Hi dddd

Great trade
What is this pair?
Did you hit your target?
If not what is your target?
Last – Why/how did you choose your target?

Thanks

Hi dddd

usd/sgd what is it - sorry I do not know that pair, is it the hong kong Dallor vs the USD dallor?

hector style price projection- what is that? is it A+B = C+D?

thanks again

with all due respect, you can simply google "usd/sgd" and found out. respectfully. yes, usd/sgd is singapore dollar against the usd. watch any of hectors video on youtube....or read the archives on this thread...there are countless examples.

Hi DDDD

Price projection

I have read the thread 1 time and I am re-reading it. There is a lot of info I am in fact doing study notes, I am a teacher by trade.

I am also doing between 5 and 10 videos a day.

I have not seen price projection I have likely missed them.
I have seen other, the only thing I have seen here ie

a. Targets for breakouts are normally set by the pip distance they have been ranging in. ...... Just a rule of thumb ie. flag targets are based on the length of the flag pole

thanks

Well

My watch list is smaller

gbpjpy 1 hour
cadjpy 3 hour
gbpusd 4 hour
eurcad 30 mins
nzdusd 3 hour
usdsgd 3 hour
I really like the gbpjpy setup

I have put on two trades.
usdchf 30 min and 5 mins up 40 pips 1st target .7755
cadjpy 60 min and 15 mins up 10 pips 1st targets 80.05

The hardest thing and the thing I am learning is to just put on the trades and let them run until they run out of gas. Do not play with them!

I found Hector's 3 SMA videos (free). Pure price action. Good stuff.
Would you share the free video of PA?
Thanks in advance

Took a short position in usd/sgd. entered at 1.2269
Quoting chazbo 3071
I just found this thread today. Hope it stays alive. I'm using divergence with a trendline break on the lower time frame. Hopefully this SMA set up and using the lower time frame for entry will give lots of high probability opportunities.
I like MAs.
What are your MAs used?
Cheers

I am done for the day. I am going to take my family swimming

The trades I have on, are.
gbpjpy 1 hour 15 mins down 9 pips 1st targets 124.55
usdchf 30 min and 5 mins up 116 pips my 2st target I will keep moving the swings down (1st target was taken out earlier )
cadjpy 60 min and 15 mins up 25 pips 1st targets 80.05

I am still not sure if the ATR/ADR will work in the New York trading time, does anyone else use it? I am just using RNs and Impulse Wavelength for targets. Is there anyone in the New York trading time using the ATR/ADR

Thanks

I am not sure I am the one to answer. But as it looks like it’s only the two of us, let me say what I think it is, and what I have been reading here. Then someone who knows what it really means can tell us both

RNs are the 100s and 50s on the charts i.e., 125.50 or 1.4200
The bankers and really big traders use these are targets and stops.
And more the futures guys use them,

IW - I never hear this term before here but I believe they are just the swing, but it’s more than that; it’s a number of the swings in tandem.

RRR : I would do at lease 2:1 Hector says 3:1 I think 1.5:1 is small

I hope that is helpful.
