Hi Alex,

You could trade this but IMHO I would look for another pair - the risk reward is lousy and it's stuck in a box(consolidation).

It could go either way - so 50/50 IMO. Certainly not an A+ trade which is what we should be looking for (JMHO)

K.I.S.S.

ps - stop apologising for your English - it's fine.

You like to pick the hard ones don't you Alex

It's also stuck in a box but if I got a pinbar at resistance I might be tempted - trend is down but the fundamentals are long biased - ppl are buying the dollar ATM bcos they are worried about war in ME(JMO).

volume shows entry of sellers. a short below 80 eur could do the trick.

Double bottom weekly and daily level... Will it hold as resistance?
Yes.

Partial profits off the table (as it was a friday entry), ultimate target highs of the consolidation area.

+Good close, shape, no traffic to the left, at swing low.
- Weak size that seems a profit taking candle rather than a reversal one.
- Monthly and weekly trend bullish.
+Direct trend is in sync (Bearish) (provided that a Sell Stop order pending below the Shooting Star low is filled)
- There is a weekly support direct ahead at 1.0608 that will challenge us on trade management.
- It was formed at a level with weak confluence of resistance levels. The trend line and the mid-big round number.
+Large bearish wedge.

Based on my analysis, the weekly shooting star is not tradeable.

I like the story you got there gado, on the Mothnly LCS level (my feed is little different).

I like your S/L placement. What you can do is have your 2% in that S/L placement, but if a Daily or even a Weekly bar closes below that entry level . .you can get out with a much smaller lose , percentage-wise.

Also you could wait for some good PA on a lower TF, like the Daily, and use the PA S/L placements .
Thank's a lot jarroo. It like james16 max. risk percentage, mustn't risk more than 2% of the account.

Also for the Stop Loss, it give me another option to manage my Stop Loss.

Nice Charts. I am wondering how can you trade equities where there is always a possibility of a gap after a good PA setup??? Also what if the after market will alter the shape of a PA setup???

+ Good shape and size. There is traffic to the left BUT the strong close above traffic and parity as well as the violation of the BEOC (2-2-12) high eliminate this negative element
+ Monthly at a range BUT after an uptrend. The range is above parity and the two day BUOC closed above the MTDL
+ Weekly at a range BUT after an uptrend. The range is above parity and the two day BUOC closed the WTDL
+ Direct trend is in sync (bullish) (provided that a buy stop order pending above the two day BUOC is filled)
+ There is NO internal unconfirmed weekly resistance but we must pay attention to the parity level that is acting as psychological support where price must confirmed it
+ The two day BUOC was formed at confluence of support levels. (0.9931 CNF WS, WTDL, MTDL and parity
+ The FCL identified at 1.0100 which is satisfactory to manage the trade
Based on the above the two day BUOC is tradeable.

I will place a buy stop 12 pips above the high of the 2 day BUOC, SL at the low and take full profit at the 1.0100. Risk less than 2%.

Hi aserbfx,

Wow, you know a lot of Indonesian food. I'm very surprising because martabak telor and soto ayam is not very popular in foreign. How do you them ?

PBTCB Monthly LCS in Weekly, but fail to act as Resistance and Close Above agian, Now I looking to buy at LCS because I think it will have a chance to turn into Suport again.

My target is in green line.

Is my setup in this pair already correct, jarroo?

My other question is about the Stop Loss :
I’m going to place my Stop Loss below the bar that close above and cause a huge pips. Is there anyway to reduce the Stop loss place?
My take on UC.

Look at the latest few daily bars... BEEB, 4xDIB's then a BUOB. Why make things difficult for ourselves - K.I.S.S........It's stuck in a box, wait for it to show us a direction...eventually it will breakout and when it does our risk reward will improve dramatically and we will have some momentum.

As an aside can I ask why and when all this PBT, CA, CB started. I seem to remember from page 1 that James advocates waiting for, and only trading the A+ trades.

Maybe it's just me but I just can't see any A+ trades when I try with the new PBT method

Hey Stew how are you bud


This is something Jarroo introduced on how he personally pinpoints trade areas. It is certainly not the traditional James16 although a direct variation of what the same concepts are.

I am reminded of this and since you brought it up this quote is perfect time to be reinstated. As well as those that are just stumbling on to this thread please please start from post 1

so those of you that are new this is why we try to be diligent that the basics and the core of what you should be learning is the basic material first.


Good time to remind the new traders and keep them focused

Mike

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THOSE NEW TO THE THREAD ON VARIATIONS TO THE ORIGINAL BASIC MATERIAL. 2/15/10

I see there is a debate about this. ive asked several people opinions and this was mikes.

" I think there is just no way to keep things "clean" in a huge public thread like yours. So you are going to have everyone's different viewpoints/methods all at the same time. Since they are all based off the same concepts I don't have anything wrong with it, we just have to be diligent in reminding the newbies the proper precautions and steps to take."

I agree with mike but im concerned nontheless.

We all know the basic material can truly help new people find some early success and we all know how critical that phase is.

I have zero problems with variations based off of the basic material but we must always make sure that new people understand what is best for them early on.

To do that I need the variation people to openly be willing to tell new people that demoing there variation is fine but they should concentrate on the basic material.

Obviously what we do here is simple but I DO NOT want new people coming out of the gate taking blind touch trades THINKING THAT IS WHAT THE THREAD WAS DESIGNED TO TEACH. NO NO NO.

You touch traders etc have fun and do your thing but help me keep the new people out of trouble.

I will put this in post 1 for reference.
