so it's not what james16 and most ppl trading and stuyding here?
It is ....You simply start trading mechanical at first and with time you evolve and you actually see what price is telling you...sometimes its a candle and sometimes its simply wht price is trying to do....a couple of guys here sometimes judge their entries primerly because of what price is doing and the candle is simply the result of what it did a couple of guys have good experience and some of them do it already without actually knowing it....

thanks anyway, but I think all ppl here talking about candle close.

I think ppl talking about candle pattern, IB OB PB etc, but I dont see those on ur chart.

I searched and found u post same chart on "No Brainer Trades" thread too, so u mean ur trade is related to both trading system?

No offending, but I m very confused by ur entry, im sure some other newbie too cos no candle pattern for entry to us

I don't always understand Shermenator's charts, well, I do when he points out why he took the trade, but it will take more years experience for me to see these trades set-up.

But I do greatly appreciate his charts. He is just posting a little more advanced version of J16, and it is nice to know there is more out there to learn, and more trading opportunities.

Please keep posting these types of trades Shermenator. I do look over BRV thread time to time, and I can see how it is very useful, yet very similar to what we do here (support, resistence, price action, location, location, location), yet gives more opportunities for good trade entry.

I trade what price is doing....not a candle in specific if price gives the candle its simply what price is doing ...candles come with price ....many people are still to focuse on what the candle means and not on what proffesional money is doing...I always ask myself if the candle formation aligns with what market makers are attmpting to do...I look at price overall and what market makers would do and if they are trying to actually get trders on the wrong side of the trade or if the candle formation is actually ready to really workout
QFT

I find that this aspect of price action is quite lacking around here, which is understandable given that it is aimed at newbie traders. Just the lack of openness to talking about it is slightly discouraging.

Once you can trade candlesticks it would do well to learn how to recognise the price action that they represent without actually having the candlestick formation spell it out for you.

bonne chance

Hi guys,

Question for the pro's:
I have shorted e/j 115.80 as of last night daily IB which confluence with BEOB on 4H.
went my way 50p or so came back to hit my sl which was already at b/e+3.

Would you re-enter the trade as it did not fulfill the BEOB yet?
some say "there always the other trades, after s/l don't trade the same".
other would say "we suppose to be not emotionally involved (pro's), and this is still a good trade"

Please enlighten me

I personally would not have taken it as a 4H setup as it is straight into support.

If you were playing it as a daily you should still be in it, TP1 of about 114; if equities make new lows as I expect you should get more out of it than that.

I would'nt want you to do that....

A short at the daily Ib was a nice entry point however considering the fact that price has travlled some serious distance down and is sitting nicely on a trendline, I don't think it's worth it anymore...

On a sidenote, The DJI (which is strongly correlated with the yen crosses the major ones like Eur/Jpy specially) has come down to a very very important ppz and is already showing signs of support at it...

Regards,
Ghous.
