GC 4hr pin still not broken...... i'm monitoring the lil flag patter.
Hey Dan. My IBFX feed shows a break to the downside now. That pin's low was 1.6567. Looks like we are in business. Now for the record, that is a stubby little creature. I took the trade because of many factors that I listed a few posts ago.

K.I.S.S.

no that trendline proved to be legit a 2nd time, immediately after my stop was hit, by roughly 3 pips. so I got stopped out by 3 pips and the price took off again. oh well. I already see a good opportunity to re-enter the pair , and am very happy the first trade I made, made 50% of it's targets, with no losses. My demo trade off that line is still live though, the sell limit was just 4 pips higher on the demo account, made all the difference....

Nice entry... the 50% fib retracement of the 4 hour bar.
I waited until she broke before I entered... I didn't like the flag pattern.

I'm just wondering if someone could please have a lot at the image below and try to see how to handle this conflict of signals and how the James16 method would deal with it.

I can live with that.

Did you moved your stop along with the highest trendline or do you leave it at this point a little above your entry?

Hey Al

Careful here, on that second bar. For it to be a DBLHC the close must be HIGHER then the previous bars high. As for conflicting signals, it really depends on the type of trade. For me if I believe strongly enough I will probably not let it discourage but I may move my stop down and reduce my risk on the trade.

Best
Mike

I know this isn't the best set up in terms of placement, but it does fit the criteria of a 2 day pin bar bouncing off the 365 MA and is supported by a very big BUOB on the 4H, so I'm wondering if this could be used to indicate a break out through the daily downward trendline after a small retracement to the first blue zone on the 4H? (fib confluence).
Trying my first live trades with J16 (just risking 0.2% at the moment), and happy to say all is good. Been very quiet on this forum so far as most of my questions have been answered at some point anyway, but just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the help and the amazing forum you guys have put together.

Also wondering if we can use pin bars as continuation signals as in this example to break through the downward TL. I haven't really looked at IPB's at all, but I guess that's the other scenario I can think of.

Thanks
