{quote} You seem to be off when it comes to timing. Do you open the trade with the intention of adding to the loser if it becomes one? Just curious, this seems to be a dangerous practice.
Yes BB, my timing is not as clean as it should be per the rules, viz. entry after renko bar closed across the allaverage 3 at reversal, etc. It's due to the time here, +9 hours gmt, plus I have other commitments.

And yes, cost averaging is not for new traders and should be avoided but I have confidence when I do that.

For your other query, thanks Dee50 for taking care of. It's midnight here and I will often be late in responding.toppo

Dee50:
I have the question about two first trade(Long,30 and 32 points)
What was the reason to take it?You draw div on MACD and Stoch.But first trade:we have price hole higher and on MACD indicator is lower than earlier hole.I understand that is correct.In the up trend almost every low is higher than earlier.But on Macd is should be lower and than you get in trade?
until now for me div correct wa when secon peak is higher but macd is lower.That is weakness symptom of the trend.

Hello Matomi,
Thanks for your sharing. I was trying to use some of my older scripts in order to "close all" orders (1 by pair, and 1 for whole basket), but they do not longer work.
I wonder if you have any of these in your treasure box?

Best

{quote} I use exactly this principe with my hotkeys - if I see a potential entry, I press CTRL+B or CTRL+S on actual candle and my Buy stop or Sell stop are placed on open of previous candle, or if you want, I can rewrite it to previous high/low of candle. I must not do anything else, everything I manage with hotkeys. Here you are, put it into "Scripts" in your Data Folder, via navigator set up hot keys (do not forget to refresh platform between steps) and you are ready for scalping: {file} {file} {file} {file} {file} {file} {file} {file} {file}...

If I understand your question correctly, you need to familiarize your self with Hidden Divergence. There are a couple of PDFs in the attachments section dealing specifically with divergences.

My current trades on S&P and DAX. At the moment +160 or so.

Second trade on S&P was a stupid idea, I just dropped a trade there when it was breaking support, and had a big drawdown. Well, this is something I should avoid, or close that trade ASAP. I had +140 on the first trade, so I didn't care they average, but still shouldn't to that. I should have waited for the retracement in order to enter.

I also learnt to have more room for drawdown or SL when looking to trade from bigger time frames. This helped me to handle stress and all that sentiment you must be aware off. BUT, I would love to learn to have tight SL as you guys are doing.

I'm learning big time from this thread. Thanks to all contributors specially Dee, and Jaquemate (although he's not around anymore)

Happy trading

I did not take that entry because of the 2B reversal Pattern + Divergence at the last high, I was expecting a deeper pullback to the BRN and Trend Line on the 10 pip Renko chart.

Don't only look at the 5 pip chart what is happening in the HTF is important because there are more traders looking at the HTFs and making decisions on those than there are looking at the lower TFs.

Closed my trades for a total of 300+

Great results, with a basket of 1 great entry, 1 not so great entry, and 1 big time sucker entry.

Need to keep on learning, continue building my rules and respect them.

Have a great day all

This keeps me having hard time... I now noticed a divergence formed when I closed my trades in S&P. That was a great setup for a long trade, currently at +90 in 8 minutes. Amazing move. Had I noticed before I would have taken it. Also, to be honest, I didn't close the trades because of that, it was just close to a support area.

Any ideas to spot divergence fast? I know this is somehting I need to have by building more and more experience. Or maybe there is an indicator for it?

The Close script for 1 order is in those uploads, you can see. But Close script for all orders I do not use, but it is question about 5 minutes for my friend to code it. Nowdays he is really busy, but you can try to write in thread there in FF, coders will do it for no charge Meanwhile I will try to ask my friend.

BTW your last picture, I would not rely only on divergence, look how much divergences fails every day in every trend. Better is confirm it with another signals, personally for me divergence is secondary signals, primary is always S/R, Fibo, BRN and PA
