So do you still plot PPZ on your charts or just your 1000/500 pip zone increments?
I don't plot much of anything on my chart just cause I pretty much can see it either way. I know the BRNs are PPZs(zones remember), and once I am in trades i tend to focus in on closer more minor zones, other rd numbers etc. I am aware of other major areas of s/r, things like double tops, breakout formations etc

my bread and butter is definitely the 1hr and 4hr, and I am even more strict on the daily and weeklies. So haven't had many there. I believe 2 daily trades all year so far.

i think i might demo 1 or 2 pairs and see how it goes..do you do anything different off the hourly than you do off the daily..i assume you only take A grade setups..

nope not really to be honest, just by the nature of a daily timeframe less bars then you get on a 4hr and 1hr respectfully

What do you think the average annual income for a first year trader on FF is? Like a thousand bucks, maybe?
Gotta be kidding bro. More like minimum of -$1,000
I've seen MUUUUUUUCCCCCH worse from morons who said, "I will trade my way to my first million in 1 year!"

That said, I also want to say that a good mate of mine just took I think 5k to 70k in the recent 6 or 7 months risking < 2% of his capital each time.
Trades like the pros he does.

so this is how i see the eurusd 1 hour chart from a pivot zone point of view... the one difference i see is that the 50 areas come into play fairly often.. i dont see the point in plotting the minor pivot zone and as Mike says they really come into play in managing a trade... any comments welcome

question for all the old timers....

is there such a thing as a 2 day bullishbearish outside bar?
I can only assume that you take both long and short positions after the bullishbearish signal triggers

my solution to that is.... have her trade a separate account.
let her learn from the ground up too, so it's fair for both parties..
then compare results later on

No problem. I just spent some time at GS on their OTC Derivatives and SP teams. I moved to Swiss OTC Derivatives on GSBZ for a bit too. I also worked on their Products team covering Advisory HF relationships and launches. I was also on their Structured Products team, which gave me a lot of exposure to tilting SPs to different currencies.

I left and started my own Boutique Forex Pool which eventually we turned into a Cap Managment Umbrella and cover a lot more asset classes now.

Right now I manage the company's Asia/Pacific Pool and do oversight for our Europe and Exotics Pool.

I was a GS for a while, few years, and been doing Forex for a few more on top of that.

FF is great. I work crazy hours and there is always someone on here to bounce ideas off of. I am usually on the AUD/USD thread. Twee is also a cool guy too, runs a good site.

I somehow stumbled on this thread, don't remember how now that I think about it. But I might go back and read through this thread in my spare time. Seems like a quality thread. I like S/R, TL and what not and don't use too many indicators. I'm a visual person I like watching PA more than indicator lines.

Hey DD

That bar is not a pinbar. Remember the open and close needs to be within the prior bar. And we want to insure that the nose of the bar is much longer then the body of the bar thus protruding away.

Welcome to the thread
Mike
Thanks Mike
