Have these trades got anything to do with this method?

Or do you just want somewhere to post them?
I know you mean well, but let's not turn this thread into a pissing contest like goes on in the other pound thread. Let's let EO be the housekeeper.

That was a nice buy opportunity with the bounce off the 15m 10ema.

After I took the trade and took some profit off, I set my SL at +3 and TP of 4500 and went to bed.
Thank you.

EO...if the 15min closes below the 10ema...does it still usually bounce off the 21 or might we see it down to the 35?...if you don't mind answering...

if you open your daily, you will see that this area is rejection zone (4630-4540) for sellers and for buyers.

so, plus the round 1.4600 number, i prefer to short it.

first question answered, the second is not necessary.

Which is a good call, knowing that 4630-4650 area is another resistance point.

Good job.....

The question was, if you care to read it properly " have the trades anything to do with this method"

This post talks about an MT4 platform that has it as well as other single currency indexes.

Do you have it yet? If not, I'll get you a link to a meta platform that has the dollar index on it.

i explain better fourx, just i trade what i see, GU needs correction.
in 5 min chart ( i watch it) the candle that move till 1.4600, does not touch it, and close red, 1º short open at the open of the next candle, then it move up, next candle made a doji below the high and i take the 2º short position on the close of that candle.
you can see that it rebound in the 15' 10 ma but doesn't made new high after that, so i don't close my trades.

in 4550 i close one and let the other one run till 1.445, (monthly pivot, Weekly R2, daily R1) stop looses at be +10...

is the answer you need it? hope was helpful to understand why i did what i did.
