My 5850 short was stopped out for -25 (boo hoo) BUT I still cannot see a reason to long in this down trend....on the sidelines until I see a new break lower

For each of the different resistance ranges, price typically waits until the final seconds of the time frame to make decision.

Make or break times.

I watch them like a hawk.

For these, I also use the MACD and OSMA indicators for support, but typically will exit the play and re-enter when we retrace and close above or below support on the 1m chart.

The charts are for helping new traders understand why price stalls at certain points on the charts...true support/resistance ranges.

Another thing to keep in mind...NY open...
thank you for explanation.. anyway i went short at the top of the last h candle.. now the new candle is forming and i would be more than happy if it would go down.. depends on chicago index.. sl in place

Seeing what happens at hourly resistance on a long term bear with bull plays...

Pattern recognition.

This isn't to say go short now...more to say, if you are long, make sure you have your profits guarded.

To all experience traders: do you care about when price opens higher/lower (even 0.1 pip)?

I see sometimes good patterns, but then see price opening higher (lower) in contradiction to my intention and makes me not trading.

Thank you for telling your experience.

1.5875 is just above the 200EMA <-(scalpers bounce line) on the 1m chart.

Triggering out here, could get you buying back above the same price.

I would go to support on the 5 and 15m charts and trigger manually, but we all have our trade rules.

Not trying to show you what to do Gep...damn you been round long enough.

These are fer the newbs, like me....help see whats going on and why.

FWIW...even though we are below the 24SMA on the hourly...we have dipped back and crossed above the 24SMA on the 1m chart.

These are what I use as triggers on trend. The immediate trend being long...the overall still being that of the bears.

Taking a trade like this, allows me to enter into a trade on a trend, with the best possible chance of success.

Failure of this line, will still result in watching for lower time frame support, and manual triggers.

Just a little way to bank a few pips, if you get to the game late.

I am not saying buy...I am not even trading...no trades for me until next year, just for the folks learning and watching the movement.

Holding the 24SMA on the 1m chart, allowed a quick play on the spike over hourly resistance...a single tiny play may not make you a living, but do this enough times, it can really add up.

Not disagreeing with the overall...

The point was, and my trading is...

In like a lamb, out like a lion.

Again, if you just got into the game, and seen what I seen, you would play the quick trades and take a few bucks on the short pops.

All resistance lines on the charts have been circled, so, plays from support to resistance...The essence of trading...Is how I play.
