wisdom speaks
totally agree with your view
...don't forget, USD/CHF like the siamese twin of EUR/USD. If you look at E/U 4H, it is a mess at the moment - this is because the markets do not know which way to turn regarding the whole Greek bailout situation. Hedge funds are banking up shorts, sovereigns are fighting back (even talking up extra regulations) so we have a deadlock situation over the last 5 - 8 trading days. Remember, at this stage there's a lot of hot air about the rescue package, but no one has put up a single cent.

Unless we get further clarity from Europe (e.g. Someone actually does something) I think we will contine to see a messy chart for both E/U and U/C. Otherwise I will not be incline to believe any kumo breakout even if it appears to be strong.

Hi weasy

thanx for your risk&money management advice
I'll use it for my demo account first for the next few weeks
if i get a positive result i'll use it for my next real account.
Anytime, i try to help when i can!

And like Vlc said...have a Daily/Weekly MAX loss %...if i have hit my max loss % in the first 2 trading days i step aside for the rest of the week. Instead i go back to demo and trade there until the next week.

I have only traded Ichi on my demo account and wont go live until im getting some consistent gains.

Remember this is a money trading game...without money...your out

Hi

in regard to eurusd i had actually jumped the gun yesterday in what you call aggressive entry but was beat back and cut my loss .

Now it is edging close to the definitive 1.354-1.3545 level and if the 4h candle close below this level , sovereign or no i'm in shorting the pair

Having said that , it is true as what you said noise coming from the news that could warp the trade and PA any way so anyone going in should be ready to cut and go i think .

Idealistically i would hope the system is all we need but having a good dose of fundamentals will be good.

btw between a battle of sovereign and hedge fund i know i will be on the side of hedge fund. cue Soros

Custodial sales seen to a new 1.4885 [CABLE] low, a new six-day worst. Gbp/Usd has already lost half a cent in early Europe, Eur/Gbp has made ground above 0.9100 too, as the Pound is a victim of choice currently. A host of widely identified Gbp/UK economy weights are in play currently and this morning a report from the WSJ that Barclays is on the hunt for a US retail bank is also getting some airplay. Next stops 1.4880, we are told, while the 1.4781 2010 low, recorded Mar 1, is the next major bear target. However, many looking much lower than that too. Recall there was plenty of buying interest yest for 6-mth 1.4400 puts. In latest flows, option name buyers have been noted sub-1.4900 buyers.

Hello Vic

Many thanks for your idea and advice

I take it that you mean using kumo SS A or kijun as SL in the lower timeframe ie 1H ?

I actually put in a kijun SL under the 4H TF and man , was it close at one point. i had observed beforehand retracement could hit past KS and yet continue uptrend

Now it is quite in the clear . Hope you have enter the position too and good luck


Quoting vic_elc
well i use the 1hr and 4hrs for entries and i pref to be going in the same direction of the daily cloud, i keep moving my SL below the current value of the kumo , u can do the same u can move ur SL with spanA or even with Ks
abut AUD USD i think it is ready now to test this year's high area this will be TP1 and for the rest i'll let the Kumo decide when i am out
hope things are easy and clear now
good luck

Good advice .

At this point i would like to , in line with risk management , ask about adding in lots .

Is there any generic rule that you follow for adding in lots on a trending trade?

Any one else feel free to share your thoughts too

I recall Egywarrior mention once to add in lot when the TS KS cuts again in the same trend as the LT trend. Something like this would help the users on board.

now days i trade the kumo breakouts , so when i think of adding positions i'll be looking for entries from lower TFs
as an example lets say we are long A/X from 4hrs or even 1hr chart . while our position is running we will switch to the 15 mins chart every day and start adding positions with any break in the same direction.
hope this helps , if not let me know and i can explain more
cheers
