its ok, i already figured out humans long ago.
some don't even recognise God.
anyway, this thread i wrote.

i know.
same thing happens at the bank.when i was ceo, no guards ever denied me access.
now i also no access.

maybe i should call first, make appointment.
but i guess the secretaries also will ask.

Hi - all.
Back to trading lightly - been AWOL - hope all are well - especially FTI.
Thread is quiet.
I would like to ask a question re peeps trading management re the situation where momentum is say long and you are going long but price bobbles long in small overlapping waves not strong legs - I have seen price do this for ages but I am never sure best way to trade this - I have seen it bobble like this and then run strongly and seen it bobble like this for so long moving long all the time covering great distance and never sure when to add when take out to gather pips and nos to put in on pullbacks. I trade in m5 - looking at m15/h1/d1 too. Any advice most welcome. Maybe a silly question to some but not to me so be kind I am feelin fragile.
Thanks
Alex

Hi - all. Back to trading lightly - been AWOL - hope all are well - especially FTI.
is good to see you back my friend
the blue lines in the chart below off the highs on the uptrend are all the same size, i would use the average time, which session and the last low and high to judge if i am holding on too long.
regards
Phil.

Hello Everyone,
Firstly, i want to thank FTI and everyone who contributed to the wealth of knowledge this decade old thread contains. it is quite the read! I have read through the first 200 pages a couple of times and have searched through the much of the thread in order to understand this approach to the market. I am however hung up on the concept of "flowing with the market"
I am wondering if it goes against the MO to enter in the direction of the 5 minute trend if it is going against the hourly and daily trend ?
as you would be flowing with the market in the NOW.. obviously with a small position and being aware that the longer term trend could kick in at any moment and you may have to cut it and reverse.
Or should i only be waiting for the 5m trend to sync with the hourly and daily to enter in essence joining the flow?
Obviously the latter may be more ideal as you would be on the side of the larger trend. I am just wondering if the former example is frowned upon . Or if it is "flowing" with the market as FTI speaks of. Or does it just make me a pig
For example, The eur/usd has been in an up trend on the daily and the hourly until yesterday when the hourly and 5m showed a double top then headed south for roughly 90 pips. I was wondering if sending in a scout and foraging for foreign capital with the idea that the longer term trend could kick in at any moment and id have to readjust my position was in line with the MO. Or is this the wrong mindset?
Im wondering if having a bias in direction that is based on the larger time frame is being Rigid and might affect the way you are reading the market in the now. Rather, using the higher TF to asses the possibilities and just flowing with the 5 min trend.
so in short... Trade the Flow or sit it out and wait till the 5 min joins the longer TF
Thank you!
