DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Congratulations! I hope it makes it up past 1.0000 and continues upwards for you! Although, the 1.0000 level holds strong psychological resistance and may prove hard to break though... if price stalls don't panic; just continue to analyze and take ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi goldenFishie, That's ok... noob questions are welcome! It is very easy to get confused as to which trend to follow... which is where I try and keep my trading very simple and base it on my analysis of the daily charts (although I use ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi Shotshell, It does seem that way. My chart really was just meant to highlight the many different possibilities and angles that could be taken - which is why I tend to follow the trend that is shown on the daily charts (in the formation of higher ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi Pirabuji, Your first question takes us into the slightly more advanced topic of counter trend trading which I would like to try and avoid for the moment. I would say however that yes, in these instances where the trend could be turning I do take ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi dan89, Thank you too for your kind words. Last year I wasn't trading with such long term goals, I was mainly trading off H4 charts and taking hundreds of pips at a time as opposed to thousands so it wouldn't really be suitable to compare that ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi Zol, Thank you for your well wishes. He's getting better now thankfully... last couple of nights he's had me up a lot so I could do with a rest lol! I thought we were going to get a pullback on the Euro to at least 1.3500 today - a place where I ...

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi Pirabuji, Yes this is definitely a strong area on G/U. My personal preference though would be to see price get above this level and then come back to retest it and fail... sending price higher (which is where I would be buying). Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Sep 29, 2010Hi, Good eye! There was one more daily position though that I took from a shooting star off s/r in the 1.3800 area as shown in my attached chart. All pretty simple/obvious trades right!? Also, that final position you circled I actually took from a ...

DanUK replied Sep 28, 2010Hi Pirabuji, I had been selling before that but in my opinion price had rejected support around 0.8200 and moved higher up above 0.8500 before retracing back down and forming a bullish signal on the retracement - closing above the next level of s/r ...

DanUK replied Sep 28, 2010Hi Location, I don't think that applies so much to my trading. I would say if you were taking a counter trend trade then the size of the bar would be more important. Whilst a good sized bar is a better signal it is not essential to me - the most ...

DanUK replied Sep 28, 2010Hi dmuk, The basic rule for me is that if I am looking to go long I will be waiting for price to pull back to support. If I am looking to go short I will be waiting for price to pull back to resistance. So in this example, AUD/CAD is not of interest ...

DanUK replied Sep 28, 2010Hi Scarlett, I tend to "fib" the most recent engulfing swing in the direction of the trend and I quite often draw them in conjunction with trendlines. For example, chart 1 is one view of the EUR/GBP using the outer trendline (assuming you believe ...

DanUK replied Sep 27, 2010Hi bboyomega83, I would say the same as your answer... quite a lot of breakeven trades, a few losses and a few wins. This is where the men will separate from the boys - in having the patience for the right trade and the wins... but when you have the ...

DanUK replied Sep 27, 2010Hi guys, I will be back later to answer all questions... but just wanted to say I'm not keen on trading upwards at a swing high... generally I would be looking for bullish engulfing bars to form at a s/r level on a pullback. Getting in at the high ...
