chart self explanatory....as Tom would say "killer area"

Although I know he's no fan of the crosses.


I had to take this one, or I would have quit trading and got a job delivering pizza.

The power of a an obvious flip....i think I'll order some pizza to the house.

How to go

I'm now trying to grapple with the thought that I'm taking the 95% of the other peoples money while the banks/brokers win all the time(I think).

If you are one of the fortunate few who can extract a living from the markets then I'm sure you have earned the right to do so through hard work and perseverance. You too were one of those 95%.

It does take a long time to get here. but.....
You are never truly here..... for if you think you are.. that is the time you will fall..
Allways be willing to listen. Allways be humble. & you will find what it is you are looking for...

Is this luck?
Some awesome charts as of late, this one looks to be ready to break the horizontal barrier with the consistant new high lows occuring (spider setup I think you call it here).

Luck my friend only exists in the mind of the gambler here and your charts as of late are showing what Tom is trying to get others to see and that is credible setups in areas and situations that over time have proven to work time and time again. If anything with the success of these setups, a failure of one could be deemed unlucky but luck is somewhat removed as you are trading a plan with open eyes to these situations. I missed the first trade CAD/JPY, the cross is not on my radar but the chart just had that 'standout' look.

Ive vouch because you are showing others the setups that Tom has discussed and the trades you appear to be taking are sound and logical.

As Xfd stated, dont feel bad, you were there at one stage and no one felt bad taking your coin and to back up Rustyjeff, dont get too far ahead of yourself. Continue to take the high class setups and take the money to the bank (your bank).

Loving your stuff

Well done and Take care

Thank you for the kind words RT. I know the market can humble you very quickly, particularly if you can not admit when you are wrong.

I hope Tom doesn't mind me posting stock charts(but need to find other opportunities).

For what it's worth-----Here's another stock on my radar. I have learned through the years, that with stocks, I must be very careful...consider S&P, gaps, volume, news, earnings, order book, options expiration, and other variables.

H&S right shoulder forming on S&P, therefore everywhere on USD pairs H1 charts, watching for shorting retests at left shoulder S/R levels...

Cheers Tom for the S&P watch advice, wouldn't/couldn't trade without it now!
