Fxpivots,

- how do you judges presence of trend direction ?

As there was ABC and still you were looking for short.


- do you place pending orders or at market price ?

Thanks.

In post 279 i attach graph after abc i entered long and it was loser, whereas in your graph with explanations the following peak is marked as not comfortable to enter short at that place, so you were still in short mood. This puzzles me.

Sorry for ignorance but can you please explain "h and type pattern " please.

Thanks a lot fxpivots. So only and only after head&shoulders looking for pullback opps .

Edit: just as you said fxpivots , after H&S then pullback. A while ago closed trade for full 15 pips. Will post graph after a while. Thanks again fxpivots. Now practice and patience.

Hi FX,

Thanks so much for this thread. I only found it yesterday, so lots of reading and trying out. A few pages left to go. I'll try some trades later. Thanks again for sharing.

Take care

There was a nice trade this morning at 1.2913 just before London open. The last pull back of the trend was however a loser as price bounced fron yesterday low (first arrow). Better to avoid trade when there is an obvious S/R just below last pull back.
