It is 2:10am here, so excuse me if the explanation is shorter than usual, I have tried to indicate the main points on the chart above. This is a fantastic setup, apart from a ranging rainbow, and here is why.

We seem to be in the beginnings of a developing down trend, at least in the short term as the rainbow has folded over and switched direction. Price turned right on the upper BB, and we are well clear of any SMA support to stop a move down. The CCI produced a quick blue zone signal, and shortly after a zero line bounce, and to top things off, we have a close subsequently below yesterdays low.

In terms of stop placement, the daily pivot is just above to hide behind, and really on a quiet day, a move to S1 would be a fine profit today. I now go to sleep with targets and stop in place. Happy trading!

Hi Akuma,
It's nice to see you back amongst it and great to see your chart analysis.
Thanks

Glad to see you, too. Hope you feel better... I was realy missing your chart lessons, from wich I've learned alot, maybe I have a lack of Momentum and 'violate' data...among other things.
How to read it from chart, if there is sth( moment.,'volality') behind to predict a move...(maybe this is what we all searching for??....)

Have a nice trading days to come...

Like today was, when after news- ECB Interest Rate Statement- E/U,B/U fall down under....Made me a some pips too.

Greetings Akuma, glad to hear you are feeling your self again. Soup? Not bad stuff if you fix it right! I have a bowl every day rain/shine, winter/summer with my special ingredients; Fresh vegies, Mung Beans, and Long Grain Rice. . . It is actually my one meal a day that i have at lunch time. The rest is mainly a fresh fruit here and there and a handful of walnuts/almonds : )

I really enjoyed reading this thread. I read it from start to finish in one sitting, and I think I am going to add your template to my Euro Profile. I especially like how this system may help me know when to let my winning scalps run. Thanks again Akuma and I look forward to your manual.

First, I'd like to say, great job Akumma on your trading techniques. I have read through this whole thread (some of it twice). When you use bollinger bands, do you just use the indicator that comes with MT4, or is it a custom indicator? The reason I am asking is, when I put up the BB's, I get that line in the middle and I see you do not. I can't seem to figure out how to get the middle line out. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey renasdad, very observant of you, it is a custom Bollinger Bands indicator, it is identical to the default other than the fact you can change the colour of each individual line. It is attached here for you.

Hey all, it's been a while I know, but the soup worked and things are back to normal. Here is today's trade I opened, short on the EURUSD looking for a continuation of the trend, and here is why:

The trade is opened right at the upper Bollinger line, possibly signalling the exhaustion of the small corrective move just before the opening of Europe. The rainbow clearly shows the downtrend is still in tact, certainly nothing to fight against. The 100SMA and 200SMA which can act as barriers, are above the price and well clear so there is nothing to stop a move down from that respect either.

We are well into a blue zone, and the 50CCI shows signs of a zero line bounce, a nice trigger, and as a bonus, price is sitting right below the daily pivot line. My stop sits behind the 100SMA, but really it shouldn't test that far if the trade goes as expected, while the ultimate target is the 161.8 extension of the recent corrective move, which happens to fall right at the daily S1 pivot line (off screen).

All sounds great in theory ... let's see in practice.

Is this what we are looking for? Bottom BB and 100 EMA with the purple fanning out?
