I still don't understand your entry-criteria, Glen and Ally.
price action/patterns around dustbin levels

EU 20 pips EY 50 pips only when EU JPY EY line up ( same direction)

price go down ..i sell

price go up...i buy

price go nowhere...i wait

it is that simple...really

it's a very complicated formula which cannot be explained easily hatch

i can tell ya there are 2 VERY important action that involve counting to not only 12 but you got to be able to count to 20 also. gleneagles is much better than i and it shows. he can count to 40!!!!!!!! now how good is that
Baby, I can pull those levels in my sleep, I just can't see the entries you're showing in your charts...

Sorry, ma'am... that is.

There should be complicated candle-patterns, open-close-algo-calculations that make my calculator go tilt etc...

eagle said it plain and simple:

price action/patterns around dustbin levels

he is really good at patterns and that is the biggest difference why his trades always look so much better than mine

i am getting there but long way to go to get as good as he is at it.

What, if I told you, I could help you making it happen for you?
I just need to do a bit of translation work for you, and if Glen's statement about the entry-criteria is true, I'm going to make you a star.
Sounds fishy, doesn't it... just kidding, but I'm going to do the translation work you.

I can't do anything here atm... was shy of pulling the trigger, because I was looking at the other direction. 2781 is the target, with a bounce-probability at 2802 first, before reaching it in my books.
So, the gameplan is to stay out atm, until 2781/82 is hit and bounces on weakness. A close below that one will make me bite my ass.
Well sure sound very rational not jumping on the lows on a knee jerk reaction. 1.287x is not broken yet mate but I agree with levels below. Also strongly agree that the juicy move is on the other side but short term FA wise there absolutely nothing to help the cause yet ...but tomorrow is FOMC, don't forget....

IMHO, forget about that 1.287x (good target short but poor blind entry long) for the rejection play. Better level in my charts at least is 1.298x .....the only level to track in my books mate,..... I am not interested at all in catching the ultimate top or bottom in a swing so ... let see how it goes...

Europe closing and talking heads and politicians in charge of twitter so ...trade or stay aside accordingly .....

Here.....

I traded like a bit like a granny today..waited for confirmation and sworn statement that prices will go down

I marked the patterns at the levels that I am looking for

plus heatmap/rsi indicated short on EU JPY and EY

so I look for confirmation and patterns around the levels to trade

exit was because I expected a bounce....no confirmation before exit but pinbar did form after exit

ADR was 200+

Hatchi, Hatchi, you too should try looping fractilizing (or was that meant to be infantilizing) highly sophisticated re-do dustbins!!! Ever considered that?

20 pips levels inside the 50 pip levels during the consolidation

everytime the 3 line up , a big move will happen on EY (200 +)

i battle to trade EY with 20 pip levels

as soon as it starts to move the candles are bigger than 20 pips

I only do that in secret places, and I am in a lot of places... no time to explain, pvt-area possibly, access only on request, and depends on quality of request...

Quality of request... what is that supposed to mean... as a man, I have an idea, but I wouldn't that quality from just anybody...

just out of curiosity, Sisse, do you still stand by your argument that I, along with piptrapper, were wrong about the eurozone fundamentals and that we were unable to see the CHANGE FOR THE BETTER in FUNDAMENTALS as you so confidently proposed a couple of months ago ?

No offence, but you are strictly a technical trader...and thank god...cause that and only that is what is making you profitable.
