{quote}Why have you chosen usdchf to trade when it has such a low atr, just curious.
HAHA, Lastingwell, after asking this queston twice it finally sank in days later. I was trading USDCHF for a week of so. I switched to GU which has about 25 more pips range than UC. Gains now about a third more. I stopped checking ranges for some reason. A little risky. 5am would be better. Out early, stopped trading. Thanks.

I had nothing new to add, you all have the signals down. Big E would be proud. No new indies, discussing the trades. It is a pleasure just watching.

The only thing I would add, or reiterate, is that M15 can be a bit stressful. Pan out to H1, ideally, H4.

I'm 120 pips down this week which is slightly less than last week

The only good thing I can say about my trading is that I've had the good sense to trade in very small amounts
I'm still losing money but not worrying amounts ,so at least I can 'stay in the game ' and hope I can improve as I learn more

I keep telling myself to ONLY TAKE AAA TRADES , but as Warren Buffet said ''there are some lessons you just have to keep on learning ''
So... Good Trades to Everybody next week !

also watching less pairs, say 1 - 2 because the win loss ratio is easier to keep an eye on. Watching 6-9 pairs could lead one to pick more losers that look like winners because of where the pair is in the win loss ratio. Yes? No? One could pick 3 likely winners that in reality are losers, starting a week out on the wrong footing. How many times are there 3 signals from 9 choices. Which to take? All?

{quote} ...bet your patterns would be awesome on H1 and H4 robuk
That's something I've been thinking seriously about , but they do take a very long time to form on the higher time frames , so maybe there could be some coming to the boil in a couple of weeks

Also I'm a bit concerned that some may think they are not really TMS and I don't want to upset anybody , but I'm only trying to help and they are really just another way of showing S/R in a more pictorial , and sometimes predictive way

Edit
They are not my patterns , I'm only a beginner , the best known I think is the Gartley (From Mr Gartley in 1935 )
The others from Mr Pip (Ratios and Harmonics , Forex Factory )

... trade more pairs then .. if the patterns take a long time to form, it means the trade will have an enormous amount of pips
