Hi lawgirl, thanks for your method. I was into forex from last year, but got stalled and am considering to start again. I like your method, because trading what you see is actually what I like to do, but so far have not found the right system.

Anyway, I want to know whether your system is to gain 100 pips or more and to hold for a week or two, or more like scalping (10-20 pips) and then out?

Also, I am still confused with the 3 taps; from where do you need to draw the trendline? For example, I attached USDCHF. Are we waiting for the third tap, or has it already passed?

Thx

Not sure what has been going on in my brain, but the last week and a half, I have lost a ton! I was pretty consistent on picking good trades, and I don't think I changed anything, but it just seems like every single trade I go in to, I end up losing. What do you do when you are on a consistent losing streak?

I have been doing okay on the BO, but for every 1 good trade I have, I will have 3 or 4 bad ones. Maybe I am getting in to too many trades.

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...
You're in a poker game with a good hand. (imo)
I have lost at GBP/USD trade but fortunately i have reached my TP at GBP/JPY which gave me few pips more then GBP/USD taken away.
Today looking at GBP/JPY i think we have Between the Hammer and the Anvil situation. From one side we have strong resistance at yesterdays high (at daily candles it looks like it bounced down) from the other we have uptrend line (for uptrend since third of January). I believe that todays data announcement (which will happen in 1.5 hour) will push market through one of those. Personally i am more convinced it will continue long but i can be wrong as usually.

Rather i expect that after news it will follow the trend started 3.01, if the news will be good i will have better chances for this.

Looks like no impact on EUR news. half more hour to GBP news.

Long runs is not we see a lot recently. This were are my hopes at GBP/JPY are today. I see that we today have nice 4C BO short, but my questions for answering ball are: Are we already at maximum for this BO? Will it once again reverse and BO to the other side following last month trend?
If you have such ball please ask it for me
