I have noticed this pattern before, E$ goes up and $J goes down. Sometimes there is more noise at this time, but this looks like a clean move. Both show opposite reversal in weekly/daily.
Any thoughts?

They are pretty easy to manage when they act the way they're suppose to. lol

Take the Daily BUOB on the Gbp/Usd. Price breaks hard and may never look back. This action of how Price breaks the trigger should not be ignored when looking to confirm your setup.
Agreed 100%

Problem is I am short of time and trades like these even when on the daily can't be left for 10 flat hours on their own,( mt4 isn't all that great anyways when it comes to managing a trade professionally via stop or trail orders.) They need to be watched more...

This is precisely the reason I've been more picky than I usually like to be and focusing a lot on the location part of my trades

Ghous.

Hi all,
this was a very busy week for me..University exam

This week i took only 2 trades, and they worked well:
- USDCAD weekly BEOB
- GBPUSD weekly pin bar

BUT i exited too early, and didn't let my profits run. I'm really starting to understand the extreme importance of MM and trading plan...

BTW, on weekly TF i can't see any wonderful setup..The only setup i like is the daily IB on EURUSD..just posted by Ghous
I think it's a quite interesting setup, i'll try it on my demo account.
I particularly loved this setup on the aussie/cad for it's location

I enjoy your posts and insight your provide with your posts Ghous, keep it up.

With the IB setup on the EUR/USD would you take the break of the IB to the downside or the break of the bar before it?

Im still trying to get a hang of IB. I started off with PB's, then Outside Bars now, I'm trying to get a feel for IB's.

Thanks
Thanks Bwise,

this thread's just a big market place. I bought all this a while ago and now selling it out to you guys, hope you can keep the wheel rolling

I'll go for the break of the IB itself and not the bar before it.

Hi Ghous,

My feeds are quite different from yours; especially the pin bar: on my feed it seems more to be an indecision bar rather than a pin bar. It is also quite small if compared with previous bar.

By the way, i like this setup, there is a confluence of some interesting elements.
Will you play it at the break of the bar, i suppose?

Regards,
bakko

It used to be that EU and Uchf were 90% correlated, but lately thats been slipping of, although % wise Uj isn't that well correlated, the chats look very interesting.
here's a chart from Mataf.com on correlation
80% + same direction
80% - oposite
less than 60% no real correlation

it's strange to see your charts and then look at the numbers

Charts are 2 day pins. E$ 1.32-1.33 looks good for TP1, $J 99.5 TP1. I'm not sure where you got the 85 from. PB looks much better on $J than E$.

It took me awhile to find the periodcon to make the charts look like what I saw. Maybe this will help.

Hi Ray,

You will need to use a period converter to do this. See Jarroo's posts on this below:

Hmmm, I just copy the files to the following directory:
program files > meta trader 4 > experts > indicators
Restart MT4 and it should show in the navigator pane on the left hand side under custom indicators.

Hope that helps.

Didn't you go to "File" and click "Open Offline" . Pick your time frame and pair you convertered and Click "Open". Then just add your template.
Indicators show the past. Price Action "Indicates" the future.

Mea,

That's strange as I don't seem to have any problems.

After you moved the indicator over to the chart, did you go to:
file > open offline

You should have the following window where you can select the converted periods (for the example I applied the indicator to the USDJPY chart):

Sorry Mea, don't know what to suggest.

I see Jarroo is online, perhaps he has come across this before. I'm afraid I can't be of much more assistance
