first TP hit with 56 pips, was going to move up the SL and let it run. but my working hour doesn't allow me to get that on time. Thanks lawgirl for the thread.

I see a weekly three tap, is it valid? then I went down to daily and saw a outside bar, confirming it is still going down.

I know three tap supposed to be entered immediately on the third tab?

what do you think?

I'm still waiting to enter on this pair. I'm not liking the M15 chart yet.
Hi LG, been watching this one too - it's right near support 1.3730x of 15/11/10 (on 1HR) and not breaching. Just an FYI

Hi all, I saw you guys posted lots of the similar charts with BO trades.

What are the rules, what are the theory? How do I learn how you draw those BO lines? Any materials/threads to read?

Thanks a lot in advanced.

Look for 4+ candle consolidation on H1 and above - watch the breakout on lower TF enter when PA puts probabilities your way.

Hi LG, just to understand. Why were you still looking for bo here (post #5341)? Counting backward, I thought candle #5 made a bo downward & closed outside of the band, though the next candle took price back into the band?

Lawgirl, I have been practicing your method the last month with generally good results. I am not used to trading the longer timeframe, however, and am struggling with setting a proper SL to start and then how much to move it up as the trade hits profit.

For now I initially set a 200 pip SL; once the trade hits 100 pips profit I move to a 50 pip trailing stop. Does that make sense to you? Do you have any guidance to offer in this area?

Thanks!

Expecting 100 pips per trade is pretty ambitious, but if you choose your trades carefully, it certainly can be done.

Practice finding support/resistence areas and marking them. FF is full of threads that can help you with that if you need it. A 200 pip SL is pretty much like not having one at all..I like your guts!

I came back to my office with a 150 pip short trade on my office account. Nice surprise because I had forgotten about it.
