you're joking right....?

Running a business based on what others (not interested in your personal success) have to say, is not the best way to run a successful enterprise.

Have a look at a bigger picture and see what are your chances...

You're right. Thanks for the chart.

Quick question, how does one put the blue "zones" on their charts? I've been using horizontal lines to remind myself of strong PPZ's but I'm curious to see how I like looking at is as a zone.

You can use the rectangle tool under Insert - Shapes - Rectangle (just change the color properties to whatever you like)

For me looks interesting, I can see some TL
and fibo 70
if next h4 closes below my ema8 I will be happy, but what with 1,600 level
I do not know if it worth taking

Peter
uchf did exactly what I said
not much but 84 pps to 1600

looks a bit like this one..
still on holliday but happened to see this one .
Little bit, but no break. Until that happens, it's just a 60-70ps intra-day play.

It was based entirely on the breakout and retest of the daily ppz Mark or you had something else running in your mind?

another trading plan drafted this morning..

1.break of a daily ppivot
2.retrace to rac's favorite
3.blind entry short
4.stop above 61fib and ppz confl
5.free trade now with some profit locked
6.tp? everyone knows, I posted in reply to hipcio few days ago

p.s. now that I think about it. it's somehow similar to what James was talking about in his BEST EVER webinar last night..., or perhaps I'm seeing things... quite possible..
.
I liked Your trade so much - I could not watch it patiently and ... I am also in free trade now - though I do not have any profit locked - I hope - yet

Im getting to the stage where I want to have as little as possible on my charts, a few major weekly pivot zones, just lime bars on a black chart and draw a fib temporaily now and again to show confluence.

I had an indicator I created (Im a programmer) to mark PA bars, but it occured to me that the bars are just shapes to help people recognise what price is doing, they shouldnt have strict rules applied, we should look at what price is doing near an S/R area, i.e. it made a run and got rejected, not its a pin bar with close below the eye etc.

I know most of you guys will know this, the simplier it gets the better.

No way of changing them. (As far as I know anyway) I have seen a number of people ask and nobody has a way f doing it yet.

If you move your stop to BE+1 then you lock in some profit..
1ps profit is better than a loss. And one day you may find that one pip be worth $1000.... I know, James' pips are worth that much from time to time...

Hi Mark,

I'm a big believer in round numbers. Try to draw levels just on the big ones (1, 1.05, 1.1, 1.15, 1.2, etc.) and look back to the history how price reacts with such levels on daily charts. There are quite often moments of reversal.

Have a nice day,

Ajchi

so I lock 1pip now

Mines are on round numbers, except the 70 one must have moved it accidentally.
