i want to see confirmation for friday bars on monday next week.

as expected...
Hey Aserbfx,

What kind of confirmation would you look for on the Monday bar? My Monday bar looked bullish...it retraced a bit but later made a move up. To my amateur eye it looked positive.

1. yesterdays bar was smaller than the day before.
2. look at H1 chart: price moved above the friday bar and then collapsed for nearly 100 pips. after this it went back up and closed slightly above the friday bars high.
i like to see a strong wide range bullish bar for confirmation. something that went straight up without a doubt. a bar where you can see buyers returning.
force, power, strength

So, hypothetically, if this Monday bar had been the solid bullish move you are talking about, how would you enter? Would you look for a retracement to get in, or would you just take the trade at the bar close? Or just lower frame PA?

Thanks

So this is over. As Mike escorted me through this one one last question to this trade.
Mike, would you escape some other place if you were in that one, or leave your stop below Monday's candle till the end? It even had some positive pips before Monday close.

Hope I'm not cluttering the thread with dumb questions here, but if someone could comment on my thoughts process on these, that would be ace.

On the GBP/USD D1 we have a BeOB. The move down has been strong so this looks like atrend continuation? At first it looked like the price had been rejected at the 1.583 making it a good sell, however it looks like the first trouble area is right below at 1.57. It looks a little tight so this is a no trade. Are there any other reasons one would/wouldn't take this trade?

Thanks

Hey M

I personally hate that situation this puts you in. I think worst case our stop needs to go under that next days low, cause if that gives we see what happens. In reality and what I spoke about to some people today was we need to watch that FTA and if it doesn't go hard just get out. Just simply not a big enough bar and confluence in my eyes. I am watching closely now the retest of this last swing low for the true potential reversal

support turns resistance... a small pinbar, enough reasons to take a small trade for me

Hey Don

First trouble area. This is what we look at as the real first immediate place price can stall. Often very close, but it plays a big role depending on the type of trader. The worse a trade is the more closely you need to watch these areas. Or the more consolidation you are in the more you have to watch these areas. They help greatly in game planning a trade

Hey Los

Also remember we want BEOBs up at swing high points when learning. This is down near a swing low trading back into that last reversal point. This is what makes continuations more tricky to me and should be learned after learning them in the locations James16 teaches us

Great answer mike. I understand. Thanks.

I've been out of touch of forex and haven't really traded live since news spike strading got sour. I usually follow James16 thread but now i'm lost with some of these new terms. Is there an appendix page in this thread that explains these abbrv??
