I also hope it's ok TS, to just this once add in a HOLO trade here as an additional example for 9fxnan.

As I said in my previous reply - and if you hadn't waited for the later entry as a 1-2-3 (or already been in from the first bar as would not have been stopped out), here's how you now switch to a HOLO set up...

I took that same trade on the GU Lemer. Did get stopped but had profit by then with my 80% rule. Ditto now on the EU short, currently +7, we'll see if it decides to play ball or not. I suspect it may move higher, but I usually lose when I think.

It's getting a bit frisky as it gets near 04540...I've locked in that +8.

Edit: Looking at last week's close level now.

Edit#2: Bounced off that level now...tighten up those stops!

Edit#3: All done eventually for +14. Lovely.

Don't you know that even Cadillacs sport DeadHead stickers these days - Don Henley saw one, lol.

I'm just nosing around today as well. No trading at all - in fact haven't even checked charts yet.

Anyway, will wish you a happy New Year and see you back in a week.
