Craig Harris Stochastics Method

Hey VM,

Welcome to the thread. I was thinking of giving the compassfx live room a try how do you like it and how long have you been in the room?

Hi and welcome to the group,

Asian session sunday night is hit and miss, last week it was great, many pairs moved, some moved huge, tonight its a yawner, I have a usdjpy short that is down a bit at the moment, but thats life. Asian session during the week lately has been pretty damn good at least 2 times a week, it is really what you are looking for as if someone is looking for 20pips, it is attainable during the asian session, if one is looking for 50, well maybe that trader can make half during asian and then 1 quick trade in new york session, again its all in what the individual trader wants and how much he/she is willing to sit in front of the computer.

I am at +25 on my GU long set up...got out at +34 only had one lot going or else i would let one roll...

Well done, all of you making pips during Asian session. I have in the past sat in front of my computer, taking trades during this time and sometimes they work sometimes they don't. Often you sit and stare and wait for a signal, often you sit and stare even after a signal. So after hearing all the experts voice their opinions, I have had to agree and now I don't even bother firing up my computer until at least 2 hours before London open. What I hate is to take a signal and then sit there and stare for an hour whilst nothing happens, and then I find I have wasted a whole lot of time.

As to the active trade room, I have only been there for a week and I will at least catch a few more sessions before I comment beyond what I am about to. So far, I am just trying to digest the trading styles of Blaine (who does the Pre London to London open 12-4am EST therabouts) and Dean (runs 7-11+am EST). If anything, it is at the minimum helpful for those who want to see how a pro-trader thinks, as each session they start by going through each pair and stating what they are looking out for. Then they comment as the pairs move, and they do respond to questions so it is great if you think you see a setup, and get immediate feedback from them as to what they think.

Good luck out there.

Welcome V M!,,,,,London is definately the best PA trading session,,,But we are usually asleep.....So we take pips during the NY and Asian when possible,,,,

Bpips nice trading!!,Decent PA and waves!!,,I got caught up in dinner and family time,,,,So i missed out on the upswing,,,

Anyways,,, heres a chart with trendline filters,,,,i wouldnt take the short until it breaks the line,,,needs to close below the trendline,,,Then look for a pullback to enter,,,,

Hlass,,,Hope the usd/jpy works out!!,,,Thanks for posting your trade!!

Bank holiday tomarrow!!

If it breaks above consolidation could continue for awhile,,,,,,,,,,,

Im looking for a test of the break out area 6292 or at least the 00 then up again...

Bpips,,,,,,,,,,Makes sense!

Nice break from the trendlines +20 pips,,,,,Now you can play the fibs....

Hi Piptalk
Got on it too. 10p. Im still confused on the entry. Where did u enter and why?

Hi Jazzman....Short @ 6297.....broke the trendline,,,,After consolidation,,,,,

If your feeling a little daring,,go short now,,,or wait for the reverse candle,,,on the fib retracement....Ret not looking real promising though

Hi PipTalk. Mm.. Thats oh so obvious. Im lame. That is a fairly simple setup and I got +10p on it. (My TP - Bad old habit of mine).

Hi all,

Piptalk, great setups with use of trendlines and fibs and all, I love this stuff, and as I have written so many times, works so well with confirmation from stochs and tdi, awesome stuff.

Jazzman, only 10 pips, but still a win and positive pips, better than a loss, keep your spirits up, and just keep studying and you will get more pips, just stick with all of us here and get better and better.

My results from last night, well I ended up taking three trades 2 on usdjpy and one on eurjpy all shorts and all wins, but it was slow going and it was getting late, took 10 on a sell of usdjpy and 23 on eurjpy sell and my first original trade of usdjpy from 90.76 went about 28 against me which sucked and way further than any drawdown I ever get, but the mkt was slow going into bank holiday and MLK JR. day, the first usdjpy trade short looked awesome on the 30 and 1hr charts with resistance clearly evident with many wicks on preceding candles right before my trade, I was obviously late to the trade and so when price was at 91.05 and not wanting to push up further, I decided to short again down at 90.94, got 10 and eurjpy was heating up and there was a inside bar break and bollinger band rebound and this all occured right at the 50% fibo that I had placed on the day chart, at that same time, usdjpy was dropping and so was the eurusd, so all these reasons plus stochastic and tdi were all set pretty nice, lots of confluence to a nice little trade, as the trade progressed the stochastics and tdi really began to look very nice, was trying for just 15-20, got 23 as it was moving nicely when I was taking profit, the first trade on usdjpy I left it in overnight figuring that nothing much was going to happen due to holidays, I got up in the morning and took a big 5 pips out of the original trade, so big total of 38, not much for me, but its positive and in this game this is all that counts, I havent traded usdjpy much in my trading career as I just dont like it much, but I can read it very well to use on slingshot trades on eurjpy and gbpjpy, so go figure lol, any questions, just ask. Might be a few hours before I answer as I am taking the family to volunteer at their school function for the holiday. It is always nice to volunteer, since as a trader, I do have more free time than when I used to go to my 9-5 job, so the wife and I teach the good values of helping others while they are young, always a great thing, let me get off my soapbox-lol speak soon.

Hey everybody,,,Thanks for posting charts and results,,,,Great contributions!! ,,Quiet day today ...C ya later

Hi Guys,just been watching CH vids again,can someone clarify something for me.On entry as long as we have stocastic agreement do we take the break of the previous candles high/low and not put order in for big number.I suppose what I'm trying to say is do we only use BN for targets
