Trade what you see NOT what you expect

Sorry it took me a while to respond, not been trading too much recently. There are dozens of ways you can trade breakouts. Some better methods than others but none of the are necessarily the right way. Here is the way I trade them and it's served me ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

I also think, like so much in trading, it just becomes self-fulfilling prophecy. Support become resistance and visa-versa. We're told this in every book, every webinar and on almost every thread of every forum. The whole trading community works on ...

Why does previous support become resistance and vice versa ?

Good stuff mate I have never really used the 35/35 rule that EO came up with but i'll keep it in mind more if you've found it reliable. Over the year or so i've been following him and ken, i've gradually taken the bits that seemed to work ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Cheers Ken, not a great deal of progressing of late due to other things but such is the life of us that aren't doing this for a living....yet! Shame about your order but i'm personally not so keen in leaving POs on either, if it's just a bog ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Chart — Just a quick example of what i'm blathering on about, from today. I would want to draw my supply area off the wick on this example due to the wick being fairly large. However, you have this very nice confluence point just 9 pips ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Hi all, not been around here much. Been heavily away with work and early summer holidays (vacation) so barely had the chance to trade, let alone post! Just my 2p's worth here but I think you have to decide yourself whether you are more happy waving ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

I tend to agree. I'm happy using POs at areas where price has peaked at a high or low and very swiftly rejected off it. It's fairly easy to spot these, have a look left and see a high or a low that hasn't been visited for a fair while where price ...

Average win 12 pips Average loss 300 pips That's not really trading, is it?

What is your weekly return?

You probably know this already but this was in your trading all along. I recall a trade you took a few months back on AU. You simply said something along the lines of "I took this trade here. Not the best confluence but I liked how fast price fell ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Good post mate and great way to trade your 4H trendline, letting price guide you in I think the reason that people are so quick to doubt the pip making capacity of EO's approach is because they are either trend traders or swing traders and ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

I think we are well on the way to reaching the point that most miss. An edge in the market may actually have little to do with following a "profitable system". The edge may be sufficient self control to allow yourself to profit. That includes not ...

An Edge In The Markets

Careful shorting EU at the minute buddy, she's been in monster uptrending mood recently.

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

Hi Duffy, The approach that Sam Seiden has to this (and it does seem to be his unique approach from all I can tell) is that picking our zones is about finding areas where supply and demand became significantly out of kilter. This suggests that when ...

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Absolutely not. Even though i've watched the webinars etc, i'd still be more than eager to see Ken's take on it and doubtless his own spin on how and when to use it.

Ken's Continuing Successes with EO's system

Hi, I wasn't accusing you of boasting either, just saying that anyone is able to say that they are a proven trader but it's very different proving you are. I take a great deal of convincing. Don't take it as confrontation, just some friendly advice. ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

I have many losing trades. Some of them are out and out errors but also, many aren't. Many have been perfectly valid and decent setups but the market has thrown us a curved ball. Happens all the time and always will, the best thing to do when you ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

That's really the essence of EO's approach to me. Why worry so much about "trading with the trend" if you get bearish engulfing on H4 followed by a bearish pin off the 50 ema and resistance on M15? The trend may be generally up but if you get that ...
