Interesting setup HB, I can see you are using range bars

As for different pivots its because you need to set GMT offset in your indicator to match brokers' timezone.

Diferent time zones, or maybe working hours - some brokers dont work on Sunday.
Also in pivot calculation - some use Sunday data, some dont.

DP @ 1.2735 on my chart (Sunday data included, GMT+0 TZ)

Interesting....manual calculation says 2743 ( GMT), ZMFX 2764 ( sunday data)
ZMFX 2734 ( No sunday candle data), camarilla 2727..

2735 i guess...

Yes, I use Heiken Ahsi for breakout trading. They lag by 1 candle but they give more precise entry and thats what we need for BO ( breakout)- to filter false breakouts.

I have already closed at 2745 ( daily support-first support to the downside). The boxes what u see are FRACTALS that show last H/L ( easier to spot- I have many charts opened)

DPP rejection, so again morning expectations have been valid.

Quoting T@rantula
Good morning guys.

We are in buy the dips mode. Sell around tops and I WILL definitely sell around 2892 IF we reach there.
Quoting T@rantula
Its buy the dips on lower TFs, Sell potential is still higher and h4 suggest we need to sell the peak, need to b careful, H4 looks like it might retrace to 2820+

long 2789, SL 10

addon:
banked 1/4 on +8, SL on BE from +12

aiming at 2820 for another partial banking, wishing 2860

  • May 22, 2012 2:26am May 22, 2012 2:26am
banked all at the end on +11.... (wanted to leave 1/4 for hero or zero, but mistakenly banked all)

reason: dont like PA on euro, and on other USD pairs, could be another test of DP

Opened a Short @ 1.28. Reason failure to break UTL on H4
SL: 1.285
Target:retest of 1.272 - 1.273, possibly lower
I'm expecting a bounce back up to break 1.2830, reaching 1.29 before another leg down

Hello guys!

Excellent trading today from your side as I can see it. I have missed trading today, was at the meeting, now im back here at the desk.

As we spoke today, buy the dips ( lower TFs), sell the tops, that is exactly what has happened.

Today it was all about selling the tops and lower TF retracements, while longs have been a bit risky...

Now we have 2767-72 resistance zones and sells could be attempted just around there, on confirmation.

Allways nice to have small spread. I would not survive that with mine 2.7 pips spread. Banked 5 pips only on cable short, for which I obviously wasnt patient enough. Also have small stake on Gold short from 1580.34 (SL 1583).
