Hi Ill-b-back,

Thanks for your advise. I know you are telling some very good points but as a novice, it is a little bit difficult for me to understand fully.

I will appreciate if you could explain your suggestions a little bit more simple way.

Thanks

Hi Bashi, sorry was in the middle of a large micro lot trade before, had to be brief. I would study the candle stick reversal patterns, look for long wicks. For a short trade for example use the equidistant tool to connect 2 long wicked candles above the 14sma then drag the parallel line down to a long wicked candle below the sma and take profit if and when the line is hit. It was the 2nd strategy I learnt and while it won't always win, with practice I found it profirable. It is largely mechanical except finding the reversal points. On this pair, the long wicks stand out more so is a little easier. At work away from computer so no pic but feel free to contact. Cheers

Also, am not aware that mt4 display can be split up across multi monitors. As far as I know, it can only show on one at a time.
The display isnt a problem. It is possible to spread the display over multiple monitors by not using the "full screen" option. With the main MT4 window in "reduced" size it can simply be stretched as far as you like as long as the monitors are set as 1 large monitor. As soon as you hit the full screen optin it will revert the main window to the primary monitor only.

Indeed it does. Well noted. But, frankly, this is a trading forum. Who needs to see your account balance, let alone your silly drawings. Exchange information, show charts, have fun. But your personal account is just that ... personal. Of no interest to anyone else. 'Nuff said.

Fair enough. But MT4 windows cannot be easily floated across other monitors. It would be nice. However, i just found someone who's marketing an "add-on" to achieve this. I found it easily on a Google search. In the meantime, the template and profile settings will go some way towards what you're after (i think).

.gsantri seems to know what he's doing
naah.. it was just my lucky day.
if the conclusion drawn regarding my post on last Sunday, I think everybody here can do that.

from the weekly candles I saw there was a trade opportunity with MINIMUM RISK.
After 2 previous candles were bullish, and the 3rd closed bullish as well, although with tails on both side which is almost equal in length. means there was a fierce fight there.

whether the bulls would give up that easy after a struggle on the last 3 weeks? at least until Wednesday (yesterday) before the BOE's rate announcement..

FIBO: if the entry is at 50.0 and SL 23.6 fib so the risk to reward ratio becomes 1 : 2+.
that if the price is only able return to the 100 Fib. above that of course is a jackpot bonus.

hope it helps
