Anyone going to trade EURUSD during NY open so we can discuss if entry points are justified or not?

Would be great if you could paste the adjusted Heiki Ashin and Stars/Arrow indicator you use there!! Thank you!
The arrow indicator you will find in the paperclip at the top of the thread because it was posted by realjumper. I am in the same buy without the heiken ashi or star indicators.

This is an entry I just made, it was 4 blue when I placed the order and by the time I get the screen shot ready Extreme turned red, but the price stays up so I plan to keep it going since I think that it will turn back blue.

Is this entry reasonable? Or should I have waited for another bar?

edit: closed at +1pip since it didn't repaint blue and the next bar stayed red too.

Well, based on the rules, yes it is correct.

IMO, I wouldn't take that trade because market is really quiet for the moment (no news coming out, greece thing yesterday), you're just few pips from the daily R1, stochs aren't really good placed on M5, you're near a 61.8 fib level.
E/U already made is highs this morning (around .32830).

As per the system it is a reasonable trade to enter. I wouldn't have entered though because the market is very sluggish and choppy so far today which makes trading difficult. If you have a look at the long tailed candles and all those doji looking candles over the past couple of hours, it's a sign that the market doesn't know what to do.

There's no high impact news scheduled to kick this thing along as far as I know, so I would be very hesitant to enter a trade at all for now.

Great, thank you! I want to be able to make sure I am getting the rules right, then I can start adding other consideration such as the points you mentioned and be able to pick a winning trade more often.

Just saw realjumper's post after I posted this one. Thank you realjumper for explaining your reasoning as well.

I would not have taken this although it does fit system rules...My reasons for not taking it would have been because. there was a good rally up this morning and now the market is taking a breather as it quite often does at this time of day..Also being close to the R1 line while market is slow is not a good idea..

I would now be waiting for the US Session to start a re-monitor the market..

Lost 30 pips today, rough day. In short right now currently at -9 pips, got long signal on M5 but I ignore it. I am switching to M15 TF. In the M5 TF signal keep switching from long to short, but because we are on around the top I'm more confidence in short ATM.

It's a difficult market today.....sometimes just keeping your money in your pocket is the best position to take

I'll be in sideways after closing this one, we'll see if this one give me some pips or make me lost more. No more trades before NY I think, but since I'm already in I'll stay till the end.

PS: My target is around daily S1 and SL just above R2.

Another test on upper trend line, and it bounces from there. Keep switching from long and short signal on M5. If she failed to break the trend line under, this one going nowhere.

Everyone should be very careful concerning long positions on the EURUSD because this has all the hallmarks of a failing 5 wave which is a very strong reversal signal. Make sure you watch closely the acending wedge formations for breaks to the downside as once this channel is broken that is a clear signal the market is reversing and the EURUSD will be dropping.

The Greece situation is a the perfect catalyst for this strong reversal so be careful with your longs and again watch the acending channel.

In otherwords....watch 1.32000 for a break there is a channel break and signals a drop.

5th Wave Failure

In some circumstances, Wave 5 is so weak that it fails to progress past wave 3, causing a double top at the end of the trend. Elliott called it a Failure, but it is also known as a truncated or abbreviated wave. Such cases are rare, but when visible it indicates that a market has prematurely lost strength and momentum or that a market that was previously weak has suddenly gained buying interest, depending on original trend direction:

Two trades already at +15, should be more than 30+ but still few pips from my TP(3 more pips and 5 pips from my previous target using measured moves). The price currently retesting my trend line, it bounce a bit ATM. I hope it holds.

Thanks for the analytics Eval. This week I am trading Olivia's trendline settings on the 30 minute charts. So far 59 pips today, but I have been exiting on a little discretion because this market is choppy right now.
