Trading is as simple as ABCD

Ok its 1200hrs here in London so we're heading into a no trade time zone again... Mr V.'s pre New York open anti LO trend move so sit aside for the time being and wait till NYO gets into full swing then go from there, wait to see a real move setup , bit of CAD news around 13.30 hrs so let that go by then have a look...

Thanks for answer but i think it's broker realted... so with my icmarkets and your indi same pivot as before...

Theres two things I can see from your chart that interets me...

One is that it looks like you're 2 hrs ahead of my platform so that I believe could explain it but I'm no expert on these things so your daily candle closes 2 hrs before mine so the calculation will be different... not sure which would be best time to use??? Anyone got any thoughts?? which daily candle close is the best to use for pivots etc..???

And the 2nd thing I've noticed?? You're 44.9 pips up today!!!!

Keep it going ....

Back when I was using pivots more religiously, I would check mine against this site http://www.actionforex.com/markets/p...2010040955112/ .

The only way I was able to match mine up with these accepted pivots was to set my start time in the indicator to the beginning of Sydney, end of New York time. For me that is GMT-5, or 5:00PM EST.

The only reasons pivots work is because the mass of traders use them and "believe" in them. That being said, I behooves you to set them up to what the mass of traders accept as the "correct" pivots. This site will help with that.

Use the ones that Vantage offered. Here is one that I was using. You can also set the Camarillo pivots with this. I only used those when there was extreme movement the day before on a pair.

OK well we are past the CAD news and about an hour into NYO so hopefully there will be something setting up..

Don't hold your breath looking at the TTindy can't see any particular strength or weakness just looks like a bit of a mish mash again. maybe USDJPY as a reaction to NFP last Friday but not sire so sit back and wait for something to show up...

Not one of my normal pairs but its setup so lets give it a go...

Grabbed my fiery friend by the tail but just don't trust these counter daily moves down....so straight to BE before she turns and burns...me!!!

Better late than never...

Took a quick 7.4 pips out of that EURCAD last little spurt...

But look at its chart, I should of been trading that chart all afternoon...top of 5 min TTindy so know its been top of 1 min..



But I wasn't because I got myself attached to this GBPJPY which was a bloody nightmare , was chatting to Martin on skype and just scalping GBPJPY took 84.6 pips out of it today but it was hard work and why??? Why wasn't I trading the far easier , piece of cake to trade EURCAD??? NYO runner or breakout trade??



I've been doing that a lot lately getting attached to one pair and ignoring whats going on with my TTindy. Especialy my little pet Japanese Dragon...

Going to get back to basics tomoz and just watch the TTindy to see what sets up the best then go from there...

My system is simple, find a strong trending pair then wait for a CCI pullback and take it with a 10 pip stop. Bank the momentum run at point D, job done...

Just look at the EURCAD , look how many CCI pullbacks to the 100lwma worked like a dream...even that last one I took went about 20 pips in the end..Maybe we should just take CCI signals off of the 100lwma????

Probably pushing my luck here but just give it one more go off of yesterdays high providing good support and a nice place for my 10 pip stop..

Top trender Just keeps giving, another 13 pips to take it up to 20 pips...end of the trend in sight so just Orphan grabbing for now...

Has it got one more push in it???

Nope its done its 131 pips today and its had enough and so have I.. It looks like it might go again but to be honest I'm pushing my luck with the very late stages of the run plus late in the day too..I need to get into these runs a lot earlier so need to keep a close eye on my TTindy and also might start watching some of these big movers so I can catch the initial reversal before they even appear on the TTindy. Mind you might be worth waiting for them to come to the TTindy as then at least I know the trend is set just have to wait for next pullback to enter..

I'm going to try and do a live webinar of the London Open tomorrow if anyones interested will be easier than posting and I can call my trades well before they happen with any luck. First time I've attempted anything like this so bear with me if it all goes horribly wrong...

If anyones interested I will post the link here later once I've set it up. If it goes well will probably do it all week....Start at 06.30 gmt..

Hi Guys

I've had a lot of PM's asking me about my strategy , many guys are mystified as to how I keep entering the market get to BE so quickly, all on 1 minute charts!!!. Many have asked me to teach them my method . So i thought the best way to do that is a simple webinar of me trading "live". I'll just do what I normally do and you can watch and ask questions as I trade. If it proves popular I might do a few more this week..

I'll hopefully be able to show you exactly what I do when I trade including my initial analysis of the markets then each trade as I take them, manage them and hopefully take profit...

I feel a bit nervous about doing it as I've never done anything like it before.. but thought "What the hell??" What have I got to lose it will be fun...

I'll be there from 06.30hrs to 10.00hrs GMT or until I get fed up with it...

Lets hope it all goes well and I don't cock up due to the added pressure of an audience....

You'll be able to ask questions and I will answer as I go if I can trading permitted..

Come along and see what you make of it if its successful will repeat everyday this week..

Here's the link to the webinar https://www.anymeeting.com/WebConfer...de=978-534-752 starts at 06.30 hrs GMT.

You will be asked to register on entry and asked to do a feedback poll on exit, only once I promise and you won't need to register again thereafter...

Its all totally free of course...but numbers will be restricted so its first come first served I'm afraid, so why not come along and see how it goes...

Clive - a great idea and a suggestion if I may. Record it and you can put it on youtube afterwards for posterity.

Thanks Mike I will do good idea hope it goes well a bit nervous I might mess up. never done a webinar before or traded with an audience???? feeling a bit nervous

Oh well just a bit of fun more about showing people what I do than anything else....Got 2 choices I guess, up or down...

hey Clive

Best luck with your webinar.

Look forward to tomorrow 6.30 sharp, is there a dress code?

Great idea Clive! See you tomorrow!

Ha Ha yep won't be let in unless you've got a tie on...

Good man will be nice to all get together and don't be afraid to call any trades you see...
