Appreciate the insight - interesting and logical. I'll try and incorporate the principle in more of these situations

Thanks for the advice Dr G. You know its funny you should mention that, i make these type of trades quite often. Often if they're correlating with other factors (ie S/R, Fibs, TL's etc) - i make a killing. However, other times they tend to really ...

Cheers, I'll stay alert... GU's just closed gap and now in at yesterday's high, i might just put short order at 5655

It's my own psych downfall, you are an authoritarian figure so what you say has some impact which instilled some fear/doubt to take the long - so thats my bad really. Anyhow, DR G do you have a view on the AUD? She just took a tumble and not sure ...

Probable bud. If we see a surge in vol now it's obviously due to PMI news. In less than 1.5 hours we've done 100 pips +, 75%+ of daily range. My opinion is that we would likely see a little retrace now before the next wave up.

Here's the second chance entry which again I didn't take as fear crept in when Dr G reminded me about the news . Testing at 1.5526 on m5..

Very true Dr G - hopefully PMI will bring her back to test the 55 level

That looks awesome Dr G...Will Check it out Quick question... I'm sure you know a trader by the name of DBPhoenix.. would you recommend his book?

Long EU — Happy New Year guys! plenty to look out for and mentors to follow. Mal, HG, Intel, DrG.. Cheers for making this thread rock! Lets make 2011 memorable

Holiday Greetings — Self explanatory short EU. High Volume Up bars completely absorbed by sellers. Evident in all tf's however the H1 and M30 allowed easy entries with the No Demands marked. p.s Wishing you all great holiday season and a ...

where we headed? — So Mal, It's evident that there's influence. Can it be read with VSA? The more impact algo trading has - I would assume that we would be losing more and more control of reading the charts?!

Thanks for the response's Intel & Mal. If we work on percentages of the overall market. We as retail traders are price takers (2% -5%) whereas the real SM (not large speculators) control at least 70% (conservative from the common 90% which we are ...
