Hi,

I like your PDF and it will definitely be of use to new traders. I think what you might want to point out is that you have essentially shown a breakout retest and continuation pattern.

Also the idea of using the closes of candles as your S+R line confuses me a little as most major areas are defined by the candles actual wicks. Doesn't it make sense to use these as break through points as they will surely be another a giant hurdle to contend with as price moves towards them??

Just to illustrate what I mean I was wandering what your take would...
You maybe right , but would it make a difference ? Plus , breakout is a word that has long been connected with the uncertainty for the newbie ... Uncertainty of either a breakout is legit or not , is it a fake out , how thick a zone be from where we should measure a breakout ETC ETC ...

I can't say that I agree with you on this ... Major areas maybe sometimes defined by wicks but mostly , its defined by closes at swings . Reason ? Simple , these are the area's from where for some reason price could not close across from ... And when it does , doesn't it provide us with confidence that it will hold again ??? Wicks are important but I think to be only used a targets ...

With the chart you provided , or in any other example , how certain can one be that just using wicks will provide the price with enough strength to push it in our favor ...??? More often then not , price is crossing some jumble of wicks , do we take em all ??? If so , then where would the concept of selectivity go ? We would be taking alot of trades then and wouldn't we be overtrading ???

Agree???

Hey Rico , I am going to add those two rest chapters in there soon . I did not added it first time because I thought that it would confuse a complete newbie . First they should be aware of the Basics ...

I do think its a great Idea but I have done my part almost buddy . That's up to the seniors now what they want to do ... You can ask them with your idea's I think . Mike for instance ...
Regards
Thats cool Chanya, Ill look out for the updated version. Thanks again, great job!

Seems good enough . See the chart below and notice the blue line as first level where you should move to BE .. Yellow is where stoploss should be behind ... I would say Let this one go . I do not have a good feeling about this one . Can't explain why ..
The trade would go against the underlying trend and that long bullish bar looks like a news announcement or something. I tend to go with the trend if possible.

Hi Siam,

These are just different techniques.

Jarroo has created a technique/method were he uses monthly, weekly and daily closes (opens too as important areas to watch and there he will look for breaks and turning points.

And the traditional way of looking important areas in PA is the wicks.

I would say both work.

Attached is the chart you were asking. If used small buffer there with Jarroo style, and then would have been in. Jarroo also talks about the small buffers. This would have required 4 pip buffer if used the lowest open and 7 pips if used the lowest close.

I have to say I like the simplicity of the 'breakout, retest and continuation' conecpt for this method Siam - its nice and logical. I am still confused about the logic of some of the other entries posted, but maybe I am just cautious.

Thanks Chanya for the PDF. In relation to LCS and HCR which swings do you identify as significant? As I am looking at current price on many pairs my eyes are drawn to the swings, some obviously big and some obviously too small but sometimes there are some that I'm not sure about. In some preliminary backtesting I find that even some of the not so big swings are tradeable but I would prefer to trade the best ones. I'm sure with practice it will come to me but any insight you have would be helpful.
Thanks.

Chanya or anyone else with good understanding of Jaroo's LCS and HCR,
I have a pink line on what I think is LCS (highlighted by beige rectangle). Is this correct or is this swing too small?

Thanks.
Some time ago I heard that lvl from which price bounce off fast and strong are stronger, than lvls around which price struggle.

I also think that hcr/lcs of whole trend are the strongest.

And of course lvls which were tested many times.

cheers

I think that this is very good example of lcs. Definitely valid. In my opinion of course. Not the best - it was tested only one, but still very good.
