Damn, my long order at 4150 was triggered and closed 200 pips too early.

I hate doctor appointments. I should ask my health insurance for lost pip compensation.

I trade the higher timeframes, but my problem is the lower timeframes keep calling my name and telling me I should look, I should get caught up in their beautiful minute to minute bounces, which always suck me in and beat me hard over the head. It's an addiction I'm trying to control.
Same here... it's why I stick to the daily chart, well that, and the day job I have...

but, I have a lot more work to do before I am ready to go at the lower time frames.

Not really happy with a 65% batting average as opposed to the nearly flawless on the daily.

mmm I'm at 80% batting average, it's just those 20% have been real whoppers
I operate with clear definite rules, if I break them I lose BIG!

well im not really a chartist or a big gartley guy( i watch for em but dont trade strictly off them)
but isnt a crap an overshoot of the impulse wave to the 1.618 fib?

that puts us up back to the 4911 area( major major monster resistance)

Right more then wrong substantially, but gotta control that risk.

Is this what is allowing you to have a higher average, letting plays run into further draw down then what they should have been?

Harmonic patterns are never anything to ignore, IMO.

Never trade them without your signal and proper r:r though.

So glad I didn't take that short on ninja last night... 30 fricken pips, what a joke... i'm about ready to toss it out of my list of tradables.

Current pairs are fibre, cable, aussie, swissy and ninja. Anyone have a daily trader they would recommend replacing ninja with?

Yeah, I only try to become aware of them but don't use them in my trading as any type of confirmation.

But, I have seem them completely reverse trends from where they stand so it's good to at least be aware.

normally the lower TFS repaint a lot and that red box will shift with the price so never use that box as a SL indicator trust me

but in this case my system tells me the same thing....still have no idea where that bat/butterfly leads as TP on a short....I have my own TP on that and I noticed that gartleys usually go to 1/2 of the wing but it is no rule in that


p.s-do not use it solo

I still have yet to have a big trade on euro for over a week.

I opted for the cable buy due to euro being set a little more in supply (on the 19th). Cable's being a bit of a fat ass at the moment. lol
