Focus was the Daily pin. Wanted to capture that retrace. (Or one more attempt later on down further if it failed) To be honest, I didn't think to draw the up trend line at that point. (came later on though.) My thoughts were: ...Should at least hit ...

I wouldn't want to force anyone to complicate their job by using both. You don't need to to trade profitably. I've just come to use many many many tools to help me feel the beat of the market and get really good entries. PMs no good. Can't send ...

I use both. At the same time. Very successfully.

When your not as comfortable in the first place, it just makes it more stressful when you see it go against you. I'm about less stress.

james16 Chart Thread

lol.

Yep. Great set up. I'll be in it. Any Base system playas out there?? ( I add the 200 EMA to it)

james16 Chart Thread

LOL ....Here I am forgetting my current trade on the very same pair!! I was watching around the 23% area on the second smallest (Purple) fib I've got on my chart. I've just closed half and set BE (around 1.5148) . It shot straight through the level ...

Hi Marco, Myself, I'll consistently look for potential trouble spots. You can try and select trades where there is a clear run behind them with little pause. Kind of the 'Space' as Mike will mention. The two mostly go hand in hand anyway. The chart ...

Haven't you seen the movie "The Sixth Sense" ? Have to admit. It was playing on my mind that people here may take it personally. lol

james16 Chart Thread

You're right. I'm going to have to set up some pre-emptive bitch slappings for myself.

james16 Chart Thread

Stop you guys!! Too much Mikey ego stroking in too short a time. Now I'm going to have to send some barmaids around to his joint to bitch slap him back to reality!

james16 Chart Thread

Because we would have preferred the close to be within the previous bars range. Edit: Mike beat me. Teach me for not finishing the post off before taking my phone call. lol

Not a head and shoulders urchman. There's a lower low to the left for starters. Trading that pattern would be the same as trading a bullish pin who's high and low are encapsulated within a range/traffic.

Less volume is usually a factor in wider spreads.

What would be a surprise result? The outcome couldn't have been anything unexpected. Not at the moment anyway. I don't trade NFP. Couldn't care less. But it's always interesting to look at.

I wouldn't beat yourself up about that pin Pipmyride. It was pretty ordinary to my mind. ...And you can't be in on every fast move, either.

james16 Chart Thread

lol. ....It's funny how I've given that impression over the past couple of years! I'm not a big drinker, BTW. XMas / New Year time I enjoy myself though.

Hey! ...Synchronized laughing fellas!! ................................................................................................. ...

No worries John. Anything to mess with your head. ..lol

Good chart oltciter. You should probably place your buy stops clear of an area such as the one I've marked out on this copy of your chart. Also note the horizontal line I drew further up. Shows another possible stumbling block. When you reach this ...
