clockwork71 replied Mar 9, 2009If you are serious about learning how to trade, I would avoid anything like this. You need to see the S/R lines for yourself, and not let someoe else do it for you.

clockwork71 replied Mar 9, 2009Funny you posted this chart....I just pulled that one up and placed the same blue area to look for Price Action. We might get a nice pinbar, we might not.....but if we miss it...(as in no set up...) It doesn't matter, enough of these come around ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 9, 2009Yes they do mean a lot. However, if they are weekly ones.....they would have had to hit a few times at same spot under normal circumstances......so the monthly ones show up the same anyways.

clockwork71 replied Mar 9, 2009Whenever possible, I like to see a pullback, and support......it shows "staying power". CW

clockwork71 replied Mar 9, 2009I will post more....(dentist appointment today) but a quick answer is I DO take counter-trend trades, but tend to take profit at first hurdle when I do. (Or at least get to break even at that point.) I don't play around counter-trend.....I take my ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 8, 2009Pretty good. This pair is a bit "muddy" at the moment, so some of these zones are a little thick at times.

clockwork71 replied Mar 8, 2009I agree with the poster about 100 being important. I have a suggestion though: If you can't clearly see a zone, it's probably larger. I think this is a 200 pip or so area. A mess until proven otherwise. I try to only take trades that are dead ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 8, 2009I actually have 98-100 as an area.....so it's kinda in the middle of several things for me. However, I like the shape, and this is roughly what I look for.

clockwork71 replied Mar 8, 2009I always wait at least 10 pips to enter a trade...... Also....I see that if you took a break of that long bar, it would take a while.....and I like to see it break right away. EXCEPT when it's with the overall trend. If it were counter-trend, I ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 8, 2009I know what you mean by "feeling".....but I ignore those. They tend to get you into trouble. Also, someone said something about trading only $300 at first. Are you willing to do that for 3 months? 6? Because that's what it would take in my ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 7, 2009Exactly. Let's ask a serious question here: "Does the market care if you are up 20, 30 , or even 100 pips?" The answer of course is "No." So I would never let that dictate where I place stops. (Although a lot of people do.) I would be more ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 7, 2009Somewhere in this thread, I mentioned that I only use weekly ones because I believe they are the ones that truly matter. To be honest, I don't agree with what he said. However, I agree so much as to say....you shouldn't base a trade (or management) ...

clockwork71 replied Mar 7, 2009A few thoughts on mentoring. — As someone who has been a student AND a mentor, I can tell you very few people make it trading because of the same reason most people only check "some college" on job applications. It has to do with tenacity. It ...
