This is not a complaint it just that if I don't know why someone is doing what they a doing I am not going to take a trade until I understand why
Davids - This thread is fast and furious, but if you have questions please put them out there. It might take some time to get an answer, but EO, Infinity, etc have been great about getting back to the questions at some point.

EO and Infinity are doing an incredible job and for this I will always be grateful, you are correct EO and Infinity have always answered my questions, I was just asking that if people made a call they backed it up with analysis or a reason as to why they were doing what they were doing, EO and Infinity always find the time to do this and has helped me a lot.

I don't remember if it was you or not earlier that was asking about a long trade I posted I had gotten into. Anyway, whoever had the question about my trade asked EO to explain it. I thought that was a little strange, but since they wanted EO to explain, I stood aside and let him.

It was probably better that he was the one to explain it, anyway, because I don't know how to post a chart. Someone was kind enough to try and explain how to do it, but I'm so computer illiterate that it didn't matter. I'm the kind of idiot that has to see someone do something with a computer to be able to duplicate it.

Now, if you want someone to tear down and rebuild an engine or come up with a workable formula to make medicine, then I'm your man. Computers....not so much!

EO, your little thread has probably helped me have a better understanding of PA than anything I've ever read. I can't imagine those overpriced forex systems have anything on your methods. Thanks for your untiring efforts.

I would like to Thank you very much for this thread. It is one of the best going in my humble opinion. I actually have a thread teaching price action on another site , But it is a beginners thread. Teaching Swings, Fibs, and basic trend lines.

I have always only tried to learn Price Action for my own trading. I am very much enjoying the challenge of getting up to speed with others here.. Hope we continue to profit in such a enjoyable and friendly manor.

Cheers and Thank You Ken

Cisco I hope you weren't offended but it was me who asked the question about the trade you took. I am even more computer illiterate than you and am trying to figure out how to use the quote reply on this thread.

EO, this is an awesome thread. I have learned a tremendous amount in a very short period of time and have made some positive pippage. Your 1 hour 62 ema trade alone has been extremely profitable. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I don't think I can add much to the previous sentiments posted on your thread. They pretty much cover it.

I've learnt loads from this thread but its quite obvious that I still have lots more to learn, so please keep up the good work, that goes for infinity too, and the others who post their charts, positons and questions.

And the pdf guide on page 1. Above and beyond the call of duty.

A big thank you!!

It is evident to me also by the growing number of members and guests alike veiwing your thread that your efforts and those of the other contributors in helping others learn is truly appreciated..

As for positive pipage, I took 8 trades tonight locked in green on all bar 1 that lost me .2 of a pip. all down to trading what I see! as shown.
Flyin' by the seat of my pants.......Talk to me Goose.

Don't worry about it. No offense taken.

Maybe we should start an accompanying thread on how to use a computer.

Short 4070.

I got in because of a cross of the h1 50, and a bounce off the 618 fib. The trade's not looking too great right now. Maybe it'll come around

Pippi and Cisco - What platform are you guys using? If you'd be so kind as to share, we might be able to offer some advice on how to post a chart as long as Cisco promises not to post any images related to his "biological crossover indicators"..
