Pretty dead today, took one trade on oil, passed on another in gold. Passing on gold was a mistake, but wasn't feeling it. Since I had only 1 trade I let it tun
worked out ok.

I took last week off and was really looking forward to a good day today. But not much action. Tomorrow is a new day.

Nice trade Richt3. No trades for me today just got up about 15 mins, ago. Last night turned into an unexpected party after dinner with friends, but thats why I live in Mexico, so I choose what I do, no schedules.

DFortinati, I live in Mexico and trade from 5am to 8/9am. FX probably provides best opportunities or most opportunities any way. Start the day with usually 6 open charts.
Thank you!

Ok, so this is my first trade this morning. The yellow vertical lines are respectively when I started to look for a trade and when I was done.
If you have any notes for me it will be appreciate it.
I have one question and it regards time frames, I find ATR to be much more clear for me (when I looked at FX charts this morning I couldn't find anything).
Am I doing anything wrong?
Thank you all for being so helpful and thaks for this system.

Dfortunati, Nice trade. There is nothing wrong with using ATR i use it on some futures also, use the system as a starting point and find your comfort zone.

thanks RP.
Hey, on TOS do you use the Active Trader from the charts when you enter your trades or do you suggest different settings? Excuse the stupid questions but I usually only use TOS for options trading this is the first time I am trading FX or futures with this broker.

Hey DF, Do not use active trader, just click and trade on charts, I trade simple use market orders to open and close trades, maybe I'm an idiot many people have told me I'm doing it wrong, but wtf works for me. The upside to that method I'm reluctant to chase my entries.

Hi RP, do you have any PA, S/R, or any books/material about divergences you would recommend to read?

Hey RP, I use market orders to open and close my positions as well. I am more concerned with getting filled than anything. typically price does not change by a lot and my orders are filled right away. Years ago when I started trading everyone said use limit orders only. Many bragged about get filled on the bid when they wanted to go long. Every time I tried that (and my friends that I knew tried that) it was always a loser.

Hey Kthrapp, Trading for the simple minded eh.
Lol RP, If I have to think to hard I get a head ache. So my trading is as simple as possible. For me it takes more confidence to trade than skill (text book knowledge) when trading the short term. I have a whole library full of trading books. It helped me learn the markets and how they work. But my trading is probably more simple than most. I had to unlearn a lot.

Hi Pabuuu, here are a couple of my favorite books on trading. 1) The Day traders bible (or my secrets of a day trader in stocks) by Richard Wycloff. This book is 80yrs old back in the day when you had to read the actual tape as trades happened. Good book. Is all over on line. 2) The New Trading for a Living by Alexander Elder. A lot of good information and simple. 3) Trading Chaos 2nd Edition by Bill Williams. A little more involved but still pretty simple and a lot of good knowledge.

Blessings and good trading.

Trading has been a little slow for me this week also in FX. But I read a couple of books. Played some Solitaire and made some Home made bread. Not my usual activities during trading hours. But a good week.
