Hi everybody,

I have a question what you do in this situation:

Let's say you wait for a signal: -> signal comes (e.g. breakout).

What do you do ? Wait for a pullback or do you jump in immediately ?
What is your experience with that ? I prefer the pullback but not always, I'm mixing, what do you think ?

Any tests made ? I like pullbacks more after the signal (R/R-Ratio) but you often miss moves (that's not the problem, I just wondering what's better: Just in or wait for pullback ?)

greets Jack
for breakouts i like to have some stop buy, so i m in immediately - especially at night when i am sleeping :-)
when i dont have a pending order i wait for the pullback - if it comes its ok, and if the market is running away there will surely be a next chance to make money ;-)

@WM-EU: Thanks for your reply ! Yes, I think if you have time you should only take pullbacks. I trade short term and often my entry is not that good on market order, so pullback is a good alternative.

@all: If market goes with your favorite direction do you go against it if market "overheat/overreact" in your direction ? Pic should take for itself:

Hi pips. 96 taken out already. I think the fiber is out to frustrate me this year. It has formed this habit of turning like 2 or 3 pips to my entries. But I really doubt shorts working out till release. I've observerd market trades in the direction of forecast on hopes till actual release. Which for today is north. I'm not in the long ride since I mentioned I was looking for 2760 yesterday. The foolish fiber turned at 2762 and it came back to pick patient dogs at 2770 but missed that too. I really pray the NFP comes with a big bang! That's where...
Hi Motion
sorry for the delay on getting back to you
forex factory is playing up on me today
l agree with your numbers
i took a short at 2806 and i would like to see it break below 96 again

IMO, I always treat NFP as a special trading day. Anything can happen, she could swing both directions 100-150 pips in a heart beat. I'm usually flat or scalping range a bit. Sometimes I'll park limit orders on the outer s/r level in hope to pick up a few trades. Other than that I'll wait till she shows true direction and ride the wave.

I already made over 1% in an hours trading and flat now till around NY open.

Cheers and GL.
You're right about the swing thing. That's why I always keep two levels in watch before the nfp. The first one it swings to is the wholesale price to send it in the main direction. Or if I'm skeptical, I just trade in the direction of the close of the hour after the release. It's that simple. Good to know you're up 1% already. Fiber is still angry with me. It keeps turning at 1 or 2 pips to my entries. And I don't have a choice than to just let it go. There'll always be a better trade.

Continuous green pips to you too man.

Waiting for a retest is a safer option . Trading the breakout is a less probable trade since the breakout could just be a spike.

What matters is the momentum. A sell bar that couldn't even close below 50% retrace of a previous bull bar shows there's buying momentum. Though it sounds like a cliche; the correct thing is "buy dips in a rally and sell peaks in a dip".

Just my simple opinion. In life, nothing is sure and so is price action.
Don't just beat the markets, leave bruises.

depends on the tf - when i trade in a short tf with trades opened only for some minutes/hours i trade also the reaction
in the long term trade i only trade with the direction

i used more accounts for the different tf - but in last months i traded nearly onyl in short term
