She has nicely!

I've taken a small long at 131.56. Sorry the servers were busy and wouldn't let me post. WHy did I take it? H1 closed flat, m15 closed flat. Waited a minute and jumped in with a tight SL.
Nice to see you here EO, hope you had a great Christmas and New Year

Of course you are, I thought that was a given You'll be pleased to know your student is getting her mojo back. Took the long EJ 132.63 with spread so not too far behind you. Same reason, flat bottoms

For those of you who don't know, but Stew has been up to his normal shit again. Go figure! I would think if he's been trading for 5yrs, he wouldn't need someone to make trade calls for him. I guess he's still on demo and in diapers. Anyways, for those who remember when I went short at 7022 and Stew posted that I was a dumb ass for taking such a position, you will all be glad to know, that position is still open and of course, nice and green.

I don't make trade calls, we all know this! I've shown how my method works for me over and over again. I take the same kind of trades day in and day out for reason and purpose. Higher time frame Support/Resistance with PA on our lower time frames (m15 for entry). This is not rocket science, don't put too much into this game, just trade the movements and always look at where price has been and where it is going.

BTW, I made the trade call in real time for 7022 in the cable thread at the time.

I thought it might be him that Ken was talking about. We know you don't make trade calls (but you do sometimes and they work ) but I for one and I know many others, appreciate when you're here and can guide while we're learning. That takes a special kind of person when you're already very busy with other business to take care of, to get this kind of guidance FOR FREE is really unheard of anywhere else and thats why my signature says what it does.

Thank you for your kind words! It's very frustrating to me when someone attacks me for my trading style. It's ok to disagree with my style. As I've said in the past, trading has to compliment one's personality. I personally like being in the market and active about it. Others like to set the trade and walk away. No method is better than another, it's how it fits the person trading that matters.

I've never and never will tried to sell anything. It's not my game. I've only tried to help others and I know of many that I have helped. Unfortunatley, not everyone can get this method and that's fine.

Agree with luckylady 110%, this thread and method is having such a positive impact on my trading. I cant really put my finger on exactly why. Its helped me tie all the tf's together and see what price is doing. I like its simplicity and like you say it isnt rocket science, its given me the mindset and confidence to make pips without having to think too much that's probably the key right there. Thanks!! running late have a great day everyone.

I was not around when this happened but it sounds to me like he is just a disgruntled trader who hasn't "got it" yet. No need to defend yourself to us EO. We know your method works and is one of the best. Thanks for everything you do.. Don't let him bother you, and you know you have a whole thread that stands behind you!

Peace!
