Would you mind sharing your routine with the daily trades? I mean what are the steps....monday morning you look at the charts and check for TDI cross , levels, and PA and decide... ? You go down to h4, h1 ? does it matter?

250+ pips sure are inspiring .

ty.

But what entry point you had ? bc i can/t see any cross on the above chart except for the one on top (15-17 dec or so...)
250 pips is around 1.47.

The only entry point i see (on H4 tf)( and plss corect me if i'm worng) is on the 7th or the 8th 1.47-1465.

Thank you.

ANd SJ is saying that When I check the trade at the N/Y open I look for s/r levels. Should I
liquidate out or hold it? If I hold it I'll check it at the N/Y end of day and
see where the levels are and what the bar looks like. If it's a pin bar I'll
liquidate out. If everything looks good I'll let it run...

He checks this bar daily ? h4 ? h1 ? at the end of the NY /......

I think the usd/jpy is a very interesting chart.
On the 1 hour chart you can see how the NFP news
moved prices around. This is why it's so hard to trade
NFP data with huge swings...

One more chart.
On the eur/usd, look how flat (tight range) were in.
I think the flatness & how the chart looks is interesting.
It's telling us something...

Shabba,
Look at the daily eur/usd chart.
It is after the NFP data, Friday morning, N/Y session.
See how flat the apb is...
It would be time for me to liquidate out of the trade
for the weekend.
For a daily trade, the day ends at the close of the N/Y session.
But I look at the bar when I get up (start of N/Y session).
When I trade the daily chart...I only look at the daily chart.
Looking at the other time frames will only confuse you!

I entered at the Asian open on Wednesday and let it run (Second to Last Bar), I checked it a few times but it continued on. I was aming for the ADR Low of 1.4444, it ended hitting that support target point today. I took my profits and ran.

Shabba,

Look at my eur/usd 4 hour chart.
(maybe I said it wrong) Look at the tight
small range. 9, 4 hour bars (9x4= 36 hours in a tight range).
(The apb are small & tight in the range). It's the foot print
of money & it's trying to tell us something. I'm not sure yet
what it's telling us...but something! Every apb is saying something
to us...the market is talking to us...we have to listen to what it is saying

Ok. But why enter there? i cant see any cross, or daily trading does not need a cross.

Hope i am asking the right question.

Shabba,

I hope I don't get into trouble for say this...

Have you ever watched the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean"?
There is a saying in the movie that stuck in my brain.
"Their not really rules...they are more like guidelines"
We use a lot of guidelines to show us the way

Their is another pirate saying that I think blends in very well.
"Take what you can & give nothing back..."

Shabba,
Their are a bunch of different entry signals.
1). The Tdi.
2). The Pac.
3). The guppy's.
4). Price action.
5). Confluence (s/r levels).
6). The Apb's.
Every market is different & every set-up is different.
We look at a lot of different markers...The more markers
going in our direction, the higher % of trade were in...

I hope this helps you!
