Ok, any pair but what TF did you finally use for this "pivot only" strategy?
Pivot Specifically

JR97 question — I'm new to the whole PP strategy and have two questions: Do you trade any particular pair(s)? And what TF do you watch and what TF do you enter (same)? I was following "Pivots Specifically" in the Discussion section but I would ...
Open Trade near Pivot line (Pivot Point)
- piprac replied Aug 10, 2009
1st trade — All times are CDT US (-5GMT) USD/JPY with Oanda - PP =97.25 Sell Stop @ 97.23, filled @ 05:36. Closed manually for +10 @ 06:05. Price was beginning to stall and a 14 period ATR was 11 so I took the money and ran! I hope there is ...
Pivot Specifically

This is interesting. A year or so ago an Oanda scalper said that anytime he could grab 5 pips off the EUR/GBP he'd take it as the pip value was the best. Now it seems I have found how to play this pair. Question: after establishing the pivot lines ...

Trading the Daily — I trade Nial Fuller's pin bar reversal strategy, no indicators at all. You plot S & R & any intermidate reversals if you wish: SL is 2/3 of D. ATR & TP target is 3X SL. Simple. Pin bars are very easy to spot. Also check out ...

icarusfx — I'm not sure if the reverse is true; "Candlesticker" gives 3 high reliability bullish patterns & one bearish. There are also mediums & lows shown too.

serious doubts — I did some reading & looking over old notes & strategies this past weekend and on Candlesticker.com an IB (harami) has low reliability for reversal. An OB (engulfing) has medium reliability. I wonder how much chart watching & ...

"lack lustful"?? my exwife perhaps but lack luster probably applies to a broker. Editing & proof reading b4 hitting "send" should be a habit.

I got back this morning everything I lost yesterday - AIG's announcement was a killer that I didn't anticipate. Today was relatively smooth. Maybe the profits start tomorrow, who knows? Good pippin' everyone, p.

I am using my own bastardized strategy: enter a buy or sell stop 2 pips away from the H or L of the IB itself and then shoot for 10p profit. I only trade in the direction of the 1H trend. I trade the 15M TF, SL is the opposite end of the IB unless ...

The original h1h1 entry parameters said to Sell at the Low minus 3 pips of the trigger bar. I haven't checked to see if this ever got revised.

Not a good morning for me but I did accidently saw something that I will look at closely next week. I only look at the 4 majors: E/4, cable, swissy, and $/Y so I note the D. & 4H overall trend. The 1H & 30M which I trade were many times counter ...

A good morning — I had 4 positive trades this a.m. for +39 pips total and no losses. I basically use M4N's modifications except when using the trigger bar H or L I add 3-4 pips and use a Buy or Sell Stop order. I use IBFX. If I can refine this ...
