{quote} You will have to remove me from your ignore list before i can hunt you. you ignored me because i challenged your eurusdd call. im so pissed with fx-jay right now because he feels his the best around here. so immature of you, i sent a message over to fx-jay apologizing to him but he still ignoring me. oh well so much for maturity. if you ever read this, you need to admit that you made a mistake and you long call on eususd expired same day on the 17th after close of market.

That zone is forming into a stationary zone but unless all the time-frames 1min-4hr lock in sync, one should still expect price to do a little up and down. Right now 30min is also in sync. so we are left with 1min-15min.

its a demo account , i was supposed to use it for daytrading. But i decided to use it to practice scalp trading like eurusdd, ellen,fxjay neio. it was at -4% no big deal. then i couldnt cope with managing my live account with dukascopy and tradeexplore. asforexfactory does tradeexplore for only mt4 brokers. Dukascopy is not an mt4 broker

since i my platform is jforex and not mt4 i tot it unwise to continue using mt4 for demo. i opened a demo account on dukascopy, continued practising . anddeleted the TE, this method of trading needs quick fingers, so i better practise on jforex so i can manage live trades within 10seconds, placing stops, etc

i will post my live account trades if thats your beef. i advice you to focus on learning the system rather than looking for holes

when you get into a new environment, try to bond with the people in there first, until you bond your statements will be invinsible. your first post on the similarity thread was a beef post. and you will be torn apart. similarity will tear you apart. similarity rules

{quote} Vlady, I've been reading and thinking about all the great posts made his weekend and now understand why some people, myself included, get confused. The "problem" is that everyone is interpreting and trading TZs in different ways. Which isn't a problem at all, of course. It's great! Some people prefer smaller h values, expecting the zone to be broken (thanks hepsibah!). Some prefer optimal ones for the 3% probability. Some prefer even larger ones for greater security. Some go for variable h values to try to achieve a constant k value. What's...
We got there in the end!
Hat's off to you for persisting and thinking it through.

I think that one of the great things about TZs is knowing your time scales. Knowing that there's a n% chance of it hitting your target within the next h bars. If it doesn't, then all bets are off.

Decided to check out the 1 hour charts for a change
I was lucky enough to immediately find a 96% probability signal

I was wondering if I should show it closed in my profit history in 24 hours or I share it from now for you guys to check it and possibly trade it.

You already have 4 calls from me, this will make them 5.

I intentionally hid the TP, check the chart & let me know what you think. Lots of people are catching on real fast, I'd like to see your opinions on where the target should be and what's the time for this trades's expiry.

Some people think too many different ideas are presented on this thread. That is not true. Everything will eventually lead to a similarity system. In order for you to be able to link 1min to 4hr, add probability, add sieve and have a sound similarity system, you need to understand everything introduced here! You cannot construct a meaningful similarity system connecting 1min-4hr, robust enough and correct without incorporating TZ. Because TZ will help you identify key return levels for correction.
Just flow along. in time the entire picture will be clear!!!!

Hey Jay, I decided to take a look.
Using purely TZ, I have 3 different TPs based on different tfs : 1.09255, 1.09023, 1.08856. The 1st was from 1H. The last 2 were from 15M. Interestingly, 1H and 15M both had 1.08856 but the 1H was not fully formed.

For purely different reasons that I've decided not to reveal here, to do with TZ, I think the target will be 1.08856... but my research isn't 100% yet. I've decided to join your short but set TP for 1.09255 to be conservative.

EDIT:
Attached chart is 1H view with the 3 prices I mentioned plotted.
