Thank you guys, but Never mind. Didn't form the PB but the TL break and Divergence I thnks it still in place... I'm long since the 1.58900 since the brutal fall it took...
You know, "boiling the frog"....
Will see how it goes....
Regards...!
Well... it made me sweat, but it's paying off...

5X5 routines go back a long way (Reg Park was a big proponent as well, Arnolds early mentor), it will always produce good results and strength gains....
Over the years I have found martial arts, such as thaiboxing or kickboxing to be a great way to stay in shape. It's one of few ways to get strength, agility and aerobic exercise all in one. Supplement with some running and two visits to the gym every week and you're all set.

I went from 137 pounds at 5' 11" (I know, scary when windy....) and after about three years topped out at about 220 (no super supplements) with about 9-10% bodyfat.

I still work out to maintain, but due to all of lifes demands I hover around 200-205 now vs my peak (oh, bodyfat is a bit higher but not bad). I am 38 now as well.

Another great example on how traders are really buff... one exception is habeeb, a few months back I remember reading somewhere that he is huge, but maybe that's changing now, I'm not sure, haven't been on the PF for awhile now.

Oh and I remember Jim has a dog too, we are so much alike one way or another... now if I could just profit consistently like he does...

It was a really nice PB on my fxpro feed. but it missed my weekly PPZ by a few, so I didn't pay attention, I guess I should be working on my PPZ feel again.

Although I'm not a very big fan of trendlines, that's some pretty heavy divergence though, and I think I like divergence, I'll keep an eye on them next time, thanks for the inspiration investor7

OFF TOPIC: DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE EXPECTING ANYTHING TRADING-RELATED

***It's a holiday, I hope the traders in here accept the current off topic discussion, if not, PM me, I can always delete my post.***

Lol this is weird... everyone in here is the same. My buddy is obsessed with 5x5. I personally change my rep/set scheme every week because I get bored and I feel like I know what I need to do more than someone else knows what's good for me (not a big fan of "programs").


Today I did 7x7 FULL SQUATS (below parallel). last week I did the same set/rep scheme with deadlifts. It's exhausting cardio-wise.


1,000 lb big 3 total by February is the goal (squat: 315x1, deadlift: 460x1, bench 225x1 is my goal).


I have also gone from 6'1", 137 lbs, to currently almost 6'2", 215 lbs. It's amazing to see how out-of-shape my graduating class has become in just a few short years. Leave em in the dust .
Many choose unhappiness over uncertainty.

You have me beat on deads......Deadlift 405, squat 345 (full), bench 235. My bench has always been horrible compared to others and other lifts. I hear what you say about canned programs, but I can't argue with the results. Plus, you go in different cycles based on how you recover individually.

Like you said off topic, but hey it is new years eve (almost) and probably not a great time to trade anyway.

I'm not a master, but here's my thought anyway: with the current thin liquidity, I would'nt consider any 4H setups as A+.

why not concentrate on the liquid/more liquid pairs?
or do u have a fetish for exotics?

Gives you more options I guess .... I'm just at the beginning stage so haven't got the eye for all the intricacies .... Just scanning for A+ set ups.
Also Dailies and Weeklies give you few opportunities

And yes, I do like my exotics

Hey Investor

Few notes here. The biggest one for me is that it is jan 29, tomm is the last trading day of the year before the new year holiday. This means so many normal participants are no where to be found. Thus lower liquidity and thus more erratic price movements. IMO trading around this time is more near flipping a coin. Next remember we MUST wait for the bar to close before it is a pin. This could slowly trickle down and then you will be in a bar before the pin is even formed. Don't fear missing a move, I promise there will be enough good ones not to have to worry. As for the bar itself, for me it is nothing much to get excited for. We recently had a very strong move down, a brief stall and now this would be a very small pin in heavy traffic. If this had a much much longer nose protruding below that previous low we might have something. Now will this potentially work? Well the first trouble area is around 1.4377 since price is in traffic, so we might get tehre, or higher. The key though is this worth really risking our 1,2,3% on at this time of the year. You could get a few different answers from people, but mine would be stay aside and wait for the clearer signals

Have a happy new year

Mike

I'm going out on a limb here and agreeing with Mike.

What I don't like about this location is the lack of a clear swing low and traffic hovering above.
