when you enter a trade you wait for a break, pullback and then continuation. For the entry you wait for the swing low of the pullback to be broken "for a short" the number 2 swing to be broken at what point do you say this is a solid continuation? How many pips past that swing do you wait? I know your stop goes above the swing of the pullback "for a short" how far past the swing?
I try to get in as soon as the continuation goes passed the wick if there is one, other wise I go in as soon as it clears the base of the candle if I can get in that quick...every pip counts you know...

When I am at the office I use my cell phone as a modem and access that way on my Laptop. Seems to work pretty good, for the most part I am at my home office more than the office but when I have to be there then thats how I do it.

Ok ...I tried using a VPS but at my office there is a corporate firewall which blocks all the outgoing remote connection ports ...so i cancelled the VPS service and now going with TabletPC 8.9'' screen (cant have a full size laptop next to myself without getting quizzed) ...i would have to get used to working on a smaller screen size though

I know what you mean. Most of the engineers I work with trade the stock market and they are always watching it....Like all day....So I figured I can trade FOREX at the same time and they seem to be ok with it. So I keep doing it...

I see a lot of reversal patterns developing these yen crosses, could be heading back up very soon...

NM,

This thread is really taking off isn't it!?

Wonder if you could help me figure this one out please?

I've noticed that many retracements happen in two stages - an initial shallower move followed by a final steeper move. This results in 2 retracement trendlines and I'm getting confused as to which break I should be considering before my bpc setup.

I'm talking about the retracement lines drawn on the higher tf setup charts here.

I guess the less steep trendline is the more reliable one?

Can you offer any advice in this area please?

Thanks!

NM,

I have tried a couple of the crosses and do not find a TF that has a 30,50 and 100 MA that fits the rules for a buy. It doesn't feel like it would be possible to develop in an hour or two. Are you using some other guide to getting in before the MA's turn?

Thanks
BR

Sometimes that is very difficult that is one of the reasons you gave to adjust the trendlines from time to time. And some times you have 2 trendlines an inner and outer.

Yes the thread seems to getting bigger and bigger as long as everyone is making money that is good!!!!!

We are still in sell mode right now, so far the reversal patterns have not held up so we are still in sell mode.

The G/Y is tempting but that 1 bar pullback still does not have me convinced yet...I need more evidence..

Hi Chris,

I dunno. I see something like NU shooting up and my brain kicks in and says spike with consolidation or a complete retrace. To me, NU does not have the clean MA pattern that would be considered ideal.

I think we are trying to find a TF and a pair that has high and low swings that the 30 and once in awhile the 50 MA's interact with. As it is said "Harmonic Swings". Then create and trade through more than setup over time.

I am struggling because... For me, watching the video is a no brainier it shows this works. My issue at the moment is living through a trade and or seeing a long term trend begin early as opposed to seeing it in a video after-the-fact.

I know it can be done, NM is doing it and trying to help others including myself to "get it".

Now the wrong answer might cause me to hurt myself You see a NU developing into a trade-able trend?

Thanks!

I am almost thinking the reversal pattern is about to be confirmed now and looking for short poisitions is on hold and may be looking for longs again....
