I was expecting a bit if a bounce from that 1st line on Friday. Too much momentum I guess.

Looking to really cash in on this one, thats awesome. Just so I'm clear your Green dotted line on the chart is your entry with the lower red dotted line being your stop and the upper red dotted line being a possible exit?

Hi,

Can you give reason or point of view of your entry. As i understand from previous posts you mention: Buy low Sell highs. Now is almost 400p from your previous set up, when you look for entry on e/a.
Thanks in advance!

Hello Steelhead

Firstly i appreciate your posts they are most helpful. If i may can i ask a few questions.

1.Do you use limit orders or only market at close of bar?
2.Do you trade mainly using 4 hr bars?
3.Do you use also daily S and R ?
4.Do you use Fibs ?
5.Are round numbers relevant to you ?
6.What do you mean by solid bars ? Does this mean no wicks ?
7.For stop loss of 80 pips would you also use this with say AUD / JPY where 80 pips is rather large ?

Sorry for so many questions but any assistance you can provide would be appreciated.

Keep up the good work Steelhead! Don't let naysayers get under your skin. The funny thing is they all KNOW why this works; they just don't want to admit. 80% of the time the market does one thing, and 20% of the time the market does the other. It's sooo simple!

I like the look of that trade too Steelhead.
Nice triangle on the 4hr, ripe for a breakout.

I'm very tempted myself!
If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

1. No limit orders I like to be the one pushing the button to make sure everything is the same as i saw it before/

2. Yes mainly on the four hour timeframe sometimes on the one hour

3. Yes I will look to daily for s/r levels

4. No i dont use fibs

5 Yes round numbers are they are natural bouncing areas

6. Yes no wicks or tails

7 80 is my standard stop but on volitile pairs i will go up to 200
