Hey Steelhead , what about the entry around 1.3100 post#1182, i dont like the way you give commentary when the trade is over, i'm sure you have time to post your entries?

Thanks

FOURX I lost on that trade 80 pips i loose every now and and again. I give commentary before the trade is over as well, and if you dont like it dont read my journal. This is my private thread if you dont like it follow the herd on cable thread.

watch how price reacts around highlighted area. If it takes several hours and doesnt break up that will signal we are headed down again.


this is where learing how to manage a trade and read a chart comes in real handy. If it keeps hitting off that area take profit.

FOURX and other naysayers always fail to mention when i give these trades before they happen.

This one was talked about before it happened. Oops another trade for 400+ how you like them apples FOURX?

Steelhead

All right Steelhead, I see you are counter to all of the indicator stuff that people use on the many forums here. I have been a reader of the cable thread for a couple of months. I agree with you that everybody has some sort of method they use to enter exit trades with varying degrees of success.

What confuses me with some of the comments/examples is that some of the charts are just full of junk. Hell you need a college dgree to figure it out.

I am a newbie, but somehow I just believe that it has to be more simple and less cluttered than what is being presented. with all of the fibs, ganns, ma etc. I have seen your post many times on the cable thread telling people they dont need that junk only look to price action support and resistance.

So that led me to post here on your thread. Ill read through your thread to see if I can determine what methods you use for entry exit etc.

Although if you could lead/teach me about what you look for in price action etc.

Thanks.

hi steelhead.

the post 274 was relating to a/u not e/u, where was your reference to e/u?

I am not a naysayer, i just want to follow in as close to realtime as poss. but i'm missing something?

thanks

Your geenline on your chart is at 1.9645?, you didnt say dotted line!

And you are having a 350 pip stop , is that correct?

Thanks, i'm trying to understand your method!

My buy was at 1.9760 or so i think look at my green buy line.

Stops are 260 below that. Now though I have taken profit and stops at entry.

Look at your four hour chart and you will see why i placed my stop down there. if it went down i would have added more.

No matter now though its a profitable trade
