EURUSD may continue down... if we get rejected at 1.2850 I will short it to the 1.2700.

EUR/AUD See what happend last time 200SMA was tested but I dont like the double top that is already confirmed. Kind of a mixed scenario here where CL may act as Resistance.

Hi Bones,

I love your charts!

I would agree with you on a continuation of the bearish move started recently with the D1 pinbar. There is a BEOB on the weekly ( FxPro feed, can't post any chart right now unfortunately...).

take care,
Slow & steady

Hi TheLastCoke,

Thanks for your answer. My mistake is that I did not consider this CL.
However I have question : when I look your graph your PPZ is (as on mine) at 1.277, but you are using the CL at 1.28. Why then not to put directly the PPZ on 1.28 ?

This is maybe a basic question, but learning where to put the S/R lines is the most crucial thing to learn.

Yep, would have love a W1 close below the TL...
there was a significant D1 move after the pinbar so I would accept a 50% retrace before the BEOB breaks, but an immediate move down would be great

AUDUSD - I m just planing to sell it around previous candle low. will check how it will open after weekend of course...

AUDJPY not so clear picture for me... It depends on what will USDJPY do.. both sits at their resistances. will it reject it or break up? let see....

Hi,

Anyone else looking for a close above 81.00 on cad/jpy? We've been boxed in since mid August, with the 80.00 BRN acting as a pivot inside the consolidation box. Obviously price could break above or below the the consolidation area, but i fancy a break up, could be wrong, but I feel its an area to watch

Kind Regards
Sanil

Hello,

BIG thanks to everyone especially J16 & Mike (mbqb11) for your inspiring teachings, I love this thread!!

I have a couple of newbie questions which I hope you don't think too silly...

1. I've been demo trading WEEKLY & DAILY for 3months now and found no A++ setups but plenty of what I would call B setups. This is leading me to think whilst I wait for the A++ setups I could trade the B setup Pins/Outside bars and move my stop to break even as soon as I get a close (beyond entry) off DAILY hoping to catch B trades which seem to have a bit of momentum behind them???

2. When I eventually find a retracement from a breakout would it be a good idea to look at H4 for any PA bars if there aren't any on DAILY? Does it increase the chances of finding an entry point?

Also Could anyone recommend any good books which would be helpful with J16/mbqb11 style trading... I've studied 'Price Patterns' - Martin Pring (what an excellent book!)

Glad your OK Mike! My thoughts are with everyone affected by Sandy! Your input would be much appreciated...

Thanks again.

Hey Zee

I put some notes on your charts. Notice the difference b/w some of them in terms of what jumps off the chart.

Also a tip on posting charts to make them viewable

Right click your chart. Click Save as picture. Then click active chart as is

Hope this helps
Mike

Hi Mike!

I want to thank you the chart instructions! These are very useful to me.
In my pictures was one or two good for newbie, like me??? If the price is in a box, is not so good for me, if i understand you correctly.

these pictures from 7 years...

Hey MR

I'd be careful. My feed closes at 5pm et on fridays and we can see a much weaker close then yours. This is important to me because while this is a pinbar that weak close doesn't give me much confidence to sell this bar. Often times these fill back up higher before a stronger bar gives us a reversal.

I could see possibly this rising TL holding us, but if it doesn't hold right away there is a good chance this one won't work. A much stronger close would be a much better signal. These are ones I prefer to avoid because of this lack of clarity. What I like to show is that we can always game plan trades but then as traders we must individually decide if it really is worth our time and risk. Many times i have a very good idea what price is going to do but that doesn't mean I am willing to risk my money on it.

Hope this helps
Mike

This is something you can demo, but I do also worry that this leads to poor habits. I would first personally suggest expanding the markets you watch. So if you are only watching 20 something pairs, watch 70 pairs. Watch stock charts, futures etc. I think expanding ones markets is easier then trying to expand ones tool box. At least initially. As you get better you will see there are more things that you can consider an A trade that you might not have. This comes with time. But certainly any ideas you want to test as long as you are doing it on demo are really always ok with me. No two traders will be the same.

I think it does and it's one of the few times if ever I drop down in timeframes. For me breakouts I will look for a pattern, then watch for entries both on that timeframe as well as a timeframe lower for entries. To me this is much different then dropping down timeframes AFTER finding PA looking for a better price. With a breakout pattern your location or area is still the main focus

Haven't read many books I feel worth recommending. I put some in my profile here, but in terms of technicals most are just not worth it to me.

Thanks so much! Spent the day gutting my girlfriends house which got 5 feet of water rushing in, destroying everything in its path. Quite scary. I am still without heat for another 7 days they are saying. But it could always be worse
