Will add a position.
On a BO trade would you only add to your position after price has cleared the channel?

For the daily entry you watch for the weekly and daily RSI and then are you dropping to 15m before entering to check current direction?

Sorry for all the questions

Questions are how you learn, friend. Don't mark them as apologetic, this forum welcomes them from what I see.

Just try to sort them into one reply, not 3.

Thanks for the help!
The first four hours set our daily range against which we measure or judge price action. It makes us ordered (if that makes sense), by setting our boundaries. It gives us a structure or framework from which we can function. That's really all there is to it.

Yes, you are correct in thinking that any consolidation period of 4 or more candles could make a good set up. Again, that would give us a period of time from which to measure price action. It can and does work on any TF.

H1 4C is my way of finding a point of reference in a market that is in continuous motion.

Pippete,

I like your MT4 indicators and I've tried to find them on the web but I haven't been successful. I am referring to the ones that indicate the current pair name, time frame, spread, pip range, candle duration, and current price.

Are these indicators provided by your broker or are they available on the web?

This is my first post and I know it is not directly related to the subject of this thread, and I hope it is not inappropriate for me to ask this here. I am following this thread with interest and I do hope to start trading using...
Hey Biking,
Just got back after the long weekend, the indi I use is found at top right of page, click on the paperclip, then "block images" and it's the "Symbol Info label" indi. welcome to the tread!

On a BO trade would you only add to your position after price has cleared the channel?
I have never added to a position on a H1 BO trade. They can certainly catch a trend, but that is not the purpose of them. Their purpose is to make 20-80 "fast" pips.

Hi LG,

Loving your thread by the way, i made 100 pips on my first GU trade using this strategy.
Quick question, do you always use 30pips SL on your 3T trades?
Glad you are making pips, bez3000. The only setup that I always use a 30 pip SL is on the daily Moneytree entry.

That 30 pips is the price I am willing to pay to "probe" the direction...hoping my probe or scout will survive until the next day at about the same time. If it does survive, I will look to add a position (a branch on my Moneytree).

So what you are saying is that you ignore pivot points? I never heard of a system that ignores such important leading indicators as pivot points. That's kinda like packing up a picnic basket and a cooler of beer, packing a beach blanket and going to the beach on a cloudy day when weather channel forecasts thunder storms all day.
Yes, we pay no attention to pivot points here..only S/R areas.

Sorry for all the questions
No, for the daily entry, what I am gong to call the Moneytree entry, it is more simple than that. Weekly and daily in same direction. I look to quality of the candle on the daily chart, then enter or wait awhile to see if quality changes before entry.

For example: Look at the AUDJPY daily chart. I did not like the quality of the last few candles and did not enter that trade, even though weekly and daily RSIs confirmed direction. However, CC did enter. I haven't looked at the chart yet this morning to see how it did....could be that qualiy made no difference...
