Quick post.
Cable Touch trade
2nd touch of m15 10 EMA.
Took the same and got out at +6. Hopefully you do better than that! I just didn't feel confident seeing as it was the second touch.

Hi Arha,
what was your reason for exit?
the Double top formation on H1 ?

No nothing technical like that. Because it's coming up to market open I wasn't sure that a second touch was going to be strong enough to keep the upwards momentum. Since it was a second touch and outside of main trading hours, I decided just to cash in what I had when price started hesitating.

I'm not really confident enough in my price action to trade second touches yet, I shouldn't have entered actually.

edit: I originally had my target as the previous peak, so about +10 pips.

Confluence: 15 min - 50 ema, 35 sma, 200 ema, Daily Pivot
1 hour - 10 ema, 35 sma
4 hour - 10 ema

Result: + 50 pips.

OK. I missed that. I just couldn't wait. I had captured 21 pips in 2 similar trades and I thought that the third time it was going down.

But the conclusion is that this stuff works.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Good morning.

It feels good to come here to post a trade and see that someone already beat you to it. It makes me proud for you guys. In any case, here is the chart (I got in earlier than I should have, but due to the nice confluence I felt OK leaving a big SL of 23p). I closed 90% of the lot at +34p and left 10% to run to the Daily R1 with RN.

I think you misunderstood me. I didn't catch the 50 pips. Before that massive move I make the same trade twice (long at 1.3318) for the reasons I stated and made 21 pips.

The third time I didn't go long because I didn't want to push my lack. That is where the final +50 pips happened.

Still I am very satisfied with the 21 pips and most importantly with that fact that I am starting to really understand the Choros System.

edit: Another thing I am satisfied. I draw the same trend lines on my 15min chart as Kostas.

Hi Kostas and all.

Have been reviewing a few pairs and how they react while trending strongly (15m charts) and their behavior. I've observed that some pairs tend to touch the 10 ema three times max, before some sort of retracement.

Is this something anyone else has noticed?

You might want to take a look at Elliot Wave Theory. It can get way too complicated, but basically the idea is that a trend consists of five legs: three surges and two retracements. On the surges you are talking about, the retracements would be pullbacks to the 10EMA. Not saying it's necessarily true, just that it's a similar observation.

Could be some connection. On the 10 ema bounces the retrace does not always create a swing point which, I believe is present in most E Wave charts. But what do I know...

Nice observation there. I keep noticing a lot of stuff but didnt post here to make sure i dont confuse anyone. Yes it has to do with wave theory.But i must warn anyone thinking of using it-its too complicated and doesnt work in time frame we are trying to trade. HTF - it works. But one needs much more patient and huge Sl with that. Also, ANY system needs experience. So it wont start working from day one.

Also note that the "first touch" rule comes from here. Subsequent touches become much more riskier.

I have been thinking about lots of things lately and dont know who to bore. So here it is if you have nothing better to do before europe open.

Trend is the KEY to any trading. Know it and you will make money. Go against it and you will be skinned. With trend every indicator will work. Against it, nothing stands a chance.

It's not really difficult- I make it complicated myself. See how beautifully every bearish engulfing is working today in GBP. See how that evening star in EUR was begging to sell ( i got +10 from that one). The trick is to take every bearish sign here and ignore every bullish formation.

Earlier i had trouble defining the trend. Now dance tells me when to sell when to buy. I think next stage is to work on phychology and become as desciplined and level headed as Kostas. Trading in the zone was included with original manual with some purpose!

agreed on all that survivor, i've been reading the PDF for trading in the zone and am in the process of being a consistent trader, not only profitable trades but even if i had a losing trade but sticking by the rules i will be happy cos i understand we cannot win all the 10 out of 10 trades and need to let our edge and probabilities work out through the market's perception

Hi All

BTW this is my first post in any Forex form.
I've been reading this thread for last two weeks and demo trading GU using Dance Strategy. I've read the original dance manual couple of times. I have had mixed success so far with my trades.

Wondering if any one can help me understand touch-trades bit better. I'm struggling with the touch-trades on ma's. Quite a few are going against me. How do you guys filter high-probability touch-trades?

Thanks in advance
