Hey Jib, Mike is definitely around. He is directly supervising the new site project so I guess a little preoccupied. hang in there bud. Let the mistake sink in and for the mind to consume the lesson. Even if this means taking a little time off and ...

It actually does have some tiny space to make it to those bar highs there if it breaks. But you're right in that this looks far from tradable as a short trade. Good stuff being able to realize that Winston g.

Here's another that's on the watch list for me. Also shows why we always recommend to be extremely careful when shorting PA bars at swing lows and longing them at swing highs. Unless you really know what you're doing you could fall right into the ...

Took a similar setup but as a fake out setup (which is how I trade). I am normally very hesitant to share much here on this thread about this method as I don't want to steer the direction of the thread off the basic material which is all that the ...

I don't think there would be anyone in the world who achieved success right from the word go. It takes a lot of trial and error. A lot of failures. In fact losing or failing isn't bad at all. It really only re-enforces the fact that you went ahead ...

Hey Jib, For the first chart, that is a valid breakout scenario looking at the double top and the lovely congestion inside the wedge. The breakout point though for me would be a little earlier when we formed the bearish IPB (see chart below). Seeing ...

Hey Jibson, This is a good example of how a long at a swing high can be justified by a bullish story from under. Clearly that BUOB was a breakout of the larger and the smaller consolidation box that you drew. This means that instead of just looking ...

Awesome! This was about the age that I stumbled across this thread myself. Time flies. You probably don't even realize now how much ahead that puts you. I didn't either. At least not to the extent that I realize now staring back into ...

Hey Jibson, The uploader seems fine for everyone here. What exactly is the issue? (maybe you can quote the error message or something?) g.

Absolutely P! Many people feel the right thing is also the easiest. Its most certainly not. because leaving the safety of the herd by its very nature is inviting risks and rough rides. The toughest part is to seek all the motivation and inspiration ...

Hey Dan, Good work. When you're expecting momentum and you suddenly get that "notorious hangup in the middle" where price fears to even close beyond the prior bar's low, you know its time to sit up Great to see you beginning to realize how its ...

Hey P, Yes there does exist the possibility of taking trades without a PA bar trigger but its an advanced concept and one that I would only recommend digging into once you have had ample practice with the basic material first - that is if you might ...

I hear you P. I am in the same boat. In fact I have recently graduated and just made the toughest decision of my life. I chose my heart over mind. I left the safety of the herd by choosing to NOT do what the other 99% graduates were going to do. Get ...

Hey Jibson, We actually did end up with a fake out. Just looked so much on the cards seeing how price suddenly accelerated into that major former swing high so late in the day. image I think you need to frame that trade and use it for reference ...

Couldn't agree with you more. I think its unfair to think of trading as a business that requires very little investment. Just like any other business there are some solid basic requirements to make it in this business. Access to trading capital that ...

Hey bro, That looks like a fairly tricky trade. Always is when you're trying to buy at an extreme high following a bullish rally. Notice how price has actually just accelerated through a prior swing high. These are literally the favorite times for ...

Hey Jibson, Ideally we like good strong closes on our outside bars so this would have been a pass for me personally. That wick was always pretty likely to get filled like it did due to the close still being below the trend line but the outside bars ...
