I have a trade i normally do on the dow(wall st) on a 30 minute chart. All i use for indicators are my moving averages and the daily pivot points. 10 mins to open of wall st i look at the 30 min chart and see if that current 30 min bar is either above or below my 10,20,50,100 and 200 exponential moving averages, if it is, i place a buy order, if bar is above the moving averages +4 pips for buffer and the stop loss -4 pips below the bar. If the 30 min bar before the open is below all my moving averages i place a sell order -4 pips for the entry below...
Hi

Could you explain what you mean by the phrase which I have underlined, which 30 min bar?

Also could you give a trade example as it happens maybe today.
Regards

I don't favour either direction anymore, I wouldn't sell, and north is looking congested on both Dax and Dow. That'll probably be it for me for today - off to pick the kids up from school. Trade safely.

nice. this is bullish engulfing on 1h time frame (dow). in addition, daily pivot was tested. big boys want to push it higher? long right now?

Fdax (15 min)

We are starting to see higher highs and higher lows on 15 min. chart. It is still early to talk about a reversal but who knows, maybe these are the first bricks for the trip towards the 10.000 level..
