Nice...good thing you nailed the price rejection south, there was just a messy consolidation during LDN. -10 is good because you are keeping your losses down , it is as important as hitting the +12`s consistently.

alright, i'm not at my platform at home but someone else want to fit a gartley to this sucker?

mighta did this wrong
yep, seems like a good sell at 1.065 with several levels concentraded in the area including h4 fib 23.6

EDIT: the gartley here is not the regular one though, perhaps should not be taken into account

i sat on the side and watched the Asian session climb 80 pips last night. then with the london data it was really hard to select my levels this morning. your suggestion in setting up 2 charts really worked well though and felt real confident in them once i finished. i love this system!

Interesting, I wonder if 40 pip blocks are feasable, on larger TF;s, ie 15min
I just took 50% of yesterdays candle, then expanded blocks +20% and -20% both ways.

Right now it's working into spacings of about 21 pips. This will of course adjust as daily highs/lows are bigger or smaller.

Sometimes it identifies bounces and turning points, other times it doesn't.

I had a peek when LDN opened and saw that the ADR was just about filled.
Yup 2 charts work better ...having too many lines on a chart just slows you down when you have to make a quick decision.
The system has been good to me, I still do some swing trading out of habit but I make a LOT more pips with dustbin trades.

Before london open, we might see 4180 again and then 4250 is also possible.
