A friend just recommended this thread to me so I hope it's still active. Might be a while before I'm up to speed as there is much to digest from the links on page one & I'm relatively new to forex & only trade part time until I can prove making an income. I currently only trade AUD/USD so any contributions are likely to be from that angle. Good luck!
Hi dab. There's still some activity here. It's definitely worth reading the first 3,000 or so posts slowly to absorb the material. A lot of very good advice. I'd also suggest paging through the rest of the thread, stopping every time you see a chart. There's nothing new in forex, but this is probably one of the best threads on ff.

Hi Dab,

Great to have you in this thread. Please post as i would like to see this thread come back to life.

As Bklyn mentioned, reading through the first posts will help you understand this method. Look at every single chart example and burn them into your memory. U'll pick up the concept in no time.

Ask away if you require any assistance.

Good morning Bklyn,


Any good trades lately? Traded EUR/USD earlier and took a bounce off that 1.2291 level. scalped 15 pips and ran. Its still climbing though. But now its hitting the 38% retrace. of the last move down from 1.2384 - 1.2284.

Great to see some new members here on the thread.

Here is something for your consideration. And If you go down to the four hour you will see a nice rejection of that upper diagonal.

Looking at the same setup. I think we may get a move higher?

Hi at all.

I've read a lot in this forum and finally signed up today. I always liked this thread the most.

Today I entered these:

AUD/USD short @1.04660; I took half the profit @11 Pips (too early but you never know...), by now it's 25pips in the green

USD/JPY short @79.520; It's still fighting, I took it a little bit too late, because I wasn't at the computer. I know, this is a no-go. It's also a bucket pattern to me, 79.570 would have been a good entry; As I enterey too latte I closed the position with minimum profit. Better save than sorry, I hate losses.



A few days ago I entered USD/JPY long @79.104 and took 45 pips (50% @20 pips).



EDIT: AUD/USD got stopped out at break even, USD/JPY would have been a solid one.

Evening,

Just took a short on this one. First time for a hit on the 61 fib line from the last swing down.

Hummm .. You probably have been stopped out.
On the daily will look for a bounce around 102.60 then a short confirmation at a close below 100.717.

I think the spike after the purple lines make no sense

Are those arrows on MT4 platform or done from a print screen?

it is far better to go with a trend with this method. pays more chances for success are better. stop loss also can be a bit wider as well as targets when going with a trend. I do not think 20-40 pips stops are a good idea. more like 1 ATR or 100 pips depends upon which pair.

At resistance it breaks. There is an Up Thrust but no follow throught down.
At the retest of the resistance there are two bars market like spring it means there is some buying at resistance now support. Because the market is supported by buyers.
Chart 2 supports are all well defended. Higher highs and higher lows inside the range.
