long 3383. Not sure why I am entering an order right now. Boredom mostly.


Eh... price still behaves as price regardless of a lot of liquidity or not. Currently +13. Looks like the first round of beers is on me tonight!

Have you tried doing dustbins on higher time frames... like say, the Daily and dividing it up into 100 pip lines? If you stayed consistent with your 5m (@20) = 12 pips, your targets would be 60 pips.

I guess that would be more like rock bins, eh?!? Ohhh, Weekly = Boulder Bins... somebody stop me now before I patent all this!

Supply and Demand.

Your bottom line lined up with a 50% of a 5m demand level, which was my entry.

Out at 3400, back into supply. +16 it is. Momentum is currently long.

heck no. you do dustbins off m5 like it or leave it. but a higher timeframe system is something i am looking into now. will be a while though and in the meantime compounding is king

hey we finally beat you guys ... you know, U of M versus Ohio State. I love every minute of it

Make sure for your daily charts, get something that is all about trading with the trend. I know it's cliche as hell as it's talked about all the time.. but... it's so true. Higher highs and lower lows... all you gotta know is which we are making. Then position build as it rallies or dips.

haha... yeah; now were bringing in Meyers where he is getting a big ol paycheck. Glad to see the streak ended myself... All in keeping the rivalry alive and what not.

Ohh... I say bring it on! I already know how you have it planned out... tossin me out of your plane... Zoinks! No one would be the wiser. I bet the fall would be a blast though... the collision with the ground might be a bit painful.

My levels are all dynamic, based off of what is currently happening on the chart. I didn't know I would be buying here until price rallied the first time an hour or so ago. lol
