I was thinking that, as price has already tested the 50 fibo and been rejected, this may be a trend continuation all the way to the 23.6

Just understand that the location of the BEOB is not the ideal. They can be risky as a continuation play.

Don't get me wrong.

I speak in terms of position sizing and giving a bit of room for the trade do develop (again, we are talking generally and not this specific CHFJPY trade).
This doesn't mean taking a full bar loss if the trade goes against you.

I see Nos. I agree.

don't know I am doing anything wrong here, but, looks like good location and space, with trend, 50 fib and BRN 86.

I think it is possibly in the groove.
That said, I also agree that it is not one of those high probability trades, and that is what we are supposed to be learning.

I shall make this another thing to check on my checklist and try to take BU PA at swing highs and BE PA at swing lows.

Thanks for the gentle prod Jarroo.

Its all about being picky Pb. A+ trades are the way to go. If they are not the ideal . . tight management required. This is just the way I do things. You may find a different style.

I guess you should have left some on the table on the Gbp/Jpy from yesterday. (just kidding).

This can be a great trade on the CADJPY, I just need that bar to close below that range (that low bar in the Blue area).

May be a BEOB engulfing 2 prior bars + PPZ + BRN.

A few charts I'm watching prior to daily close 5 pm ET

Don't pay attention to PPZs or Fibs on my charts>>>>did not have a chance to correct them.

Just looking for thoughts...still learning

Thanks---if you want to comment
How did they work out Atc?

looks good and i would like it also if the gb decides to pull back today..?? it jus doesnt seem to want to. be carefull of being brought into the trade by a few pips here just to see it go the other way... maybe a trade from the retest(if it happens might be a safer trade in this situation..??
jus my thoughts, i hope it helps

EDIT: although that 145.00 is a strong level...???

a 1h pin on gold looks pretty good,a nice retest of the last highs, 50 ema,its is also on the 23%fib if that takes your fancy??
i like the 4h bar which could have cleaned up the order flow a little and may let price reach the 1243.00 area wjthout too much influence from the bar highs previous to it??
will take it on my demo (if it breaks??)and see what happens.

i can post charts but my laptop wont save them even though it says it has!!!???

thibgs are looking good for this trade right now...??? closed 2/3rds and got a runner for free.......if it runs lol

Yes, but i want it to engulf 2 bars, not just 1. So in this case i will need it to close not just below 90.0 but a little lower (below 89.75 which is 11/05 daily low).

But that's just me being picky

Yeah....Lol

I did but my TS got hit and I don't like re entering trades.

Still, I traded a full lot and after scaling out, I came out of it with a 7% increase in my account in that one trade alone.
Maybe a full lot is what made me trail it too tight.

This USD/CAD is now at the Weekly M2 Pivot Point which in Confluent with the Daily R2 Pivot Point. Lock your profits. I'd expect new buyers to come in around the Daily M4 at 1.0250 but you can't deny hitting R2 on Friday.

Phew! 7% in one trade? That is like 7 wks of gain for myself (and perhaps Dan too) conservatively speaking.

Good on ya!

How did they work out Atc?
As you probably saw...these were not A+ trades...however my experience has taught me that I need to let the trade breath, with that said my stop loss on the CHF/JPY was higher than most in addition to needed get some sleep.

Also, it appeared to me that the CAD/JPY PB had that "cherry picker" look to it so was rated higher probably IMO...so lot size was larger.

I am truly indebted to you-Jarroo, the seniors(to many to mention) and all of you here for improving my trading...my trading has become more fun...able to trust what I see...sleep well...more mechancial...stress free.
