Hughe question real quick, I know that everyone talks about support and resistance from higher time frames etc, what's your opinon? Do you mainly focus on ONE chart/timeframe at a time so you dont confuse yourself / make it more complicated, or do you watch multiple time frames:

Are trendlines+support and resitsnace still a huge part in your trading or are you mainly focused on the overall trend + heikni going in your favor.

Great thread!!
Thanks.

I see trendlines without drawing them these days but the I find the moving average most useful to tell me about the strength of the trend. Also the smoothness or otherwise of the way the heiken ashi candles are moving tells you a lot. If they are moving from runs of red to runs of green with only very few colour changes against the trend then you know the price is trending smoothly. Look at this period in euraud, nice and smooth ups and downs.

Yes, stick to one timeframe and follow what that tells you. If you get one losing trade you know there is something wrong with the trend, either it is slowing and about to reverse or is going to range for a while and then the trend will continue. After your first loss on a trend you must wait for the chart to tell you what will happen before you trade more or you are just throwing good money away. It is in trend transition periods that trend traders lose their money. That is why it is important to only trade strong trends. Fortunately in forex trends...
yes... totally agree..
thinking of sniper.... waiting for perfect timing, situation, condition..... and baanngggg.... mission accomplished.

Hey elbuitre.

Have a look at the 4h candle, could show a downward correction... stochs high, HA candle and trendline resistance....

I personally try to play it from the short side

let's make it as easy as possible ... think a little

w1 look ... oversold, divergences, candles wanting to upload next week (or next)

in h4 the ma 100 is within the bb .... Give him time to tell us to do ... possibly buy


are not fortune tellers ... is best to wait to talk the market, the candles

I think it's just a question wich tf we look at... looking at the daily I would also suggest to wait going long, but just looking at 4h it would be an entry... so it depends on the trading setup.

but in the end I think it's important to be consistent with the method...

Mr L, sorry, been busy. I see you're out +1, better than a loss.

I would say though that the trend direction needs to be verified before any more trades, I see too much sideways for now. By next week we should have more clarity.

Thanks Hugh
