Brov have to be honest.....Look at........the momentum this is falling with....
A break out could be severe...short term totally different ball game...

a bounce and trend are 2 totally different ball games...

I would like to see the test which I am expecting of 158.10

Lets see good luck

Yep I agree - but I'm always a bit wary of this pair - could go either way altho I think the longer term trend(up) will prevail.

It seems to have stopped dead at 157-ish (PPZ) so I think it'll go up from here.

For a list of many MT4 brokers, see here. I think it's reasonably up to date.
Sir David,
Thanks! my list was more about the brokers i have tried & those of which i know the timezones of vis-a-vis GMT.
Thank for sharing that here.


Quoting ghous
All valid points...
Besides why would you need a diff color to show you a supp or res level? If price is above it the level it will hold as support and if price is below it the level will hold as resistance.
ghous,
why so strict? LOL
color is a personal thing.
if sunnytrader trades better with those colors, no problem with that.
Glad to see u post here!

Hallo this is my first post on this thread.I am learning a lot from you thanks to everybody.
Now i need your help once again.....i have the attached EA to manage my position.Setted like now it opens two positions with a stop loss of 40 pips and first target at 20 pips.Once the first TP is reached it brings the stop loss to BE and 2nd lot must be closed manually.
I'd like to modify this EA in the BRV style.....i mean i want it brings the stop loss to BE once i am 10 pips profit,close the first lot at 20 pips profit and have a trailing stop for the 2nd lot.

I hope i have been clear enough......

Of course i hope that everybody can find this EA useful apart from the result.

No market confluence with my 1.395.

1.40 next for a short EUR/USD, also 38% fib of the recent move down.

Just a note I made to myself that I thought I would share.

Every significant reversal today was off a 4hr level except 2 and they were a daily and a weekly level. It has been a long time since I have seen this.

I am one of the biggest fans of the 1hour TF due to it's global versatility but despite the variances in timezones that affect 4hr and daily closes, it always worth trying to see your 1hr levels in higher TFs to give them more validity.

Just to be clear 1 hour is still my core TF but I pay a great deal of attention to the levels that appear in my 1hr from a higher TF.

There's no need to expand on this really.

The key message is this: -

1hr is the universal timeframe but levels from higher timeframes will almost always carry more significance.

My charts are updated in order from the highest TF to the lowest i.e. weekly-daily-4hour-1hour. Then I look to see if any of the most interesting 1hour levels can be seen in a higher TF and upgrade them (lines are colour coded and weighted according to TF), in case I missed it on the way down the TFs.

Hi guys

How many pairs do you all watch?

I focus on weekly, daily levels only at the moment (+ fibs) and am watching 38 markets but it seems to generate very few trades for a lot of work.

I am thinking of moving to maybe 5-6 major pairs and using 4hr levels in addition to my daily and weekly.

How does this compare with the number of pairs you guys are watching?

Thanks

But some of those are 'barometer pairs', I use them to monitor the conditions in others.

Phew, finally started holding myself in trade with real money.
3 trades today. 1 overnight from limit order 2 manual. all wins. 25 pips taken.
Now looking for 10-12 pips per trade. will gradually increase it to 15-20 pips. It is hard to force myself to stay. I keep repeating Mantra that closing trade with less than 10 pips is ruining my returns.
BRW method is crude , simple and reliable like AK-47. After mastering this method the most important thing left is trader's psychology.
Ok, let's roll!
I see as good opportunities to short Eur/Jpy at around 1.3435. 1.3455 it is few pips and bigger one is 1.3480-1.3486

what others opinion?

Here's a perfect setup for a live trade on the 15 min $/JPY.

Bottom of the bucket right around 95. In at 95 max drawdown 5 pips. I set my TP on this to just +15 and a tight stop at -10 as I was catchin up on some sleep but +40 was possible.

Thanks once again Billy Ray. These patterns do happen all the time and become very easy to spot with very little screen time.
