Anyone notice this pin on the USD/CAD. Based on my chart it looks like you could get around a 75 pips before hitting a weekly confluence level as well as trend line support.

What do you guys think of my entry, stop and tp levels? I realize that this isn't a great trade, due to lack of space, but it's for learning.

Entry - 1.2175
stop - 1.2250
TP 1 - 1.2100

Not actually a pin mate. As it didn't close within previous bar.

True. Another thing is, you're trading directly into weekly/daily PPZ. Though, it may just break ignoring the PPZ but we must put possibility on our side. SL (if on top of PB) is larger than the reward, not worth for the try. JMHO.

Didn't see anybody talk about it, here's my trade from yesterday. Nice pin on the AUD/NZD, plenty of space created and then a good large pin touching off the 800 level. Stop at BE.

enculée,

So you use linux-based software for trading? What broker/platform?

Hi James, just a quick suggestion: If possible could you use the same screen capture software as Mike? The one you use creates videos that can only be played back on windows, my house is entirely Linux/OS X + one virtual copy of windows at a pinch.

Yes I'm still in my 2nd half and moved my stop loss just under 1.4200 level. I can't post a chart right now.

Chart.

Obviously if there is any Daily bearish Price Action or a reversing PB, I'll adjust my position accordingly.

It also helps that my account size is not as big as Jim's. lol.

Basicly once my 1st taget/1st half was hit and my 2nd half move to break even, I was going to let ride until Daily Price Action tells me to get out. Ignoring the large pip swings of 200-300 pips is hard to do but I have nothing to lose and a whole lot (no pun intended) to gain.

Sorry, this is probably pretty dumb, but does anyone have the weekly and daily pivot levels, without the midpoints or those SR1 SR2 things? I've seriously downloaded like 6 different pivot levels, and I turn off the midpoints, but it won't go away! Even went into the programming to try to figure that part out (oh my), but couldn't get it working. Ty in advance.

That looks extremely bullish...would not personally consider shorting it at that point, PA or not. I would not be surprised if it retraced 100% of that fib you have on there.

edit: woops, just saw your other chart and realised you don't want to short it, my bad.
