Second winner ....usdjpy break even is now locked.....reason simply because market is leaving long wicks on previous candles at the bottom....showing sellstop getting hit in smaller time frame and getting traders on the wrong side....

So just to clarify, you got out on a market order? The low for my feed was 0.8944 (bid), which wouldn't have executed your 0.8938 limit. How did you know to get out versus let the market do the work and take you out?

Don't worry Shermen, not bothering at all. So you don't wait for PA confirmation to enter?

candle close.....ussually if you have been dropping in the 1 hour tons you will get an attempt at trying to pull back a bitt ...so since price is so close to support I will get out...I use marketorders mainly....

Also you dont whant to lock the market into specific candle formation only since the market does not know what the candle is ...instead trying an understand what the rythem is and what the market is trying to do...

Ok, I think I understand better now. It does seem like you trade off a hunch (ie- trade the way you think the market professionals and market makers are trading). But it also seems that you use S/R regions to help you make that decision. And hey, if it works for you, all the better.
I will not be able to trade that way for a while... trying to follow James16 recommendations to stick to daily,weekly, and monthly charts for a while first... also I try to trade off the same timeframe, meaning if I enter on the day, I try to exit on the day.

Wads of success to you Sherman and keep posting - I think there is great insight in your style, despite not being traditional James16 PA formations.
