the trend is down, yet still feels it's too late to short, just make an entry on a small retrace and allow for it to move against you 300-500 pips. You won't regret it.

Mike you are so correct but why dont some in here ever learn. The people that move the market dont sell as market is going down. They buy in these situations when the market is going down.

Push it down as much as you can get the retail traders selling into holes and you make lots of money.

Principles of buying low and selling high hasnt changed.

Ane here we are back to the beginning lol Now I am just going to set my stop loss for plus 5 on that last trade and watch them run until I am able to set my lower entry stop loss into profit as well and watch us slowly touch 152s.
i step out... but thanx for the input

from what i heard you say:
0) we are in strong bearish market
1) sell on the rallies (look for high fractals) on 5 and 15 minute charts
2) put stops a few pips above high of the rally
3) move stop to 1 pip profit as soon as you are positive on the trade (10 pips)
4) wait till either target (5200) or stop get hit


question do you ever move up your stops (i.e. trailing 50 or 100 pips)?

steelhead,

no offense but you always seem to be on the wrong side of the daily trend..

Just saying..
Trade what you see, not what you think.

well ill tell u what i do... i know mike is gonna answer too... i dont use stop loss.. but i keep an eye on the order... and sometimes close it manually
that makes sense; however using a 100 pip stop would help just in case something crazy happen

Non taken I havent bought yet i wait for a four hour candle close.

That's a retracement on a higher timeframe. Check it out. On that lower timeframe, you see three steps down. Zoom out to a higher one and you'll just see 1. That large move upwards is the retracement for that one before continuing down for the larger second thrust downwards.

Confusing yet? lol Look at it for a while and I think you'll understand what I mean.

GU will tank, and it will tank hard

Selling is what you do, you don't buy when GU is tanking, that's just plain stupid.
