good question - Thank You,
where do You suggest I should move it ?

USD/JPY pin bar is forming on the 4hr, one to keep an eye on.

Any thoughts?

BTW, thanks to mbqb11 for the help and directing me to the videos. Learned a lot and brushed up on some concepts that I was a bit rusty on.

I think you misunderstand...That is a weak pin running straight into resistance. Coming from nowhere in particular... Not the best setup imho.

Yes, that is true small pin, straight into resistance area,
I thought there was a better place to put the sell stop order,

Thank You Jon

Bar looked very nice to me too, but skipped it due to all those previous bar highs. No room to go, I think...

Thanks, I think I learned something: The 'tails' from the highs of the previous bars might represent areas of demand?

Coming from nowhere in particular.

Good on you GJ for saying it in simple terms, yet without the enigma.

Just that phrase alone will take someone a LoooooooooooooooonG Way!

It did me.

I see,
I agree completly with that, Jon is right
I thought that strong downtrend and round number and the vicinty of old support - seen on daily better - would cover the weakness of a pin, and I belived that the distance of my sell order from the low of the pin would preserve me from opening while the price would continue move up,

Thank You Pinbar

Yeah, it is not only the PA, but where it comes from, that is the point, which GJ did a great job of explaining.

Yes, is like previous resistant now turns into support.
And in general we want to see more "space", here is a nice chart where Mike explained the concept of Space to me. See those diagonal lines are drawn until there is no room to draw them (means we are run out of space) with your PB we run out of space almost immediately, so no space, no trade for me...

I never posted on this thread before, but I would just like to give my regards to James and the rest of the guys selflessly helping people. It has taken me many years to understand on my own things that you are giving away for free on this thread.

Just would like to add my 2c to the GBP/CHF post

To me it could continue down from this level but I think it is a harder trade than needs to be because of how the market overall is behaving right now. We have markets in the down trend which leads to dollar strength so I would stick to dollar pairs for continuations, I hope this makes sense.

Welcome JW

GOing back to demo was the best decision you could have made

Very nice trade on the EU. I marked the trouble area that we needed to watch(which we are now passed. If price can close below this this has a good chance of turning into resistance as well.

Again welcome

Mike
Decided to close this one on a positive note. It will probably keep on going but 3:1 is gonna be good enough for me right now Coming off of live trading the lower time frames I am definitely going to have to get used to seeing 200 pip+ trades and being able to hold onto them.

Again thanks for your input. I'm new to posting in forums in general. I am hoping that posting charts here will force a little more logic and accountability into my trade ideas.
