{quote} Free strategy webinar takes place from 7PM - 8PM UK Time. This is the latest e-mail from Tom: I am on holiday from 12th - 27th August with limited access to email. Please bear this in mind if you subscribe to any of the special webinars between these dates as the process for sending them out is still manual and has not been automated! I will send out a new schedule for September upon my return.

That's awesome 4FXsake, my MM wasn't good on this one and my orders kept getting missed trying to get back in.

To top it off I also lost a quick 20 playing the sfp pin of 9057.

Price took the next swing down @9042 before turning for a +50 rally.

Feel a bit out of the loop now and looking at the daily I'm going to wait.

Hello guys! It's unbelievable, but I've just found that thread and according to the recent posts I trade the same pattern as you. Like naked trading, no indicators, only price. May be you have any other materials, recorded webinars or something like that, it will be nice if you can share. I already downloaded all pdf mentioned in the thread, what would you recommend as my next steps? How is it possible to attend webinars? Would like to extend my knowledge on this patterns, great to see, that people have the same thoughts. Also I made script (compilation of several existing scripts) which I use in placing limit orders, I set risk 1% per trade, and when I place it on my chart I input only SL, and it counts lot size based on my equity and size of SL, and also sets TP=2SL. IF somebody needs it, drop a word. I analyze 2 times a day about 25 trading instruments, so it's very useful. And thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Any comments on this SFP? It worked obviously but not the point. Would others have stayed away due to it being the 4th time back to that level? I was aware of it but also the last reaction from the level was very strong

Thank you very much! May be you have any other ideas what to read to get involved quicker in your thread?

Some of my trades today with short descriptions.

GBPNZD. Nice trade on price bounce signal (don't know how you call it). Price was about -5 pips in red, and torpedoed after kissing the level.

GBPUSD. Was closed by BE.. But afterwards touched TP level, it's playing with me. Anyway, it's market.

USDJPY. It was closed by my EA, which closes trades if they don't make 10% of TP during 90 minutes. Reason for it to take only perfect signals with strong departure after a kiss In this example I would have reached TP, if I don't implement that rule.

My twopence FWIW.

Where would your stop be? A possible 400 pips away? Too much - especially 4th time back. With such a large difference say first time back (ftb) I think Tom would look at a Fib retrace back into that daily candle by going to the hourly and picking a good level.

Anybody watching UsdCad? Keep watching for the fall back to 1.0444 or SFP at 1.06077 July high.

I'm on Twitter and occasionally post there. God knows why really.

PS Pretty dodgy colour of files and filing cabinets Andy!

Couple of points, Tom doesn't trade these pairs and the Daily candle is only used as a bias so in this case we've been left behind as price never looked back.

Yeah, all looks good to me, though I'm not a fan of the RR in this pair (burned to many times) it's great for SFP's.
