what's up with your charts?

I'm sure there's something useful you'd like to share, but the super sized fonts and stuff make them impossible to read.

Click on the chart.....then click on it again to zoom in......it is very very clear then.......I put the big fonts on so people can read me notes as to why I entered a trade and to people why I expect price to move a certain way......I don't have a live broadcast to verbally communicate what I see in a chart....so I do my best by putting notes on the chart and then a few more notes in my post - sorry that you can't read it.....I only use two indicators and a few moving averages.....actually a very clear and neat chart.......hope that helps!

As for font size....I have total control over font size......I can decrease font size....I thought it would be better so that people could read it.....let me know!


Cheers,

Does your front end brand them that way when you save out?

If so, I'd definitely complain.

Also.....a lot of people here just post a chart with no comments on it at all....just the price action/candlesticks.....and in your post they say things like....well this is what I see.........and I say....ya my chart tells me the same thing....I have the same candlesticks etc......but what EXACTLY do you see....put a note on your chart....or elaborate in your post.....etc.....that is what I try to do......pass on knowledge.

I understand what you're saying about the notes.

What's the GLOBEX@6BZI thing?

The pound futures........I only trade the futures....I trade all currency futures - pound, swissy, cad, euro etc.....as well as commodity futures like oil, gold, nat gas etc............heading for lunch now.......can reply back with more info if you want.....or PM me.......thanks.

The 6B is pound futures....and the Z1 is the month expiry.

Well, this is how I do it:

You don't need 15 monitors to trade 15 pairs, do you? what you need is just to analyze 15 pairs separately ( I really mean separately - I don't believe in correlation. I know there's some percentage of correlation in pairs; EU down GU down, but I like to think that they behave separately - this might helps with your decision in trading certain pairs and eliminate conflicts in your decisions.)

Once you have analyze them, what you have to do is to put you pending orders. Not all instruments can be traded in the same time, right? So, in daily basis, maybe you will find like 2 pairs can be traded on that particular day, while others should be put on hold and notes whatever you find in your trading dairy so that you won't forget your setups.

Hope that helps.

Mate, I've traded futures for years so I understand the symbols and month expiry. But I've never seen it branded so large across a chart so was wondering why.

More screens are always better, but it's like a vacuum. as soon as you get more real estate you find ways to fill it.

In my trading room, I watch 8 screens and still have stuff piled up in the background. on the same note, I trade on a 17" laptop when I travel, and somehow it really doesn't feel limiting.

more is better, but less done well is pretty much the same.

maybe. this was the daily support test, right on the dime.

I didn't plan past this point yet...

the little doji around 5600 is stuck in my head though. (black circle) so even though I'm playing it safe getting off the bus here, I'm curious to see if it gets tested. but if the daily candle closes back above the MPP then I'm backing the truck up for 5900.

updated chart.
... rofl

let's see if 5700 holds.

yep. this is key for reversal or rejection. already long though, if it flops, then paint me in tar and ride me backwards out of town on a donkey.

thanks for replky guys
what i mean is better shown below

this is my typical working way
i have main chart on the right where switch to m30-h4
then left faster TF switch 1m-15m

this help easy to define entries at extremes helped by faster TF
for example i got long 5636 helped by m1 chart on the left showing divergence where h1 was hitting that dotted line.....
already closed for 25 pips

i do same thing for GU n EU but its impossible to switch from 1 pair to another, too much things imo.
so: or i buy a new monitor, or i trade only 1pair ....

this is the downside test here.

if it holds we keep going. if not... and keep the pips, no shame.

Price just hit 38% and rebound. I think if we can get consolidation/dojis in this area, I think might be best to place long in the next 1 or 2 daily candles...

My preferred price to long is 5485-5565 area (50-68% of retracement area). Hopefully, it doesn't just get to 38% only..
