I got like 30 emails about the usd/jpy of people just killing it on it. Talk about a runner . Good job to those that followed their plans

Hi guys i just spotted this possible Pin on Eur/Gbp

Reason that i like this set up:

1) Pin (not the best one)
2) BRN 85.00
3) Double bottom
4) Divergence on Macd
5) 61% Fibonacci ( a friend of mine )

Of course we have to wait the Daily close time.

What you think??

Compliments or bad words are welcome.....
I am wary of CT trades. Also, why should the euro rise against any currency at the moment?

Great trade, Dan
Good for about 3R.


I was stopped out at BE on NZDJPY and now I'm on the USDJPY.
Due to its location, I might give a bit more room to this one before adjusting my stop.

that wheat trade was perfect. Thanks to ghous for showing how the IPB's do work in the right location. 500 VBRN was a perfect location.

Right after I took full profit, price reversed, further proving the management technique there is spot on

I too was stopped out at B/E on the NZDJPY trade. winner column.

USDJPY missed my T/P by about 5-6 pips or so, my stop is at B/E now and will continue to hold it until the NY market close time when I will close all positions due to tommorow being NFP.

gold i'm holding half position right now. stop at b/e.

26h pin! why not the 4hr buob as above

Just messing with you yaniv my man

Mike
I don't have the power to look at all feeds out there .

I just try to aggregate bars so it will appear as a PB/BEOB/BUOB on higher TF, i know it sounds silly but i'm more relaxed when i see 26H TF and not 4H.

I find it that if you know how to aggregate those bars it can help you to spot the "eye" and things like that.

Any way, it's on demo

you are the best Mike buddy !

Just wondering - was the USD/JPY a good example of a double top off the 95.000 resistance/round number?

thanks

yes, and a 61.8% retracement on the weekly chart, and divergence on that double top in MACD.

I actually had a sell limit placed at 95.00 but that order got missed by 3 pips...

There's some areas on a chart that are just screaming at you sometimes.

nope not on the way down at least LOL my methods flourish best when we swing, unless I catch a breakout play. Just nothing quite lining up for me these last few weeks

Your psychology must be on point if this doesn't bother you in the least lol.

I'm upset that I only caught the trades that I did, and this has been one of my best weeks on record as far as demo+real trading combination goes.

It can be tough watching all the action. I had a real slow last month after a flying start the first 3 months. But that's just how it goes. Your method does what it does. I forgot who said it , but it was something when I am out of the market it's other peoples turn to get theirs

I finally had an order pick up with some slippage though, but maybe its my turn maybe not

Keep at it Dan you are doing great

PS: Again, entry on the break and SL above the bar. I place my trades (still demo) in Oanda.

What a drop

Closed 1/3 ad SL above 92.00 for now.
Honestly, this turned out very different from what I expected and I have to set a new plan for the remaining position.

Yeah I don't think anyone could have expected it to drop that hard.... that is madness. huge bearish bars all over the yen crosses.
