I experienced that when I went for 3 weeks to UK. We were attacked with domestic guys, as they hated foreigners. I go on 20th february to cambridge, but I read yesterday there is high awearness of terrorism, so I hope everything is gonna be fine. I go to cambrdige to atend some lectures with my friend, I wanna see hows life there =D Otherwise I love my life in slovenia, also my origins are from bosnia, I spend lots of time there. For me as a slovene citizen everythin is cheap and funny.=D Ahmab where r u from, my friend lives at south beach, MI and he said its so good and likes it a lot =D all the best

OK guys as far as I remember from taekwondo and also on my trading experiences, its much more difficult to attack than to defend. I dont know maybe because of my personality. Usually at my sport when u attack u r taking risks, as u cent get hurt by defensive strikes. Can u please post me mamod what if u like start attacking, when u r positive but u just took some hype wave, and u start loosing money. Like I dnt know. scout 1 lot, after 10pips+ u add another one, than after 8 pips another, one than after 15pips, another 1 its sum of 4. Than price...
Hi Mijamoto,

I have no idea, what you are asking for.
Could you please try to explain it in other words?

Sorry!

Hi again Mijamoto!

Aaah ok - now I got it.
Basically I only deploy my attack troops, when there is good momentum respectively I'm inside an impulsive move. When momentum is fading, I usually take out my last deployed level. When I feel/see that there will be a reversal (that might go back further than the new last entry point), I take out that level too. When momentum is increasing against me, I take out all affected attack levels, except scout.

But it depends on the way PA is playing out.

I have written something about an easy training approach at 28th of october this year. Maybe it is of some help for you. Here it is again:

After almost one year of practice I still have not learnt attack which is central to fti teaching http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/smilies/yim/sad.gif Am training with the mantra "Buy Low Sell High" in the direction of bias (short chart M5 M15 trend). I believe playing both sides make it hard to take advantage of position sizing and therefore the MO requires very good timing. Personally I do not believe in market timing independent of position sizing.

Hi Baifu,

what's about a simple idea to train you attack skills.

Assuming you are trading the M5 chart and uing M1 for timing, M15 and H1 for trend. Attached is an M5 chart of cable from todays London morning session.

The idea: Add one level of troops every new M5 bar, when the one before was a "strong bar".

What is a "strong bar"?

- you have seen good/increasing momentum(speed of growth)
- it is longer than the average bars before
- It has no or a very small top wick only.
- it was not diving to deep (<40%) into the price range of the bar before.
- PA is not approaching a resistance or support area

When the first NON-Strong-Bar appears, reduce exposure or square out.

That idea is something like training wheels for you bike.
You have to go beyond such an approach with your evovling experience, because it is very rigid.
But it will give you the feeling for attacking the market and will take the fear of being wrong ...

  • Jan 8, 2011 9:28pm Jan 8, 2011 9:28pm
Thanks Mamood. I have a better idea of what fti's "advice" is. The skew is an example illustrating the movement from junior-senior-chief book size, as well as the use of a geometric skew (as a result of the WW table). More importantly is idea of the use of the skew to increase the average position ("basis") to an acceptable level which I feel appropriate,(dependent on many many things).

I tend to be extremely nimble/aggressive in rescues as well (but my training wheels at 1,1,2 are preventing me from choosing a skew that's more appropriate for me).

I can't tell you how valuable your comment was in my mindset development.

Quoting MaMood
Very true!!!

Hmmh - not sure how I can say it most clearly:

FTI teachings are not a system.
It is just advices to trade the flow.
And he gave us very deep insights in market structure and Risk and money management as well.

So if we have gone through his teachings and have them almost grasped, we should know the market well and know how to dance with it.

All given numbers are just examples.
All the skewing has to be done according to the market conditions at that given time.

But we have to develop a feeling for the...

Hi all,

i used to play a game with my scouts.
its for training for accuracy.
its called messenger.
a messaged is issued verbally.

Normally when the message returns to me.................

Good Morning again,

sorry but this is not how I do it, that is just a possible way to do it. Especially when your are trying to get a handle on attacking. (And I'm sure fti is doing it different too).

The problem is, that as soon as we are reacting based on fixed rules, we are starting to deviate from fti'S teachings strongly. A defined set of rules will never be able to cover the rythm of the market. We need flexibility in all our decision, not rigidity!

But however, it may be helpful for doing some steps on the dancing floor at all...

CU,
Niels
