No problem CFX. No we don't wait for lower lows, just for the 3 taps and the 3 RSIs to be long. It's very simple. That's a fairly big change though and the set up won't come fast.
Thanks (once again!) .

So say an uptrend has 3 taps, gone up 50 pips or so, and continues in an uptrend... after 3 taps do you start a new tap and then wait for another 2?

Or do you just hold out and wait until the new period before doing another trend?

thanks, sorry for various questions really appriciate you taking your time to answer them.

I am in this too. Let hope to see a new high.
There was H4 3Tap and trigger but it seams to have no steam. Should i quit it at BE or wait? That is a QUESTION.

I don't know where you got in....
I expect a 'session' high LFB.... but I don't tend to scalp either...
It will take hours....
No more USD news coming due... the PA seems 'normal' to me...

Daily is still pointing up. News and data also supports it. I believe it will continue uptrend but would be slower after hugh spikes.

I'm prepared to BE or suffer loss using MM and reasonable trade amounts.
ALWAYS use good MM practices.
ALWAYS.
NEVER bet the farm.

PA has stalled.
Took profits. Done for the day.

It may 'still' recover... but
the PA has given signals I've learned to respect.
If we fall into consolidation on the 1 hr
we look for the BO.

Cheers,
G.

I would like to ask what do you think about GBP/JPY H4 chart. There are two huge (80 pips) candles long and then short. It doesn't look usual, should we expect that last month up trend will be reversed soon?
Sorry it's taken me so long to answer, LFB. I can't tell now what PA is going to do. This is a volatile pair, so I always approach it with caution.

In this trade since 2 hours back, was a possible BO then, but went up. Looks like it will try again, I hope with more succes now although there is some nice support visible on the H1 chart.
Please post the pair, so we don't have to look back to see which pair you are referring to.

On a good trend, 3 taps can be drawn several different times. I haven't seen much of that in the past few weeks however.

Price is in a 6-7 hour consolidation. I would look at it from the H1 chart now and make sure there is a CBO before going long.

The best thread in years.... it's a privilege!

As you say.... "I'm Bored".... and then you channel trade...

I just jumped in....
'sometimes'... about this time in the session
with a nice drifting counter trend...
it can be good for a nice multi candle drop
after the period separator... pre Tokyo open.
Dunno... a small wager... just putting the thought out there FWIW.
