Looks like a valid buy signal to me brother. Where is your 50ema?
sorry but I read now
I need 50ema?



P.S.
I read it now..... so do you use ema50(exponential, high) to set a buy stop point? or only in breakout?

Hi Danyjoe.

The 50 ema is added as this can show a range market. If it is laying flat market is going sideways. Also think of it as support and resistance. For example if price has broken the balance line but close to the 50 ma then wait for it to break. Set you pending order just above or below the ma. The reason is that the 50ma can act as S/R and price may bounce. If you are in a trade and PA is heading towards the 50ma then I look to clear partial profits here as same again price may hit the ma and bounce.

I hope this helps
Happy trading all. Titch

Hi all,

Eur/jpy and usd/chf are trying to break the balance line. There is little resistance there and wait for it to break.

No trading for me today. Because of the teacher strike today I have my 5 year old son at home. Hard to trade when you have a 5 year old running around with a plastic gun shooting you all the time and you have to play dead!
I hope you all have a great day trading.
I am off to play cop's and robbers!

Teach him to trade
He will be emotionless in his choice of entry and when to move the trailing stop
Should work like a dream

Better than any EA

Watch out for USD/CHF on H1 in 18 Mins. Could be a Short possibility.

It truly is judgemental. For me the closer to the blue line it closes, the more powerful the signal, that and coupled with a good angle to the blue line.

Hi Colo,

Thanks for a great thread. Question: What are your general considerations when deciding whether, on the close of a candle, the distance from the blue line is too great. I assume this is largely a judgement call?

Hello Colostarr

Hello Colostarr,

Interestingly i observed that the setup candle with a pin bar is giving more success. Please ignore if i am wrong.

Absolutley Pin Bars or divergent candles almost always provide a means for entry. If you see an opportunity to enter after a divergent candle - go right on ahead.

But last I checked this isn't called the Simple Simon Pinbar method.
