Thanks for the advice, I could try that I've stopped paying attention to the MBL lately... all I use it for is to know if I'm CT or not...

Don't get me started... It's just absurd, and I don't even know how long it would take for markets to go back to "normal"... You can still be consistent by trading very rarely and hope to stumble on the right setup and not just the next fakey... As ...

I'm trying to trade in the direction of H4. EURAUD was taken because of a divergence on H4, TDI crossed on H4 and so on. I just timed it with H1. GBPUSD was mostly H4, a countertrend trade taken based on APB color change and TDI cross, entered on H1 ...

I'm not saying it isn't tradeable in general, I'm saying I hate doing it, I wake up each morning and sit in front of my screens with disgust knowing that I have to deal with this s#!@ again...

There are articles all over the place, generally it means FED QE, BoJ abenomics, SNB pouring liquidity in euros (I think their reserve amounts to 70% or more euros, also why the Euro is so strong even when the EZ is in the state that it is right ...

This is me about to give up on currency trading, and move to a different market. This stupid central bank protectionism is killing forex quickly. I remember, when I first started, most pairs had 200+ pips ADRs, MO momentum was huge every time... ...

It is - essentially - protectionism... And it is bad for us

Pardon, but you missed my point. My post was directed only to those trading USD/XXX crosses with the exception of GU and UJ maybe. Of course there are still pairs that bring good pippage, although even EA has slowed down much.

Those trading intraday USD crosses (aside UJ), be mindful that your profit expectations must stay realistic. Because of QE, market volatility for most pairs has decreased greatly... Currency trading isn't what it used to be back in the day Phx ...

What's with all the indicators o.O I can barely see your entry, but from what I gather - no. Look at the candles before your entry. You're entering a rangebound market, it is not enough to take a TDI cross.

Boy do I know when to come back... Ridiculous

EURAUD looks like it was good ) I missed it though.

Yes and no, a pinbar is not always a pcrf, but a pcrf can also be a pinbar. Yes, it can have a wick, but it depends how big the candle and its wick are. The good thing about the PCRF is that TDI crosses before APB changes color (as the setup candle ...

I completely understand man. I had a hard time making myself take even the greatest signal before HIN before too. Everybody warns you not to do it, after all. But it's actually not entering a trade a few minutes before HIN that they warn about, not ...

And I don't entirely agree with you either, because you are trying to oversophisticate something that, granted isn't a walk in the park but is no nuclear science either. Money management? Yes, it is important for sure. But the way you do it (not ...

A friend and poster here has a theory that GBP pairs rarely whipsaw during UK releases, too... I feel much more confident trading a UK release than any other. For instance, take ZEW yesterday... My EURAUD short trade survived ZEW easily and even ...

Trading Made Simple

Overslept and am flat today, but how I feel about trades prior to HIN - If you've got a good broker (which means no slippage at least half the time) and get a good signal an hour or two before the release, why not take it? Most times you will have ...

Out goes the euraud main bear trendline, and I was asleep when that happened

I think most of the confusion comes from semantics. When people say price action, they immediately think candle patterns and support and resistance. I figure a good part of PA also comes down to knowing price structure, can't go short on H1 if H4 is ...
