NM,

Is there a price pullback toward the upward trendline that is not visible or is the pullback to that line not required. If it is not required, where do you pull your SL value?


Thanks
BR

Wow I was on the wrong the TF and missed my entry, but I got in and closed half the position out at 58 pips,SL is now at BE and I will let the second half run for the ADR,. I saw an inverted HnS but it fell apart I was actually setting up on the 30 min TF and for some reason was trying to see the setup on the 15 min TF not good....On the 5 min trigger chart there was clearly a H n S that did hold but it was not inverted...

anyway looking for setup in 30m. isnt it very risky. such a small TF. might get false breakout.

On the 5 min trigger that H n S is what I used for my entry signal, I wanted to get in as soon as it crossed it and broke the the 143.00 But I was on the wrong TF and did not see HnS soon enough for that but after it went below the 143.00 I figured it was going down further, had the H n S not been there I probably would have waited for another signal after it crossed the 143.00

30 mn TF is as small a TF that I will trade nothing smaller than that

I got into the nzd/jpy. I guess that one is kind of a risky trade, since both currencies are mostly traded in the asian session, but the setup was there, so I put on a small lotsize.
Custos,
How is your trade going?

Hi NM,

I am wondering about what size your trailing stop used to be. I am currently testing out different ATRs. I think a trailing stop of the ATR 150 period on the setup chart should be okay for trailing stops.

What do you think?
Custos,

My traling stops would be anywhere from 20 to around 30 pips or so sometime a ltttle bigger or smaller....

Custos,
How is your trade going?
I closed that one out, since there was no momentum behind that trade. I hope I am luckier next time.

best regards

Looks like a valid setup, that pair still has about 50 pips or so left on the ADR so there is some room...I think the 147.00 is going to be the key in that one...

Hey Nm,

I got a strategy I want to discuss with you, concerning the LOB. Let's say we have an up-trend.
Very often I don't have time around the London open, so I figured, I just mark the tokyo range and put the entry order 10 pips above the range, and my stop in the middle of the range. (My thoughts here are, if it's a valid LOB, price will not return below the middle of the range).

First Target: next round number
Second Target: 80% of ADR.

What do you think?
But this strategy I would employ only if I don't have time to watch the London Open.

Best Regards

That is really up to the individual trading, I know ppl that stradle the news too, but what I would do is try it on a demo account and see if you can consistantly make profits from it.
