I entered for a long at the red arrow... and i lost!
Anyboby kind enough to comment on what i did wrong ?
thanks
Other than being right at the pivot it looked like a good setup to me, with a low risk stop that I would have taken.

The good thing is that you got another great entry about an hour later that would have erased your loss and put you in the green the question is did you take it?

Great entry an hour later you're right!... unfortunately i wasn't in front of my screen anymore :-(
Next time i'll be more cautious at the pivot. Thanks for your comments!

Can't win them all....I had something similar earlier today on GU. Lost 15 and immediately entered in opposite direction. Both were valid entries near 21SMA...net of two trades was +12. Nothing wrong with your entry....but the point was already made...did you take next entry. Cause you would have made it all back and more.

I certainly didn't mean anything negative by that, it was just an observation...I brought it up as this is something I struggle with, taking the next signal soon after a loss....

Good luck!

TK...do you, or does anyone else, know how to move the labels for each line on the SDX-Pivots to the far right instead of the far left?
Thanks
CanuckCT
I wasted a whole bunch of time trying to figure that one out myself. No joy.

However, when you put your mouse cursor over a line it tells you what line it is so I have made do with that

Was the line showing your entry or your exit?

Here's an indicator I have that pop/up alerts the break of Hi/Lo of any desired time period(s). Will plot 3 at once and fits nicely over top of the ant-GUBreakout.
Any chance the new arrow indicator can be posted separately ?

I personally wouldn't have taken that one because it's too far from the 21 SMA for me.

So, what is triggering your entries? You seem to not be using the "candle eating" trigger.

Good point...it was very far from it. Also I would hesitate to pull a trigger because big move already happened two candles before. + I never trade Australia session.

Oh, Ok. "Good feeling" is one of the best indicators in a trader's toolbox.

I think that's called looking at price action....it just looked like it was going down and it was a good setup. I think you are indeed reaping the benefits of TK's method, which it using price action as your primary indicator.

Thanks Canuck! I've placed 10 trades using this system today and haven't lost one. I know a loss is coming but the small SL and 80% chance of getting that back and more makes this a very attractive system. It's making trading fun again.
