From what I read now, it is pretty much a good summary of the method. thanks for posting it on the thread! Just one thing I would definitely exclude is the use of indicators (except maybe the SMAs and ATR), especially for newbies. I've been down the ...

as I said, I already got stopped out, waiting for a new setup now. But it was just an experiment, so I expected it to go either way. Sometimes those experiments also turn out to have a nice profit, however, I would never risk a lot on my experiments ...

look at the usdcad weekly chart. Price is right at a huge support area. It should clear that level first before entering any short position. best regards

Hi, what do you guys think of the gbp/jpy daily? It broke the blue d1 trendline to the upside and now testing it from above. As you see on H4 we alreaddy have a bpc. Just not sure if I should enter, the ATR for the day is already pretty much over. ...

you always want a lot of traders and market volume behind you to push your trade into the right direction. Without market volume, you got no momentum and it's easy to hit your stop loss.

Yes, I put in my alarms on the retracement trendlines, and once they get broken my alarm goes off and I look at the chart and see if it triggers in the right session, otherwise I will ignore that signal. Also, you want it to trigger in the first ...

those pin bar things you can learn very well in the james16 chart thread. However, I only use pin bars in trending conditions, not using them for counter-trend trades.

yeah, as I mentioned in earlier posts, for swing trades I have three different entry methods. 1. a touch of the S/R level (kind of predicting the bounce), 2. a break of a pinbar, 3. a bpc or a 1-2-3 with a break of the retracement trendline that ...

There are two types of trades I take. Swing trades, which have to retrace back to an S/R level. And chart pattern trades, which include ranges and triangles. Those don't necessarily have to retrace back to an S/R level. But I generally always ...

but this rule I only have for trading on the hourly chart. If I trade higher time-frames, then it doesn't matter during which session I trade, since the trade is anyways open for quite a long time.

I trade pairs with jpy, nzd and aud inside in the tokyo session, the pairs with gbp, eur, chf in london and cad & usd during NY session. The thought behind that is that most traders in europe mostly focus on european currencies and not so much on ...
