"buy low and sell high"

Ah, you're trying to work out the trend..fair enough. But got to ask, why month 2 in particular, why not month 3 or for that matter, the 3rd week?
For example, the above scenario would have been perfect for FB shares when they hit the low after the release and it took a while for the rates to pick up..
But what about other entities, they tend to hit low and retrace to new highs within 2-3 weeks?
Just curious about the 2 month entry..

I don't believe on this saying, its a kind of act that if we keep on trying to do we will only lose our money. Don't try to picks bottoms and tops. If you try to do that your account will be wiped off rather quickly.

Buy low and sell high hold good at very good levels of resistance and support levels so that there is no much floating loss and traders can rack up good number of pips.

I think it makes no sense to determine " buy low and sell high ", everyone knows that if we buy A at $1 and sell it at $2, we can gain $1.
The risk is if the price goes down, we won't be able to sell high.
Why do you need a example by a chart? my friend
anyway, good luck

If we follow this kind of approach then we might catch some tops and bottoms but it will be difficult. Although it is possible to take such chances with 15 - 2 5pips SL and reward can often be like 10 times.

Yesterday's trades won't help you in the future but here's what I did last night, sold high and bought low. Whomever took the other side of the trade could have longed where I exited as it was only a few pips from the bottom.. aand they would be more in profit than my trade.

Every trader prefers to buy low and sell high - this is simple math so why do you need a chart to work this out? Just google it..

perfect example - sunday night, eurjpy in an uptrend, so we want to buy low and sell high

I bought at 13118, planning to sell high at 132 dead but break even now locked in

Buy Low and Sell High, is a basic trading strategy which is mostly used when people buy when the prices are falling and sell when the prices are rising. The underlying logic behind this is: one which went up comes down and one which went down would ultimately come down. This tactic works best for scalpers or fade traders, who looks for small gains. For the longer term analysis this strategy seems to risky because if the underlying fundamentals are supporting the current price movement, there are little chances of reversal.

This kind of approach can prove risky but there are many traders, that understand key levels of any pair and counter trade the trend to extract a good risk to reward trade.
