@Deb, what pair was that?

Tkpower8 ATM

This is the trade I just exited. Entry, Take 1/2 actually ,52 and sl.

Tkpower8 ATM

I get that. What I was saying is that after a bear candle that lets say is 10 pips hi- lo. You put your buy stop +2 from the high, but the spread on e/j is 4-6 pips. The bull candle begins to move up triggering your buy stop, but you have not ...

I also believe when going long the bid has to be +2 pips of the previous bear bar for it to be fully eaten. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Let's all make an effort to keep this thread as original as possible. TK's method is simple and has proven it's effectiveness.

Tkpower8 ATM

wow 30 pip spread on e/j. that is why you stay away from news. @big, i just posted the template on 5 min e/u and it works fine.

makes my 70 miles a week look like a leisurely stroll,lol. Too much ice on the ground in the northwest this week.

Ok let's see if I can get a gold star as well. This is a trade I just exited.

Tkpower8 ATM

Looks like Alan and deepsouth get a gold star and move to the head of the class,lol.

That would make sense as to why my trades were invalid. TK will maybe clarify this for us.

Tkpower8 ATM

My g/u trade. Entry, take 1/2, sl. Gonna take a nap now before next trade zone.

Tkpower8 ATM

Thanks TK, can you tell me what exactly made the trade not valid. Also this is my current long. I see that I may have been a bit premature as the stoch has not crossed yet,

Tkpower8 ATM

Actually, I used a market order and must have got an uptick. Hence why my entry is higher than the low. Hey, if the forex gods are gonna give me a little help, i'll take it. Tk do on longs do you wait for the bid to be +2 above a bear candle?

Tkpower8 ATM

TK, the green arrow, is this a trade you would have skipped and waited for a more solid situation, because of the higher low? Thanks

Tkpower8 ATM

My entry was actually the bar after that arrow. 1- CCI red 2- bear eat bull candle, 3- stoch is below 60.

Tkpower8 ATM

The x is my exit. After the bear candle was gobbled by the bull, I took the rest of my meal and left,lol

Tkpower8 ATM

My current short. Took half off the table and moved stop in my target is .00

Tkpower8 ATM

You must keep your 1min open or minimized because that is where the 2min gets the data from.

Tkpower8 ATM

Stopped out. Maybe time to look for shorts. Tk, if you could please critique my trade that would be helpful to us all. Thanks
