On 15m charts, I use 30ema. If I drop down to 5m charts, then I have a 90ema equivalent on there.
Thanks. I have taken the sweetspots and phych leves off my charts. doing my head in looking at all those lines! added a 30 ema though.

Yeah, I have to admit that I did the same a while ago, for the same reasons!! I just don't like clutter on the chart, so I just try and be aware of any major psych-lines in the vicinity of any potential trades.

Nice trade, David. Been otherwise occupied today, which is why I haven't been on before now, although I was logged in.

This is a nice one on the 15m Cable.

After the bullish engulfing pattern formed right under the quarterly pivot line, the next candle barely touched/tested for support before heading up. Entry above the high of the engulfing candle. The MA came in handy as a S/R reference point and a decision maker as to whether to stay in or not.

This is a sort of follow-up to the last trade.

After price hit the MA and then retraced to the mid-point level, a nice dragonfly doji formed. The next candle blew through the MA, and entry was just above the high of the retracement candle prior to the doji. I was happy to exit just above the quarterly-point level with a nice quick profit.

Hi capstone. Can you tell me where exactly your entry point was? Just curious, brother!

1.3515. The first fall away from the resistance was the intial set, the following candle gave me pause, the signal candle came, and enter on the break of the body. SL is very small this way. Riskier than the M15 chart though....I still like your style and am trying to get a feel for those M15 sticks.

Thanks for the info, capstone. Much appreciated. It helps when one can see exact entry and exit points.

As for 15m charts...... Go on YouTube, and subscribe to Steve Nison's charts. He goes by the handle of "candlemannj". You'll find a short video on there showing examples of trading 15m candles with Pivot Points. Well worth watching.

Thanks again, brother!

I will try to add those things you add to your photos next time. Also, thanks for the video info. He has a lot of videos on there, I will look through them. I have read "Beyond Candlesticks" and found it very useful. Thanks again.

You're welcome, Delite, and the same to capstone as well.

All is much the same as usual here, thanks for asking. Hope your trading is going from strength to strength!

Morning, iak. Would that be EU? If so, it's hung up on the quarter-point line at the moment, with a very bullish candle trying to breach the MA.
