GU NYO 28 Mar:

Looking at the last H4 close when NYO, it is more sell than buy..
anyone with a different view?
I favor short, A close below 1.2760 would get me in Swing trade. FOr long i want to see a break and close above 1.2840 .

Goodmorning,

Here is a couple of trades that I took last night then went to bed.

The aud/usd got stopped out for 25 pips or (25 x $10.00 = -$250.00)
((What can I say-yuck...)).

The eur/usd is still in play and trading between my stop-loss and entry.
I still think the eur/usd is in a long term down trend (bearish) so I'am
going to let it run and see what happens.

So the "Good, Bad & Ugly". I try to let people see my trades for
better or worse. Their is no 100% but I can average 80-85%
winners with a couple of losses thrown in their. Losses are to be expected.

Hello fellow traders,
nice to see that Big E's thread is back alive and keeps going
with long time TMS traders contributing like Emmanual and Snarlyjack.
I traded with TMS before, and due to my timezone (EST),and its simplicity, it fits my trading,
on longer timeframes
here is my GU trade taken on H1.

Hi ,
Thanks for posting. .
How'd you mange your trade?
I mean i see that you stayed through most of the red bars , what gave you confidence to stay in?
I have the same resistance on my chart 1.5199.
I missed it yesterday, it would hve been good 70-80 pips for me on a 4-hour chart but on 1hour im not sure.

Hi winner,
I entered on H1, trade moved to my direction nicely, later I got follow up signal on h4,
I was up about +40 pips, moved my SL to BE, and went to sleep, that pullback almost hit my BE SL,
but then turned around and tp was hit.

If you based your trades on support and resistance, perhaps mention what form those S&R, for example if you use previous day week high lows, or anything else.

I don't see your trade entries and exits on your charts posted.
Only the blue rectangles and magenta circles.

Your entry was on the 2nd white candle, right? that looks like a bounce off the lower channel you have on your chart.
the down channel shows a flow down, which indicates this is countrend.
also you have the pivot shown from IBFX, but the price bars don't look like GMT000 server. My IBFX broker show different from yours.

manage well...look out for top resistance.

Trade Well.

I'll make a request, does anyone have the PDF of the rules of the BIG-E in Portuguese? if someone can please put it here? I have but these are in English and my language is not English, and so it is very hard to understand the rules even in translating google translate.
thank you in advance.

but you are writing in English which I read is good grammar English like mine. LOL. I am not English either.

I know language pose a problem for many here in FF. I know Big E uses a few technical descriptions which can be explained using chart examples.
So please tell me which page of the Big E pdf rules you have difficulty with. I try help you in a technical explanation to read your charts.
Better if you post your chart with question,this is a good way to learn and practice.

sorry emmanuel. should have been more specific

Blue indicates where I entered. They yellow dotted line marks the entry time(LO). The magenta circles indicate a SL. If there are two blue squares, it means that the trade was profitable and the second blue square indicates the trade that TP was reached. The support and resistances for the EUR.JPY was mentioned by snarlyjack. The support and resistances I mentioned were my trendlines that I drew in Red.

Any advice appreciated

market type is consolidation with narrow range.
difficult for trend traders.

Friday 29 Mar is bank holiday in the UK and next Monday is Easter, so most European markets are closed. I think US holiday too??? Its a long weekend... enjoy.
Think of it, how often do we get 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays in one month...ENJOY this much more.

Do not expect any big moves unless the big economy lke China choose to do some meaures so that it does not hamper its own local market while the others are closed. The after shock come on Tuesday if she does anthing drastic. I doubt.

M15 trading will be good in such thin market.

Trade Well.
