{quote} nope, i only trade using your pivot level Davit.. in TMS i just learn about angleator and basic TDI understanding.
You will find out who is who and who can back it up in real stats.Some of the shit I read is laughable like 70% winning rate not sustainable by E
Been scoring that since Jan 2016 every month.How is that for sustainability

Pivot fams been working low key on my patience and 4hour charts.......starting to appreciate it slowly but surely {image}
Nice green pips there.

Couple of points. Remember we are in the probability game. The best set-ups (highest probability) are when price has moved into the 61-100 zone.
Davit posted earlier about entries made around the WP zone - these typically have a 50/50 outcome - so no edge.

I've become somewhat obsessive about this entry criteria, as my win/loss ratio is now above 70% for the last 3 months of trading activity and I want to take it even higher. When I look back at my losses, they invariably came from a lack of discipline and patience - i.e entries outside of the 61-100 target area.

excellent find.I have never traded this pair before.Lets see if it goes up again for better entry
slow mover which is good for position building or it could be real sloooow holding margin while that can be used somewhere else better.
On the fence for now. Like EC and UC better today

Draghi speaking in 2.5hrs.That could move all Euro pairs.Just be aware
There is nothing to be optimistic in Euro zone inflation still in shits so if anything Euro sell off is likely

I don't know how many of you guys actually watched Mark Douglass talk about how price moves.Please do because you will understand why spikes happen before reversals

Notice the huge upthrust before sharp dumping
Does not always happen but more often then you think.Reason why as soon as your SL gets hit price magically turns around going in your direction without you

Watch AU EC UC EG
Keep in mind that UC dropping will make AU go higher so you can't short AU and short UC same time,When you sell USD and if that works chances are USD is weak cross all majors

{quote} Please don't trade real money until you understand what you are doing. Price can turn from 61 78 100 usually when 61 fails next stop is 78 then 100 so you must compensate this by reducing your lot size and entering in increments. Other then that trade just didn't work for you...or could have if you done what I described. Please read the thread or you will be removed.Casual effort =poor results. Let me state this again.People who put their time make money furthermore its on my 1st page disclaimer.If you don't have enough experience you will...
Thanks, I have read 50 pages and both ends a couple of times and watched the MD vid 3 and 4. Yes its just clicked on the increments thanks. I added the cpr boxes found them interesting but now deleted cheers.

your trade is working by the way.So you have to compensate create distance for trade to form. Good going friend I appreciate that you are taking this seriously.We do have lot of freeloaders that stifle energy then move on.I need to be vigilant to work with people who take trading seriously.Remember I am not getting paid for this and spending my own time that I could do something else.
cheers

In my case for WP..
I just set the broker's candle to True.. by doing this, I do not need to adjust/set the start and week end.
Remember when Davit mentioned, that pivot is only a zone area...
differences 10-15 pips.. still OK (from my side), you have to look at the PA.. and TDI.
Green Pips to all..

5M to news (Grandma Yellen).. :-)

hi mates what you are expecting? i think yellen will not deliver anything special and draghi also has no special card to show so market will not move dramatically...
