yep at some point everyone's posts were basically cut in half. THe posts were not lost just not counted in the post numbers now. No idea why

Mike
Back when the PF moved, the posts from there were no longer counted here I believe. Hope you recovered from your birthday.

Hi Mike,

I would like to know your thoughts on PA bars formed late on Fridays on the 4 hour charts. Would you consider taking a trade the next week or would you just ignore it as profit taking at the end of the week?
Hey Sujith

Generally I am a bit weary of late friday intraday bars. BUT if the location is fantastic and the bar formation if fantastic I have (although more rare) put on trades early sunday based on a 4hr chart. Generally speaking I tend to not though and wait to see how intraday shapes up into the new week

Hope that helps
Mike

~Hi Mike, thanks for the chart. I always look forward to your chart posts...

When I draw TL's I use the 'top points', I notice yours seem fitted to encompass more touches (like your latest chart post). Do you have any tips/advice on this?

What do you think of this AUDUSD Daily Wedge?

Cheers, Munk.

Hey Munk

Generally the best advice I can give with any tool is using the obvious. Now I know at the end of the day we will all have our own ways of doing things slightly but the more obvious something is the better. The more I find a chart can only be drawn one way the more confidence I have in those lines/patterns etc

As for aud/usd since you are zooming your daily out I prefer to just check the weekly. For me the descending TL on the weekly is the better TL to watch in confluence with the 1.05 BRN Now for the daily I think it makes more sense to look at the box(which does intersect with the longer term weekly TL. And the daily rising TL is something to watch on its own(but I wouldn't draw it from a weekly standpoint). Certainly the very choppy action is interesting as we have slowly moved higher but no big breakouts so we could see one coming very soon. I am watching this pair for more info

Hope this helps
Mike

Hi Mike

You said: 'Price gapped here so TL makes sense from the previous high before the gap'

Why does it make sense?

Thanks for your help.

Here is the reference: http://www.forexfactory.com/attachme...3&d=1354900855
Hey Hunz

What I wanted to point out is that even though price looks like it moves through the TL, the fact that price gapped there(area of interest, liquidity) makes it ok for me to have that TL start at that point where we can then see price reacting nicely afterwards. This to me is just a way to confirm that my TL is ok and because of that gap being there I understand better why. If there was no gap I would be more weary of the TL I drew

Hope that helps

Hey Suraj,

I would argue over the size of that bar. Notice how a longer nose would have given it a better look. Notice also that a longer nose would have gone on to hit the more important confluence area marked by the 150 ema + PPZ + 9400 RN + trend line. You can see how price sort of missed that more important interest area,

Additionally try and locate your bearish pin bars higher up into the pull back or preferably at swing highs. This one is tucked up pretty close to the prior swing low which kills it for space a bit...

Hope this helps.

I can really sympathize with your situation, everyone does this at first.
You need a mental image of a good sized bar at a good location.

Which is going to be stronger, the BEOB with no space or the weekly consolidation area TL, the 150 EMA with the 61.8 fibo?

I'd say the level around 1.2850 ish

I'd take all that rubbish off the charts and just watch price for a while.
You may actually be able to find a good PB if you do.

Also, if I hear correctly, you entered short based on that poor PB that did not even get triggered?

All those emas and indicators on the chart is exactly the opposite of what this thread is about, your stochastic is giving a buy signal and there is no trigger but, you sold?

As they say, "you can lead a horse to water but can not make it drink".

You are well on the way to, the path to the slippery slope to, indicator hell.
Why not, we have all done it. We just wish we hadn't. LOL
