You might be surprised.

I have watched several of your posts, a lot include your plays, the bulk asking for what to do.

My friend...you are setting yourself up for fail.

In all honesty, I hope you are trading a demo account, but really don't think this is the case. I do believe that you should take some time, do some reading and start analyzing the charts. This will be your only market stability and will be the only thing that can offer you any longevity.

Price action seems to elude you, feel no shame, most of us started the same place, but your continued posts asking...
Good advise. learn your charts first get a feel for what YOU are doing. Although it can be very helpful to listen to other perspectives and rational taking other peoples calls leaves no room for your improvement and if you wanna last its a journey of lessons making other peoples mistakes means you dont learn what you can or cant do.

lion i had 2 positions short both from yesterdays highs at around 980 they were both green but i have just closed 1 on the fall back to 950. moved sl to break even on the second and looking for the fall back dwn to 900-880 region. the last few days have seen me loose more than 4, 60 pip trades as my s/l was triggered for a profit of 10 pips (better than nothing hay) those were all on long moves awaiting that strong rebound that began to take off but didnt take flight. although im short i am looking for longs to get in. gbp seems to be firming up and after the weekly pin and daily hammers i think a bounce is on its way.

Hi Magix, can you please tell me the reason why you short now ? I see that on 1H candle not yet crossed MA24 from above to bottom ? are you short because of the fibo reach short @ 1.4957 ? I see that OSMA is heading down, but MACD still flat after pointing up. Thanks for reply.

No sir...

Not short here.

Just went long.

What I was saying is that a lot of folk will sell on a dip, but fail to recognize support in doing so.

I have seen a quite a few folk buying long spikes and selling short spikes.

My question was posed as a, Have you...and did you see.

We may go short from here, and if we do, this is the last line of support, so, I will be fair to quick on the trigger, but...

We came up to this line and have failed to close below...seems like a decent risk for me on a long.

Changed wording to avoid confusion.

I offered nothing but advice.

I realize with all the good that the thread can offer there are still the odd that will not take advantage...

For those, I feel sorry.

And I prefer to trade off of charts that give clear direction following
a release off of a tight compression or a collapse off of a bubble.

I can finally say all this banter is confusing me and im getting whipsawed to death.

I was long, it went against me, 28 pips, i saw lions post and i was like maybe its short and the hammer is bullshit!

So i closed that, then opened a short, which now has gone against me, and now the daily hammer may look good!!!

You have to be very disciplined to follow your system when so many other "accredited" traders are going against your "trend" of thought...


Honestly always when i leave this thread, my trading results always go up....
that ever happen to me too..,i'm Long i loss 50 pips, suddenly i go short and guest, i lose 50 pisps too... feels like i'm the most stupid person being tricked by the market...
but that's when i was in Demo...,now in Live.., hemm...never...

if i change long to short so quick that's mean i don't have good plan enough to enter the market. no SL calculation, no target calculation. that's just the same word, no plan. no plan and no plan.
to make sure i didn't do that again, now i don't play "click" order..,i use Limit order for plan A, Stop order for plan B... Delete all order + Shut Down my computer for plan C

hope the best for you there..,have a good plan ( have a good day i mean.. )

We need to play a flash card game here...
I show a compression chart that is about to form
which in my opinion is always accompanied by a
momentum push and then after reviewing your
four MTF charts you draw an arrow... up or down.

Then we can spend our leisure time reading Malcolmb's posts.
