{quote} and how many pips if your profit?
when scalping R:R 1:1 is good but you need high win rates.

But I like to use M15 entry for my intraday trading. Using multi-lot entry and multiple exits.

When you say long term, are you talking daily? Looks to me like there are some rather nice super-long term longs setting up in EURAUD and USDCAD in that timeframe.

My 4H swing trading can last anything from 2 to 4 days during the week.

Position trading may last from two weeks to several weeks.

hi everyone how are you this morning. ok, i have a question in mind. BTw i made 20 pips on eur/usd. now why the action has dried out? according to TMS we can enter the second candle. now if i even tried to do that i could have lost. i just wanted to know

First, you are fishing in the wrong tide,
Second, you are fishing in the wrong places.
There are Six coloured Thinking Hats and I read your posts, and most did not make any sense to me.
You must wear only one hat at a time and do the thinking according to the colour.
It is either you wear all Six Hats all at the same time or you did not wear any at all.

This sounds harsh. But it is the hard truth based on my reading of your posts.

what wrong trade?
I don't see any chart being posted.
This is not a live trading room.
If you want to be in my trading room,
first, you need to be a thinking type of person because trading requires us to have a thinking process,
then you need to demonstrate that you can trade using TMS as the core technical method,
TMS is not a mechanical trading system.
It requires discretion by the trader.
And that requires us to develop TMS as a Discretionary Rules-based System and to make that our own Winning Trading System that will fit us individually.

Here is what I mean by a M15 Scalping entry:
I follow the H4 candle high low all the time.
Here we see a previous H4 Inside Bar and the breakout candle by TOK 4-h period, then a Fib retracement ..., bounce off EMAs 50/200, RN 00,25,50,75....

the rest you can read off the chart below.

{quote} if i may, scorp, i stumbled upon this article, which is in a way an answer to another article, both debating who to manage trades. basicly "should we take fixed percentage risks, or fixed amount risks" http://t.co/bubGMMnS6P
Thanks a lot, very good article, I think the author is more into fixed ratios percentage , which I will follow as a starting point

Emmanuel, thanks for recommendation, I will look Dr. Van books

Week 38: This week I am stalking the Euro vs the commodity currencies AUD, NZD and CAD for long term positions. Join me if you want trade EURAUD, EURNZD and EURCAD. Post your charts, we can discuss and share our thoughts behind the technical moves.
Hi Emmanuel

Im also looking at EUR/CAD and EUR/AUD. Here is a summary on my view:

EUR/AUD
- In the Weekly we had a Piercing Pattern followed by a Shooting star after a significant rally at a round Number of 1.50 and former Ressistance. This looks like a confluence area

My Plan is to short at the former Support of 1.4450-1.4480 if bearish Candlesticks appear near this area. If price shoots trough this ressitance i will wait to see if uptrend continues. If Price breaks below the Doij without testing former Support of 1.4450 this is also a Short opportunity but my favorite is short in the 1.4450 - 1.4480 area.

Hi Emmanuel

Here my thoughts on the EUR/CAD

- Weekly uptrend since July 2012. Price made a powerfull retracement at the former Resistance around 1.41. The blue candle reaching the 1.41 and the following 2 red candles form a Shooting star if you look at the them as one.

- The Pair is supportet at the area around 1.3650 and there is also an uprising trendline which is in Place since July 2012 that can act as support. Therefore we have some support confluence below current PriceAction

- On the other hand there could be forming a H&S Formation in the Daily chart. I will put in a short order if i see a right shoulder forming and there will be bearish candlesticks at the top of the right shoulder. I would close it when Price reaches Support area described above. If bullish Patterns are forming i would go long there. If Price breaks trendline i would go short at the retracement on the back of the trendline

- If Price goes up and trades above left shoulder a long position could be possible and a continuation of the uptrend
