Nice chart Adi.
But that kind of chart really makes me feel "should I or should I not".
That is a small pin regarding size. But location is good and should be on fib level as well. Round number 10 is there as well.

Are you comfortable with pin size?

Hello Lord, thanks for your post! Yes my thought process was almost identical, I dont like the size that much but everything else seems ok. Also it is run into 50/150 ma's zone.

Also, you know I noticed that on the Stockcharts.com the charts sometimes looks a little different. Yes all the prices align but the scale is different. Take a look at this finviz chart, it is now doesn't look THAT small

So I was thinking over this chart a lot. I believe it is still the best setup for this week within SP500, but yes I could have just skipped it - thinking over I thought I will try...

You are right. There are too many confluences to support the trade.
Just a question, are you taking full bar SL (not just this trade, overall trades)? Or you are just using the EYES for stops? Just curious..

Thinking a lot about the same question and monitoring lots of charts I decided to ALWAYS leave my initial SL behind Nose (full bar stop) and sometimes I will move my SL behind next bar (the trigger bar) if it strongly closes in my favor (showing some profit) but before FTA or my target (this part is subjective, I might move stop might not, I moved just once so far I think).

Hi

i would wait for close over $14

pinbar creatating support at the $12

bullish outside bar,green bar more volume than red,saying has momentium

pushed through restistance around $13.70

first resistance level around $14,2nd level at $16

does that concur with your thoughts 07

Hello Desperate, yes I like your logic on this one. But I try to simplify things, so for now I just enter above signal bar when I see it, my buffer is 10c.

October 11, 2010 - BOT: +50 APR 14/15 BULL CALL SPREAD @ 0.50
Haha!! Well. What a shame...I have miscalculated whole position. So now for every dollar I make on a long call I lose the same amount on short call and unless I hold everything until expiry (185 days) I will not make any money...
wahaha, sorry for this

I guess I need to stay with just outright long call and long put until I will gain some better knowledge about option strategies, before that I will not make fun of myself and worse than that risk my demo money, lol...

Here is the chart, if I only entered with regular call with the same number of calls (50) I would have made about $600 profit already!!!
And now I exited with zero profit/loss but my commissions were $295.

Anyway good lesson learned here... I still like the setup though

All depends on a trader, if I learn to use this info right I will succeed!!!

hi 07

looked like a good setup
Well this chart really disapointed me... complete failure!
Hmm, so was it because the setup was against the main trend? But the size is ok and there was a clear divergence too...

So the question, should I maybe comepletly ignore those setups that occur against strong trend (so I trade with trend and range bound only)? Or should I not pay attention to just one failed setup and keep my system as it is...

Thanks John for your support! You too have a great weekend!
This weekend I'm going to search for another candidate.
So, hope to see you then to discuss it!
Ok. Well this weekend I had some very deep thinking about these two, just couldn't decide which to choose, lol.. and the winner to be shorted was BOKF!!!
