I trade naked off horizontal SR lines and have been trying to add TLs but everytime i see one of TLC's charts there are TLs that I have completely missed.

TLC - it is probably all intuition for you but do you follow a methodology for doing your charts?

cheers

Agree with this one. I drew my fib from 9404 though, so my 78.6 spot lies around 9115.

Welcome back, seems you have been busy for a while.

Hi TLC
Help
Sorry to be a pain, but I opened 2 long positions at 1.62855 & 1.62843
and hedged 1 position short at 1.62417, My first trade achieved tp 1 at
1.64355 tp 2 is longer term 1.68680 so I then opened short at 1.64346, now I am completely stuffed up, I would appreciate you thoughts on what I should do.
It is my first hedge, I need to go back to baby pips, it sure seemed simple there.
Sorry my charts starting to look a real mess

Looks like a clean UTL break. You are still UP. I will cut the short and let the other one run.(You can wait for the next h1 candle to close)

Hello TLC and all,

I appreciate what you are doing. I am really learning a lot from you.
Some others are great contributors as well.

I have a small question. It might be silly, but for me its the most difficult.
When price approaches a trend line, how do you decide whether you will get in at the touch and benefit from a reversal or get in at the break and hope for it to keep going.

An example is the USDCAD chart that TLC posted. Price came close to the TL, I bought at 1.0266, it broke the TL and went down, when it came back up, I thought this is the test before it continues to go down. I closed the deal at BE just to watch the price go the 1.0290.

So how to decide?

Look at this chart. It is a 4H chart and it passed the LTL by 6 pips. Form my point of view it was a perfect bounce. #2153. Every case is different but I assume it will bounce because TL's are there for that reason. I take a very small risk at bounces and if it breaks I took the loss and wait for the restest to join.
