The BOSS rules!

well, i see this BUOB on your Chart, but its nothing special, isn't? i think the right area makes the bar special (and it was a messy sideways market)...btw i don't have an BUOB on my feed.

No, nothing special, just a bullish candle in a Boss UP swing!

i took a short after the Boss bar (inside bar/doji), because it looks like a nice continuation of a downtrend to me and took a loss ... its ok, losses are good, but the question is: Is he was avoidable?

[color=Blue]Oh, YES, most definitely!...
thanks Strat! see clearly now...

Hello Strat,

I have a question to ask you. I'm sorry if it was already discussed, maybe I have missed it.

I believe I understand your methodology of PA at S&R, how you enter trades and where your S/L go after entry. That I believe would be at PA that give you entry signals highs or last swing highs for sell positions lets say. What I don't remember of being discussed and not in your system writeup is how do you take profit or how do you preserve profit, which is also very important as one with same system can loose and other can win just by using profit preservation / profit taking methods. As all say that most important thing after psychology is trade management.

So if you would be kind to share, how do you use this? How do you not let 300 pip profit turn into a loss and how do you let the position taken early at the start of the trend continue for 2000 pip gain? Or is it that you take profits at S&R with PA against your positions and wait for another PA to enter the trade?

I'm sorry if this was already discussed. In this case just send me away and I'll try to find it. It's a long thread and probability of this somewhere there is huge.

Kind Regards,

kaunasny

"Someday we'll know if love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know why a trade just might not be for me...!"

Hello Socaliforex.

Welcome to the thread.
Now, I am not saying your trade won't work. I simply do not know.
We can never know.
We can only ever know if we have put the probability of success in our favour. Now what does your boss tell you?
And his Boss?What has he to say?

cheers,

enjoy the thread - it's a good read.

Hello Start,

This is the “Holy Grail” of all “Holy Grail” questions. If we “knew” the answer to this, I can assure you we would not be sat here writing to you!


But first, you need to change your thinking on:


As all say that most important thing after psychology is trade management.


Trade Management “”IS”” TRADING PSYCHOLOGY – the 95% that does the financial damage to traders.


If you have been in a situation where you have let a 300 pip profit turn into a loss then it was because of YOUR Trading Psychology which, in simple terms is, you have let your “Little People” control you.


It has little to do with your trading style or methods – I believe this only represents 5% of our success in trading.


How we control the voices in our head, our sub-conscious, the demons, the devils or, the “Little People” as I call them, represents the remaining 95%.


I regret I am unable to answer on here because Trading Psychology, Trend Trading, Trend Add Ons and Swing Trading are all major content among others on my Private Website where this question, and many more are all discussed in detail and it would be unfair to my subscribing members to do so. I hope you understand.


However, I will tell you that you need a completely different mindset for Trend Trading in your Trading Psychology to be successful than that for PASR. I also advocate separate accounts for Trend Trading.

My first try????

So here you are in October 2012 on yet another thread asking the same question. Let’s look at where you have been:

Dec 9, 2008 The key to the mint

Feb 9, 2009 EURUSD

Mar 15, 2009 Silent Service Method

Jan 4, 2010 4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

Jan 31, 2011 Trend Lines Don't Work

Oct 4, 2012 Strat's Long Term Stress Free Trading

Allow me to give you some SERIOUS advice.

You are typical of the newbie, rookie, amateur, wannabe trader, hobby trader, lurker, tyre kicker who frequents these threads and forums “ hedge hopping” from one to another in search of the elusive Holy Grail system/method which will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

DECIDE whether you want to be a forex trader or just a “hedge hopping blogger”.

There are a few methods here in Forex Factory which work and are profitable but you have to WORK at them and STUDY them and become an EXPERT in them. Choose a method which suits your style and personality and WORK at it and STUDY it as if your life depended on it. You need to become a MASTER of one method to trade rather than a Jack(ass) of all trades.

ACCEPT and UNDERSTAND that no method, system, black box, software, robot, signal service is PERFECT. They ALL lose at some point. I suspect this is the reason for your travels as you stay with one method until it goes through a losing streak. Your success as a trader has only 5% to do with your chosen method. The other 95% is your Trading Psychology which you currently exhibit very little of.

To be profitable at trading, you HAVE to treat it as a BUSINESS and be the CEO of your business.

Either GET SERIOUS and start your Trading Business or “get the hell out of Dodge” before you disappear up your “where the sun don’t shine”.

Strat shadow is doing its job supporting price. A lot of information to learn here, look at those candles closes. They were unable to close below Strat shadow meaning there is a high chance price will go higher.
