Thanks!

Good point, spartan. This really is a patience game, and it's hard to do in the early days. We mustn't make the charts fit what we want to see, let the bars develop and then make your decision on direction based on what you see, not what you think.I agree, I've set up a daily chart to get a feel for general directional strength. I'll then consider trading the 4-hour chart breakouts if I consider the moves to have commonality. I may miss some good moves, but, more importantly, I may miss some bad moves as well. The Forex market will be here long after me, so a missed trade today isn't that important. There'll be another one tomorrow, or this afternoon.So will I. Just trying to keep us all on track, and avoid the mistakes I have made in the past. I hope they help someone.

Thank you, Peter! I can sleep better knowing someone has acturally read my post. Good trading to you and all others at FF!

Mouteki,
We know you're busy - Yet another question for your list of questions to answer..If you're waiting for an open above or below a 'good' trend line but miss it (cause you were doing laundry or mowing the lawn) do you still try and get in (perhaps wait for a pullback) or does that depend how many pips are on the table before the profit target is reached?

I went long on the candle after break of the trendline ( supply line ). Unfortunately the trade is going against me. What am I doing wrong ?

Nothing, except maybe trading against the trend. No method is infallable.

Quoting mono
UTD = Upper Trendline Reference Points
LTD = Lower Trendline Reference Points
UTD_Line = where the Upper TD (Trendline) was broken or where the TD is now
T1 = target price
LTD_Line = where the Lower TD (Trendline) was broken or where the TD is now
T1 = target price

Disregard the rest.

This indicator needs to be confirmed by Mouteki that its calculating correctly
Mono,

First, I appreciate the indicator. Great work. I just had a quick question about how you calculated the potential profit.

On the candle you would use to to set the vertical line, where you put the first line at that candles apex and the second at where it intersects the supply or demand line, did you use the most extreme candle between points A and B (the ones used to determine the supply and demand lines) or did you use one outside of those?

Give it time...It iwll eventually take profit. Since you are trading against the trend, it is possible that trades will go against you.

Did you also notice the Demand line? Thats what made me hesitate.

You must all the read the manual properly, other wise you'll think the system is wrong.
If you check the method it states quite clearly

The price projection will be 186 pips to the downside once a four hour candle has opened below the demand line. It is key to become accustomed to this technique because price usually reacts quickly to the downside once a candle has opened beneath the demand line. Valuable pips will be lost if the trader does not react quickly in many cases.

In your case it would be above the supply line. You entered too early. Your trade may yet turn into a winner (which would be a bad thing,as a winning trade that breaks the rules will lead you to make the same mistake again) or it could turn into a loser (for all the reasons that makes Forex what it is). If it is a loser, move on and check your next trade more carefully.

Nothing like getting straight to the point cable.
Most methods have weaknesses, and I suppose this has its own. But at least it's getting them all away from CCI - RSI - Stochastics blah, blah blah.
Some are even looking at the charts and bars for a change, which must be a good thing
