ATC, I also have a full time job that doesn't allow me to micro-manage my trades. Currently, I use a break even EA on my James 16 trades. You can search for one on FF and probably pull up a few different versions to use. Also, you should be able to ...

You guys are all awesome...I thought I knew a few things, but It sounds like the overwhelming preference is to wait for the bar to break to force the price to prove it wants to confirm the pinbar's intentions.

Thanks, Mike - very insightful and all valid points that I need to think more about.

Novice, All of the trades I took yesterday (and since I started my demo) have been based off of J16 setups on the daily. I'm also watching the weekly, but haven't seen any setups yet. To clarify, I am looking for PBs that bounce off of S/R levels ...

So, just clarify - I'm in the early stages of the 3 month demo. My strategy thus far has been to take all "decent" looking PBs on the daily. What an educational experience! Yesterday I took several, and it was quite interesting to see which ones ...

Great advice, thanks.

Anyone take this AUDJPY short trade on the daily? I took it right at the 79.70 level - didn't wait for the bar to break the low of the PB (I know it's technically not a pinbar). I then set my stop at breakeven in the blue box area, about 30 pips ...

1.09 looks like a higher probability long setup (with proper PA) with confluence of 61.8% fibo and 365,200 EMAs compressed. Disclaimer: I am not an expert.

There is some confusion regarding this bar! I think my originally commentary was incomplete/inaccurate. It is a BUEOB (not sure if that is the acronym). This could still be a valid long setup with such strong support. However, the fact remains that ...

Not a pinbar on my charts (FXDD). This appears to be due to the gap that formed over the weekend. I can't give any expert commentary on this, but wouldn't this be suspect because the PB is a result of the gap being filled?

Sorry for the confusion - I live in MST time - market opens on Sunday at 3 PM for me. Is it best to reference GMT time when posting?

Thanks for the feedback, Mike. 1) 90.00 is definitely a big round number that should be respected. 2) Is that bar an IB because the body is inside the prior body, or because the high/low is inside the prior high/low? I've heard it analyzed both ways. ...

Starting the journey — Hello all - I've been studying James 16 off and on for the past year. After lots of failed attempts at other methods for the past 2 years in forex, I'm coming back to what I believe now is the best way to eventually make ...

Great Thoughts — Pipsqueak4x, Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts regarding diagonal breakouts, and also for attaching that indicator. I will certainly take your advice about understanding what the indicator does thoroughly. I've ...

thanks — Thanks for the thoughts. I've studied a bit of Tom Demark's material.

Fair Enough... — I'm looking for a fair exchange of trading rules for the development of an EA. However, given that this is my first post (even though I've read a lot of threads), I guess I'd probably be the last programmer someone would want ...
