{quote} true, but you're trading with strength. {quote} Yes, and I'd add also 840, that swing low...but it looks like it is going to play out well. good luck, although u don't need it

Risk free was almost taken out but the bears were able to fight back. This is buying country and I"m against the expectation so protect I must. {image}

I'll hang out a little while longer but I don't see myself getting into anything else. That was my entry and it might not move much today. I stand by my decision and I'm happy with my $20

{quote} EA {image} Now short but its a risky entry so beware. Any sign of the bulls coming back in with force and I'll close it out in a heartbeat. Masterrmind..........
The final short of the day.
ps. ignore the spread as this post comes after the market has closed and in any case spread usually increases nearer the end of a trading week.

I would like to thank Mastermind for his detailed postings it is very time consuming and difficult to do while trading. Thank you your efforts are greatly appreciated. This also goes out to all of our contributors and their selflessness and willingness to help. This is definitely an amazing place to learn and share our experiences with you all. I am very pleased and look forward to 2017.
Thank you for your very kind words.
It is a challenge sometimes getting to post enough detail in the charts as trades progress sometimes rapidly.
During the Asian session this tends to be easier due to the usual slow PA but in London and NY its a different ball game.
I appreciate your live postings too and certainly many aspects in trading can be learned no matter who the trader might be.
I too look forward to 2017 and especially the progress of this small team of traders right here ... great group of like minded professionals.
The place to be in 2017.
Good trading,
Masterrmind............

{quote} HI Masterrmind, thanks for posting your charts. What I don't understand: You go short but as per Mr Pips rules you should have looked for a long because we are creating NSHs. Do you trade another "system"? Thanks!
It might be a better idea that I post trades in the direction of the order flow.
Just be aware that there is short term and long term order flow and taking say a short trade during a longer term order flow that is UP may not necessarily be a bad thing but it will likely be of a lower probability (but certainly not always).
I guess in the Asian session I tend to counter trend trade quite a lot off ABCD reversals, exhaustion levels and chart structure.
This is because of typical reversal patterns shown in the Asian session.
Perhaps from January 2017 I'll do the following in regards to my posts to this thread based on your comments:
1. Asian session = trades that follow either short term or long term order flow or short term and long term order flow and CT.
2. London session = Only short term and long term order flow; and
3. New York session = Only short term and long term order flow.
Short term and long term order flow means a trade may only be taken when both order flows are in agreement with each other.
Let me know if you'd like me to trade Point #1 above the same as Points 2 and 3 and I'll only post trades that meet that criteria.
This would mean that I would not be able to trade harmonic patterns, ABCD reversals or any other trade that goes against the recent or longer term trend shown in the order flow including small opportunistic pullbacks against the trend.
On the good side however you would only get to see trades that are in complete agreement with shorter term and longer term order flow.
Let me know what you decide and I'll happily oblige.
ps. I do not plan on posting any trades that are far outside the content of this thread although a small variation surely is permissible.
