Found this one in another thread a while back and figured that I would throw it up here for those that may not have read it before. It is The 5 Steps to Becoming a Trader. Most of the people who have been trading successfully on here for a while ...

Seems like a very interesting point to look at doing something like this. I will say that before saying anything about the trade itself that you have a very clear and thought out plan that will go a long way towards minimizing your risk on this ...

Will be very interesting to see. I almost see the PPZ to be a few pips above the 1.35 BRN too. This would be a trade that I would be out at the FTA though. Wouldn't want to fight the previous bar highs.

Hey thanks Jonas Ha ha right now I don't know that I can give a cut and dry answer of one or the other to you. As of right now I think of my trading situation as a a bit of a hybrid answer. While I am not dependant on my trade account to provide my ...

While I am not a senior I will take a stab at this one. I see things very similarly to you on this one. Not exactly sure what the chart is going to do next. I don't see a strong bullish or bearish commitment yet. As such I am doing things in much ...

I absolutely love posts like this. They refocus the camera in my head to almost take an outside in look at how I am currently viewing situations not only in trading, but also in my life. All too often I have found myself getting so caught up in ...

Been watching ENZD for some sort of reaction off of the wedge pattern. Hopefully will see something interesting happen to signal an entry either way before it becomes wound too tight. We will see. Right in the same boat with your post on GBPCHF . ...

Just a few things that stand out to me so hopefully it may help: 1)That is one heck of a bullish bar that you were playing against in the previous bar and the one that is behind that is not very small either. 2)The close of the pin bar is not ...

Two things: 1) you fib is upside down 2) I would be very careful playing a pin not reacting off of a BRN when pulling off of bearish bars of that size. Not saying that it cannot be done, but I wouldn't play a trade plan that could include a ...

Got to let the ones go that just weren't supposed to be yours partner Remember that in order to grow an account we only have to catch a few, not all of them. Also with respect to missing some pips- that is only problematic if you became gunshy ...

Hey there Bizkam, Just wanted to reply to this even if it was a bit late I have not gotten through the next 7 new pages yet so this is my unbiased reply. The reason why your post speaks to me is that I feel as though I was having this exact issue ...

Ha ha was looking at this chart for the notes that I made about the wedge that this one is forming and saw the objects that I drew for the pin bar that formed about 5 days ago. I have been doing this for a while now, but it NEVER ceases to amaze me ...

Wow nicely done. Just curious where did you place your s/l on this one?

james16 Chart Thread

image Really wish that we could have had a stronger close on this one, but oh well. I see the previous bar lows marked as the FTA. Would be at BE at that point, but believe that a retrace may be possible back to the BRN. Ultimately the bar just ...

Well said. I agree with you that it can be a bit frustrating for a moment. I am prone to that still , but I just release the frustration and move on. With regards to waiting I am with you. I look at being a trader now as finding reasons to not ...

ha ha. That is exactly what I was saying. If the bar is really good (In this case it would not have been for me) then I do not mind trading times that may be lower in volume. The only time that will really stop me from placing a trade is later in ...

james16 Chart Thread

Especially on lower time frames one item that helped me over the long term was to keep a trade pending for only the next bar. I also only take trades once there has been a break of the signal bar. If it does not break in the next bar then I remove ...

Hey there Adilius, Don't stress friend... Just not worth it. Not sure if you were joking in your first statement, but here is my .02 if you weren't. I avoid even making statements like that in my head and on this thread. My main reason is that there ...
